Shinny Bayaar

Shinebayar Sukhbaatar 'Shinny Bayaar' (born 27 August 1977) is a Mongolian professional boxer with British nationality fighting in the flyweight division. He is based in Oldham, Greater Manchester and is the former British Flyweight champion. At the end of 2007 Bayaar had improved his professional record to 10-4-1.

British citizenship and the title Bayaar fought twice in 2008 beating Ghanaian journeyman Sumaila Badu in April and Spaniard Jordi Gallart in November. In 2009 Bayaar trod water with a win over journeyman Daniel Thorpe before having his application for British citizenship granted and being given the opportunity to fight for the British Flyweight title. The fight for the title on 23 October 2009 took place at the Bolton Arena and pitted Bayaar against reigning champion Chris Edwards. Bayaar extended his winning run with a split decision victory over Edwards who later said he was "gobsmacked" by the verdict.

Shinny's first fight of 2010 pitched him against Najah Ali at the Indoor Sports Center in Leigh, the fight was only a six rounder and not a title fight although Bayaar only scored a narrow points victory. The first defence of his title was set for Dagenham on 14 May 2010 against the unbeaten English champion Ashley Sexton. The fight resulted in a draw with Bayaar suffering a nasty cut in the later rounds. On 15 December 2010 Bayaar lost the title to Paul Edwards after an accidental clash of heads in the first round of their fight in Belfast resulted in a deep cut opening in the center of Bayaar's head and the fight being called off. Bayaar next fought on 10 December 2011 and went straight back into British championship action facing former opponent Chris Edwards who had defeated Paul Edwards to reclaim the title earlier in the year. The fight went the distance and resulted in another loss for Bayaar as Edwards successfully defended the title.
