    Bud is too old now. He is past his prime. Where as Boots have yet to enter into his.

      He is not a problem, he is the new welterweight star.

        When you're trying to get an iron chinned, face first brawler out of there to make a statement, you're going to miss a few times and catch a few punches yourself in the process.

        Brutally impressive performance from Boots. Zero holes in his game detected.

          Boots leaves a few openings don't worry about that, I really like the way he rolls of punches takes all the power of them, I think Villa is about on the level of Avanesyan. I thought boots would stop him earlier to be honest but he was beating him up all the way Villa will feel it tomorrow.

            Am I missing something here?

            He looks to be a talented fighter but as far as I can tell he hasn’t even beaten a ranked opponent yet?

              Calm down. He didn't beat anyone in top 10. Spence and Crawbum would end Villa earlier.

                  I thought Ennis timing was a little off and Villa is a tough guy no doubt but slow feet, I don't think that was enough to beat Spence or TC, Boots need a couple of more fights with top comp he is still improving and these fights do him good, it was a good showing but some flaws are there and Villa is not the fastest, Boots is working into that big fight zone.
                  This is the correct answer.

                  Ennis showed improvement, significant improvement. But he's still making the occasional silly mistakes. Which he got away with when it's an opponent who (by Boots' words) is "tailor made" for him. We can't overlook the fact that he almost got taken the distance again when half of NSB said he'd take Villa out inside of 6.

                  He doesn't have the same success against Spence or Crawford, and he doesn't land nearly as efficiently against Keef. I don't think Stankonia gets past him easily, but what we do know that someone who can move and strike will test Boots again, and that's who he should fight next, is a highly skilled boxer to see if he's improved in that area. Crowley might be interesting.

                    You wouldn't have said that if he was a WHITE guy

                      White fighters who I like: Canelo, Fury, Inoue, Loma, Teo

                      White fighters who I don't like: Usyk, Garcia, Benavidez, BJS, Taylor, Parker, GGG, Bivol etc..

                      Black fighters who I like: Shakur, Spence, Joyce (half-Nigerian), Chisora

                      Black fighters who I don't like: Joshua, Crawford, Tank, Haney, Charlos, Whyte, Andrade etc..

                      So, tell me. Am I racist or you talking out of your a$$?
