    Why not Mean Machine himself who some feel is decent? I have no doubt that Boots blows him out of the water in 2 unlike Ortiz and Bud.

      Thurman wanted a 10 million guarantee for Crawford. Unless Haymon forced him to fight Ennis it ain't happening.

        Stanionis he would def be a good test plus he doesn't have a lot of people trying to protect and build him up. Also Thurman he’s past it but it’s a good option to see if the winner is deserving of title shot. There’s also Ben but it’s unlikely they let them fight each other so early with out more hype behind the fight.

          I prefer a risk. Like what Teo took fighting Loma. If your great, don’t be shy. I think Spence would do it after Crawford. He looked a little annoyed by him. I don’t think Boots people would go for it though.

            Stanionis but I see it ending very badly for Stanionis. I would say Thurman but he wouldnt sign even if he never gets to fight again if he doesn't.

              I like that, good humour.

              Regardless if that fight determines his standing in the sport is irrelevant. It's the fight that is likely to happen. You still have not given ONE good reason why Stanionis would risk his standing to fight Boots? What does he gain there when he's already the world WBA champion and he either fights for the vacant super title or better yet, he may just get elevated to super champion?
              I'm glad I don't have to give you any. I don't even know where you got this idea from
              where I said I want Stanionis for Ennis' next fight. But it's okay, you might have missed this
              thread where I said Stanionis just barely eked out a SD win vs Butaev.

              He's a PBC fighter, so don't even mention non-PBC fighters. Anyone you can think of within the PBC walls? Thurman won't fight him. Swift Garcia won't fight him. Spence will not be available for at least 8 months. So who else is there for him? Some mentioned Stanionis, who is another Lipinets-level. The guy could barely get

                I'm not sure what the point of you linking that thread was? You have mentioned Stanionis in the past, have you not? If you have not, others have. And Stanionis had a very good performance against Butaev. That was a good win.

                When I mentioned Crowley, you start getting upset when I am just listing the most likely opponent for Ennis. He's just not going to get the big plates without being aligned with one of the top promoters. Just not going to happen so his best bet is becoming mandatory and getting a title shot that way.

                Ennis keeps asking for the Thurman fight but we damn well know that is not going to happen. It would be great if it did but just not happening.

                He's in a tricky spot until he gets a title. And even if he gets a title, no guarantee he gets the big fights so he probably will be forced to move up to 154 soon.

                  You lost me doe, utterly lost... You want me to provide "reason why Stanionis would risk his standing to fight Boots?"
                  which I didn't want in the first place. What do you expect from me now?

                    Why are you using the word "doe" here?

                    So have you yes or no in the past brought up the potential match up of Ennis vs Stanionis?

                      I did, but did that thread indicate anything I was in favor of that fight?
