    Bradley needs to stop the spin and copping out. He should just come out and say it that his boy Crawford is ducking Boots and so is Thurman and Spence.

    He's just too dangerous of an opponent for them with nothing to lose. He lacks both the fanbase and loyal following in order to generate enough revenue for that fight to happen.

    In other words, Ennis is just too high risk and low reward for him.

      I am praying and hoping Crawford makes this fight so after he washes Boots folks can come and say boots wasn’t ready. People love boots offense but still don’t pay attention to the huge holes in his game. He can get away with that against the caliber or fighters he’s been put in front of, mark my words. This fight is interesting for three rounds and then boots gets completely washed.

        Bradley talking nonsense. Crawford is great, but he ain't the best ever, the way people carry on.

        Ennis would've demolished Bradley back in the day.

          I'd like to see an eliminator between Ennis and Ortiz, winner gets a shot at Crawford.

              Boots will have to test himself at one point and Bud isn't getting any younger, I still pick Bud to beat him tho.

                I love Boots it's really hard to tell if he's ready to face Crawford I believe Boots would have also beat Spence + all the 147 lbers in PBC & Ortiz suffers from rare disease that weakens. him .the fight with Boots & Bud would be a great fight way more competitive than with Spence ! The fact that Boots got great power & speed -& can switch can make it harder for Bud also Boots got youth & Bud is 36 which Is the age where at a moments notice you can lose your coordination reflex etc I love both fighters I don't wanna see Bud lose what he just earned or Boots lose his O I wish there was another 147 lber besides Bud that could really challenge Boots but except for Ortiz who is unreliable there are NONE

                  Ennis has what? 30 PROFESSIONAL fights under his belt? He should have been fighting REAL threats 4 years ago.
                  I think when Canelo was 23 and fought TBE. He may of lost but he wasn’t afraid of loosing. He went right back to fighting and ended up being the cash cow. Why is it this new generation doesn’t have that kind of BALLS??

                    Ennis may not be "ready" to fight Crawford but he would fare better than Spence. Anyway, Spence and Crawford are seemingly headed for a rematch and will not fight Ennis anytime soon. So meanwhile, Ennis needs to clean out the cream of 147 to gain notoriety. After becoming a better draw, he'll be able to justify a showdown with either of them.
