Almost zero
Crawford definitely wont take that fight
Besides Spence his resume is weak. He re-signed with top rank when all the top welters were with pbc
Then waited for Spence to outgrow the division
If it has no chance of happening, why do they keep asking Crawford about Ennis? Ennis can always come up with things people want to hear. What is he suppose to say? Say no?
I can't see it happening. Boots isn't big enough name outside of the boxing fans. Casuals don't have a clue who he is and Crawford wouldn't risk letting a potential strong up and comer knock him off after it's taking so long to earn this respect/rank that he's thought out for so long. I'd expect his next fight to be a mega fight AFTER the Spence rematch and I'm not sure who else besides Canelo would offer the kind of paycheck he'll be looking for. The Charlo fight is pretty much dead in the water now. I can't see anyone who would want that.
Can someone tell me how this fight is going to happen now that Showtime exited boxing? Show me which ent1t1ies are going to be interested in making this fight. What should Crawford do?
Your guess is as good or worse than any one else's. Nobody knows.
Email Ennis had 2 chances. He and his team declined to make it happen. Salty Spence fans cant keep Buds name out out their mouths. Everyine know Spence triggered the rematch and everyone knows Bud wants to fight Charlo AND thats a 100% better fight. Period. You old SickDuckin Spence fans turned Email ennis fans need to get over it.
It's a mere fantasy fight, even more so now that Showtime has closed their boxing department. Fans are like little kids and want candies. They don't care where the candies would come from.

Crawford only has 1 maybe 2 years left before Father Time comes knocking. And nowadays, top level boxers fight once or twice a year and sometimes not at all e.g. Bivol, Thurman, GRJ.
With Boots being emailed the IBF belt and Crawford now wanting to fight at 154, I highly doubt this fight ever happens.
Boxing is. A business. No one know who boots is. Boots promoter would never put him in against bud now. It's tall talk. The fight needs hype and a buildup and only way it happens is if bud moves up and boots unifies 147 then fights bud.
The only way this fight happens is if who ever is backing Ennis puts up the money for it. I not sure if it’s Haymon or someone else but whoever it is is going to have to cover the cost of the fight.
Bud is looking to cash out and retire, its not in his best interest to take the fight against a prospect for the most part so no chance this happens.
But this is what fans want. Look at the threads about it. They don't have to be stickied, posters can't get enough of it.
Fight has to happen. This site just can't stop making news articles about it. Fans love it and threads about Bud/Boots are getting massive amounts of responses.
Not a chance. Spence had to make the fight with Bud happen. So, no chance Bud goes out of his way for anything, specially not with a "lose-lose" as he called it.
Crawford doesn't want to fight Boots. He's become what he hates. He spent his whole career whining about not getting opportunities and now he's the one refusing to give a guy a chance.
