Comments Thread For: Radzhab Butaev Stops Jamal James in Ninth, Captures WBA 'Regular' Title

[Liondw]

I thought the WBA stopped this regular and super title ******ity.

[factsarenice]

I was hoping Dulorme could test Ennis a bit and give him things to think about but his jab was just super sharp. He needs to still be a bit careful when he hurts his opponent but this guy is as explosive as it gets.

Why the hell could he not get in on the WBA tournament??

I hate to say I told you so....but I did say that Dulorme had nothing, he was there to be knocked out.

14 fights later, and still no title shot? Who has Butaev beaten? Who has Stanionis beaten? 28-0 w/ 26 KOs, and my guy is still not in a mandatory position? Kudratillo Abdukakhorov is IBF #1, with 18 fights! Who did he beat? Luis Collazo? C'mon son!

Ennis made a total 2.5 mill in his last 6 fights combined. Do the math on that and you'll see why nobody has him on there radar.

Everyone’s path is different . Ennis is only 24 and fighting guys with losing records for half of his career in learning fights. Canelo had about 35 fights before he got a title shot, because he was also a young fighter learning his craft

Abdukakhorov was fighting guys with decent records after about 6 or 7 fights, Ennis was fighting guys with more losses than wins after 14 fights. It is what it is.

Ennis will get his shot. They just had different paths and moved differently early in their career. Plus, governing body rankings don’t often make a lot of sense, hence why awful fighters get title shots. IBF is the worst for it.

Are you new to boxing?

What guys are you talking about? I know these governing bodies are wack, but there's no way to justify Abdukakhorov, Stanionis, and Butaev, being that much farther ahead than Boots!

What was wrong with his tactics?

James kept turning his back mid punch and dipping below the waist. Butaev did nothing wrong.

Lol
Ref in the ring saw it different from you sitting at home watching it on your Telly

Like I've been saying for ages, bad management of Ennis. Ennis needs to fire someone.

D & D have to step up their game! Boor, and his BFF Brandun Lee, should be in eliminators and title fights...ASAP!

Yeah because boxing officials always do a great job.

It’s one of the worst sports in existence when it comes to officiating

[Bronx2245]

All valid points. The issue is that Ennis is not with a big name promoter and the TRs GBs and PBC fighters all get preference over the fighters of small time promoters. I hope that Ennis career doesn't pan out like Demetrius Andrade's - total crying shame - still avoided at 33 years of age.

But I think the difference between Ennis and Andrade is that Ennis is way more dynamic and makes for better ratings. His time is coming real soon. I think Spence is gonna get stripped of at least one title for inactivity or put on the bench and Jared can fight for the vacant belt.

That's cool, but I would rather Boots TAKE the strap from Spence! Cameron Dunkin should be in Newark tomorrow, demanding an eliminator with IBF #1, Kudratillo Abdukakhorov!

How much has Stanionis made, or Butaev, or Abdukakhorov? WBA ordered James vs. Butaev! WBA ordered Stanionis vs. Dulorme, and Stanionis vs. Ugas! IBF ordered Abdukakhorov vs. Collazo! Nobody was demanding to see those guys! Those guys are not big draws! There not even as exciting than Boots! I hope IBF orders Abdukakhorov vs. Ennis on Monday!!!

Well Everyone entitled to their own opinions
But
Butaev nor his team didn't complain about the Refs repeated Warnings and most of fans in the comments recognize he did deserve the refs warnings
