Predicted beautifully: Chukhadzhian takes Boots the distance. That's basically a win for him.

Just like I broke down on this morning's podcast.

Boots showed that he can fight differently if needed. Good.

Now NSB: do you still feel that Boots is this unstoppable beast that dominates every welter?

Yes he cleans them all out beats spence too. Only exception is crawford. He loses to bud.

I only pick Spence and Bud over him right now. I’m kind of surprised Aunt Karen was able to stick around like that doe.

I knew he had a very good chance when I saw him dissect Ali Funeka. He's awkward as hell but manages to land, and Boots always gets hit flush.

What I didn't expect was the footwork. He purposely forced Boots back to the middle of the ring, which was brilliant, and his defense was quite good.

There's simply no way Boots deals with Spence's work rate in the later rounds. Boots got slower and less accurate by round 7. Spence breaks him down like he did Ugas.
