Thats when we'll know if Boots is the goods, fr fr.
    Ever tried pushing a piece of string? It doesn't go anywhere. They'd be mad to take an Ennis fight for less than 7-8 million because essentially that's the end of their careers.

      That’s true. Anthony Yarde comes to mind. Although two different fighters, the hype was there but he didn’t really live up to it. We definitely can’t anoint Ennis as THE guy until he starts facing and beating elite level fighters. He certainly passes the eye test but who doesn't when fighting guys a level below you?
      plenty don't pass my eye test at least - Benn is beating up on fighters below his level but my eyes tell me that Ennis is far more skilled than Benn. Ennis is ready to fight Spence now - might not win the fight but he can share the ring comfortably - Benn, he's gone in a few rounds as his defence and footwork is lacking

          Because Boots is not PBC. They would not dare let one of their big names get in their with a non PBC fighter that could beat them unless they get multiple fights from that fighter. Boots is promoted by Dunkin and has a media deal with showtime.

              I think you're right, however I feel ennis beats Spence. Errol is fundamentally sound just think ennis's speed and reflexes would be too much for him, reminds me a bit like RJJ back in the day. Now Ennis vs Bud would be a mouth watering match up..

                agree entirely - i'd take boots over bud too - similar reflexes but Boots has more reach and is younger - I think he'd be more active than Bud

                  I'm with Errol Spence on this one - I can't put anything into that fight given how Clayton reacted or acted however you'd like to put it.

                    Because 1 boots isn’t a pbc fighter and 2 they are scared to death of fighting boots. So we are discrediting lipinets are we? So it’s not a big deal what he did to lipinets and Clayton since all are at the contender level?

                      Spence vs boots? that's a wild notion given Spence won't even go near bud lol the big b**** of 47 it'll happen in 5 yrs after both take Ls when he's past prime.
