‘Gabriel Campillo’

By Boxing Press September 12th, 2009 All Press Releases
Beibut Shumenov and his promoter, KZ Event Productions, Inc., have filed a lawsuit in Kazakhstan against Gabriel Campillo, Sampson Boxing, LLC and Sampson Lewkowicz seeking a judicial declaration that, as a result of Campillo’s blatant
violation of the drug testing rules of the Kazakhstan Federation of Professional Boxing and the WBA, Campillo, Sampson and Lewkowicz have, under their contracts with KZ, forfeited any monies otherwise due to them from the August 15, 2009 Campillo-Shumenov fight. More...

The upstart hero of Chimkent came up empty handed last night as would-be super prospect Beibut Shumenov failed to unseat reigning WBA light heavyweight champ Gabriel Campillo at the Daulet Sports Compex in Astana, Kazahkstan.
But it wasn't for a lack of effort or skill as 25 year old local man Shumenov had plenty of bright spots and even had Campillo canvassed and hurt in the ninth frame.
It really came down to experience. Campillo had it and Shumenov didn't, providing the Spaniard with the margin of victory after he dropped the challenger in the 12th round.
Shumenov hit the gas early, looking to use his strength advantage and steamroll Campillo but "Chico Guapo" knew to maintain distance and pick off the younger man on the way in with sizzling counters.
The southpaw also took some flush shots from Shumenov but Campillo's wiser pacing let him largely dictate the action during the first half of the bout. More...

The WBA light heavyweight strap is at stake tonight at Daulet Sports Complex in Astana, Kazakhstan as heavily-hyped local prospect Beibut Shumenov attempts to unseat newly minted champion Gabriel Campillo.
Spanish southpaw Campillo, 18-2 (6), came into prominence in June by moving up from super middle and toppling WBA titlist Hugo Hernan Garay in his native Argentina.
Campillo had previously held the European Union 168 pound crown after losing a majority decision to Karo Murat for the full European crown a year ago.
Shumenov, 8-0 (6), couldn't ask for a better shot at winning a world title but still, the Las Vegas resident will be taking a step up in competition from what he has faced so far during his less than two year old professional career.
The 25 year old former Kazakh amateur star has seen off name opponents during his last three bouts but former light heavy champ Montell Griffin and ex-super middle champ Byron Mitchell were far and away past their best.
Campillo probably doesn't have enough of a punch to bother his aggressive rival so he will have to outbox the local hero, drawing on his greater experience and southpaw stance to take away the confidence of Shumenov.

At Sunchales in Sante Fe, Argentina last night, WBA light heavy champ Hugo Hernan Garay was upset by former Spanish light heavy titlist Gabriel Campillo, who pulled off a 12 round majority decision shocker.
Garay, of Tigre, Buenos Aires, won the vacant WBA belt last July with a decision over Yuri Barashian at Buenos Aires' famous Luna Park Stadium and was coming off a successful defense in Germany against Juergen Braehmer in November.
The native Argentine was expected to retain against Madrid based southpaw Campillo, who was coming off a narrow loss to Karo Murat for the European super middle title last September before winning the European Union 168 lb crown with a hard fought UD over Lolenga Mock in March.
Looking to take control of the bout from the start, Garay commanded the center of the ring during the early rounds and put his greater experience to good use to keep the challenger on the defensive, much to the delight of the 5,000 strong pro-Garay audience. More...

The European Union Super Middleweight title changed hands on Sunday as Spanish southpaw Gabriel Campillo pulled off an upset of reigning champion Lolenga Mock at the Holmegaardsskolen in Kokkedal, Denmark.
30 year old Campillo, 17-2 (6), was coming off a narrow loss to European Champion Karo Murat by majority decision last September but the man from Madrid proved to have more in the tank than the iron-chinned Mock, taking a 115-114, 115-113 and 116-111 unanimous decision after 12 hard rounds.
For the 36 year old Mock, 28-12-1 (12), this is likely just another career setback to overcome as the Congo born Aarhus resident has endured many such disappointments in a still viable career.
Mock fought his way out of Kinshasa, going 17-0 to start his career before losing a ABU Super Middle tile clash to Joseph Marwa in Tanzania in 1998. More...

It was war in the ring last night at Seidensticker Halle in Bielefeld as the European Cruiserweight Championship was waged with great ferocity between defending titlist Jean Marc Monrose and former world title challenger Marco Huck for twelve rounds.
Monrose sought to take away the challenger's height advantage by turning the bout into a phone booth clash and it worked to a degree, putting Huck onto the backfoot and on the defensive early.
But Huck learned a great deal in his failed bid to unseat IBF Champion Steve Cunningham last year and the 23 year old Bielefeld resident focused on not getting hit and patiently waited for opportunities.
And the free-swinging European Champion gave away those opportunities as he came in and was picked off time and time again by flush shots from Huck but the challenger wasn't able to dent the Frenchman's impressive chin until the twelfth and final round when the action was called to a halt at 1:17 of the frame.
Huck improves to 22-1 (17) and becomes the new European Cruiserweight Champion while Monrose drops to 24-2 (15). More...

Seidensticker Hall in Bielefeld tonight sees a big show with two European title fights on tap for the cruiserweight and super middle crowns up for grabs.
Former IBF Youth and French titlist Jean Marc Monrose, 24-1 (15), makes the first defense of the European belt that he won by stopping previously undefeated Johny Jensen in the first round back in May but will face experienced Yugoslav born local man Marco Huck, 21-1 (16), a former European Union title holder.
Huck had blasted his way through respectable European competition and earned a title shot against IBF Champion Steve Cunningham in December of last year. Despite an edge in youth and perhaps strength, Huck was no match for the highly mobile and fast-handed champion as Cunningham won by a 12th and final round stoppage.
European Super Middle Champ Karo Murat, 17-0 (11), will also be making his maiden voyage as a Continental titlist, having taken the trophy from seasoned Italian southpaw Cristian Sanavia in a hotly contested bout this past April.
Challenging Murat will be left-handed stylist Gabriel Campillo, 16-1 (6), a former Spanish Light Heavyweight titlist who comes to Bielefeld riding a four bout win streak.
On the undercard, European Union Light Middleweight kingpin Christophe Canclaux, 36-2 (22), of France faces Estonia's Albert Starikov, 11-9 (4), over eight rounds in a non-title bout and cruiserweight prospect Geoffrey Batello, 16-0 (13), meets Walter Palacios, 19-15-2 (11), over the same distance.
