Who do you want for Jaron "Boots" Ennis next?

[GhostofDempsey]

Eliminator with Ortiz to see who gets a title shot with either Crawford or Spence.

He turned pro 7 years ago this April and still haven't done **** his entire career. 7 goddamn years

End thread here. Very accurate. I don't know why there's still some people who are defending his abysmal record. It's indefensible.

They can't even answer the topic's question. Will he continue to rely on Spence's moves even if it takes another year? Or take one or two more fights this year?

[Bullrider]

HAHAHAHAHA...this is a joke, right. Kavaliauskas is 2-2-1 in his last 5 fights. Couldn't take out Mykal Fox...and you think he can deal with Boots' power? LOL

Brah there's no Kavaliauskas level in Jaron Boots entire record. Most of them are Rod Salka level. Up to to you keep on fooling yourself.

None of those guys are nothing close to having A-side behavior. You can be sure they're dying to get back in the ring. And if you've been hearing Redkach sad predicament, his fight being canceled, blaming his promoter, cursing this sport, etc. So no, there's no sense turning down fights at this level. None.

Anyone of those in the list mentioned will say yes in a heartbeat. Butaev would be an okay stay-busy fight for Ennis. It doesn't have to be Kavaliauskas or anyone of that rep.

It's up to Ennis and his team now. I don't think fans will give him another pass if he does the same thing he did last year, sit around wait for nothing.

False. Ortiz's opponent is Stanionis...and the fight is postponed while Stanionis recovers. If Ortiz fights someone other than STanionis, he loses his position. Would make zero sense for him to do so.

Okay, whatever. Stanionis, same thing. Man had the appendix burst and is out of the fight.

How would he lose his position taking on another #1 contender? Now that makes zero sense.

[F l i c k e r]

Wrong again.

The winner of Ortiz vs Stanionis will be Spence's WBA mandatory. The WBA has said that after Spence-Thurman, Spence can either fight Crawford to unify, or he must fight the winner of Ortiz-Stanionis.

The WBA is first in line. The IBF is not. There is no timetable on Spence fighting his IBF mandatory. There is no way IBF is stripping Spence anytime soon because they are behind the WBC and WBA in terms of the mandatories.

You aren't refuting anything, you're just filling in small spaces.

Was Thurman-Spence mandated by the organization or not?

Are the statements of Bozy Ennis false or not? Because he's who I am sourcing this from.

You must not really follow - or understand - boxing.

Boots wants a title shot. One way to do that is to get yourself into the mandatory position, and ultimately they'll have to fight you.

Boots' fight against Karen Chukhadzhian was for the mandatory. He had to fight Chukhadzhian in order to get the mandatory. No one scoured the globe to find him. He was the highest ranked available contender, so if he wanted the mandatory position - which anyone would, in his shoes - then he HAD to fight Chukhadzhian.

If you don't like the choice of opponents, blame the sanctioning organization, not Boots. Boots doesn't control the rankings. He's just trying to get his title shot, and he has no choice but to play the cards he has been dealt. DOn't hate the player, hate the game.

Everyone wants title shots. But you don't waste one whole year waiting for it to happen. You stay busy fighting meaningful fights while waiting.
