    Well Bozy, no one really wants to fight Jaron. Too high risk.

    I may be completely wrong, but if I had to guess who will take over boxing as Mayweather did, I'd say 'Boots' looks like the guy.

    Of course, we'd have a better idea if he's the real deal if he had fights against the likes of Crawford, Spence and Charlo.

    He's the new boogeyman as Golovkin was for a while in the middleweight division, but with Gennady you knew he's incredibly powerful, but not the most skillful.

    That's the difference, Ennis switch hits and is so versatile, like Crawford, but perhaps much better.

      Judging by the comments, many of you don't realize that many of the top welterweights as well as other top fighters in other weight classes had to wait, not just Team Ennis. They all needed to wait for Spence vs Crawford because if they schedule a bout beforehand, Spence vs Crawford may fight on the same date, which would make their fight a flop. Think about it, nobody scheduled a fight on the Mexican holidays unless they were fighting Mayweather or was part of the undercard. Then Canelo took that date. Since Spence and Crawford don't have a special date, it's hard to predict what date they would be fighting on.
      Anyone could have fought if they wanted. Didn't stop 135 from fighting

        1. He began negotiations with BLK PRIME in June, CONFIRMING simultaneous negotiations, in bad faith.
        2. He walked away from a legacy fight for a tune-up with a fighter who lost to a man he already beat.
        3. He refuses to name hedge fund investors, investors that the EJ camp doesn't even know about
        4. He agreed to all terms - including Transparency, but didn't sign.

        One man, due to greed is creating a bottleneck in the division.
        Team Spence know who the hedge funds come from, it’s bn nothing but a smear campaign even while negotiations were ongoing and gave indication that negotiations were not progressing, they waited until target circumstances to pull it to mask the blatant swerve by low balling bud. 375k what I heard

          Crawford vs Ortiz

          Spence vs Boots

          Im happy with that. They are not fighting each other, then they face weak competition or no names.

            Where is Bud’s transparency?? Tell your boy to name the Hedge Fund.
            Bud could have gone after Boots if he really wanted to show he wasn’t ducking Spence.

              It could all be sorted if the sanctioning bodies would pull the belts off these clowns due to inactivity.

                If this was the 1940's, Boots Ennis would be on Murderer's Row with the likes of Holman Williams, Archie Moore, Aaron "tiger" Wade, Cocoa Kid, Bert Lytell, Jack Chase, Charley Burley, and Eddie Booker. Granted, most of them did their best work at middleweight, but Boots Is a special guy. He possesses skills, and qualities that come along only once in awhile, He's highly feared and avoided, and therefore, a modern day version of these dudes

                  Beating Spence would be historical for bud. Spence don’t want to be buds signature, history making win. Think about it, undisputed in 2 consecutive divisions.

                    Waiting for particular fighters will never make any sense, especially when such fighters don't have set scheduled fight yet. It just means you're willing to wait for six months minimum from the day the fight is announced to fighter getting ready to come back. It's ridiculous.

                      Spence + Charlo and it'd be undisputed in 3 divisions. 2 fights away, half of fans are OK with establishment jerking him around like this. Clowns talking about A-side/B-side, Crawford is the historical fighter in this equation
