    Honestly, I have never seen a complete boxer. He can fight from all ranges, has tremendous power, is the best switch-hitter I've seen since Hagler, has good defense (potential to be elite), has great footwork, and counter-punching, and his timing is exceptional. Taking resumes out of the equation, I would favor him to beat Floyd Prime for Prime.
    He’s a hybrid of 3 fighters, Pretty Bou Floyd, Bud Crawford and Sugar Ray Leonard….all at the top of their primes. Dude is elite already. They are going to have to pay 5+ million to get a decent name…a Thurman, etc.. in there with Boots. I would really like to see him and Vergil **** it out, but we know that’ll marinate for years before GBP let’s Vergil take that L. Boots make the Samurai look like sushi. He’s taken apples and mofos are coming back applesauce!

        American sports YouTube channel, YSM Sports Media, caught up with the world-ranked welterweight at his gym in Philadelphia.

        Responding to comments from Benn that he could knockout the young American prodigy, Ennis said:
        “He doesn’t even believe that himself. He’s just sounding ******. There’s nobody who really knows who he is, but we can make that happen, anywhere, anytime, these guys keep talking too much.”

        “He isn’t really about no action. We’ll see if he’s really about that action…You’re going to get hurt messing around with me!”


        This guy wouldn't even Avenesyan, Marku or his domestic rivals. He'd sooner jump up two weights than to fight any WW with a pulse.

        Boots is literally calling the entire division out. Spence, Crawford, all of them.
        Fair enough as this is the first reporting I’ve ever seen of Ennis calling for anyone other than Spence and Crawford.

              Fine Wine Thurman wants no part of low level restaurants. What's next for Mr. Boots?

                Any idea who ducked Jaron Ennis?

                This is not hard to find out who by contacting Ennis' management team
                and ask them the names of the guys who they approached for Ennis's fights.
                Then you can contact those names and find out who is lying.

                    - - That's it in a nutshell.

                    Kid Ortiz has accomplished so much more in his short time and targeting Craw.

                    Bootsie need a major promoter/name makeover. Boots who???

                      His best win is a blown up Lipinets, who went back to his home division after the fight.
