    Have we heard a peep from Ennis since Crawford-Spence?

      He did 2 fights already for this year. He's expected to be back next year.
      3 fights a year is just too much for current boxers nowadays. It is what it is.

        Usually the organizations allow boxers to get away from defending the titles IF they make big time fights.

        Why? Because 3% of 18 million is more than 3% of 2 million. (3% being the fee that the org. charges to defend their belts; source: Rachel Donaire)

        So, technically he could if he won and then had to rematch Canelo.

        In that meantime, Crawford can fight Ennis, rematch Spence at 154. I suppose.

        Anything less than Ennis, Spence, or Tszyu at 154 is straight bs from Crawford.

          Nobody wants to fight him. Last I heard Thurman wanted 10 million to fight him. He should be trying to make a fight with Stanionis.

            He's waiting for a wounded gazelle in the Serengeti. He's not as good as he's pegged to be.

              There's essentially no money fight for him to wait on.
              That's been the objective in the first place, fight bums all your career
              to pad your record of 32 fights, then wait for money fights. It's a long-term investment.
              Don't know exactly when that money fight comes for him.

                Idk what he's waiting for. He's clearly ducking all of the belt holders at 147.

                  There’s one belt holder at 147 and he’s publicly saying he won’t fight Boots, wtf are you on?

                      The waiting game for Crawford and Spence held up the division, they literally just fought, if, as is expected they move up for the rematch Ennis and the rest of the welters will fight to collect the belts, if not the division will be held up longer, but it's unlikely Bud is gonna stick around and fight all his mandatories, he's going to go maximize his earning potential in his last few fights.
