    Barrios had to fight all these established guys to be recognized, while Ennis only had to fight Lipinets, Clayton, Dulorme and all these unknown guys in his resume.

      “Who the f is Boots that someone has to fight another fighter to get a shot at him”?
      The same is applicable with Avanesyan and Kavaliauskas when they fought Bud. How did they “earn” those fights?

        Barrios has had a fight against Tank, Thurman and now Ugas, the last man that beat Pac. He is more recognizable than those two.

        Both Tank and Thurman beat him so how did those losses raise his profile?
        Your argument that Bud was champ when he fought those two guys is neither here nor there because the question is who did they fight to get a shot at Bud?
        If unknown nondescript guys like Avanesyan and Kavaliauskas can get the opportunity to fight Bud while having fought no one, why does Boots have to “raise his profile more”?
        Boots is a bigger name than those two guys combined.

          Boots is the bigger name. He has to keep active and win meaningful fights so he won't be denied a shot. Look how long it has taken and like you mentioned look at the other two that got shots. The business of boxing gets in the way of fights happening.

          It will be a set back if Boots fights a lesser fighter. Fundora took a chance with Mendoza that was having a good run for himself to stay on top of the running. It didn't work out for him but is the type of thing the fighters have to do in boxing to stay high on the contention list and the views from the fans.

          Every top fighter will say there is no money in a Boots fight because the risk is big.

              It's not applicable at all. Crawford fought those guys. If he stays at 147 he should fight booty ennis next. I'd love to see Crawford beat tf out of that hypejob

                Ok Mr. Barrios, you looked decent your last fight, however, Mr. Boots is on another level and presently to my knowledge, you don't have any hardware to risk. Once you get a prize, then call him out, now go get your prize.

                  You're (hopefully) the only idiot who does not know the value of Boots. I guess you're just some unknown expert, hidden genius. What else are you good at? Guitar hero? Finding coins on the ground? Kraft diner special recipes?

                      The value of boots?? What the fvkc are you talking about? You act like he's been dominating welterweight for years, puts asses in seats and sells ppv.


                      He's nothing special! The guys best win is........um i guess a 140 lipnets, has no belt and runs his mouth about Spencer and Crawford when the idiot has a fight scheduled. Fvkcing ridiculous
