Spence; Post car crash, inactive, coming off a career threatening surgery
Shawn Porter who had one foot out of the door and also hadn't fought in 15 months
Kavaliauskas - Coming off a terrible performance vs Ray Robinson & was smashed to bits by Ortiz shortly after
Prior to July 29th, you same clowns were calling Crawford-Spence a 50/50 fight. Post-July 29th, Spence was a "corpse in there". I just love REVISIONIST HISTORY.
But go ahead fangirl. You should be happy, ortiz, Crawford and spencerina are all moving up. You can run your mouth and say they all ducked email booty ennis and he can run trashass division. You can praise him for beating ..........Barrios and um.......yeah booty is the man now in a shlt division so keep your head up boy
Who has he beaten then that is better than Villa? McKinson? lol Kavalauskas? Samuel Vargas? 0 was ranked as high, 0 have wins even close to what Villa has. Not that even means anything but you made the claim.
I'm far from a fan girl. I'm a fan of the sport that wants to see the best fight the best! I don't particularly give a **** for elite fighters beating Barrios or Michael McKinson or even to sit splitting hairs over which B or C level fighter is better than the next.
Whether its Boots, Ortiz or Crawford its not good enough. They should be fighting each other, not fighting cans and us having to sit trying to compare who is the lesser can of the two, period.
And lets not act like 154 is some murderous row either.
I don't care for belts or to sit debating over dog**** resumes tbh
I just want to see the best challenge themselves and earn the right to call themselves the best not that it even means much today in most of these whack divisions.

I never said that and people are allowed to be wrong. Its only an opinion and nobody knows how far gone a fighter is until we see them in the ring. With all these belts, weight divisions, inactivity, cherry picking etc its easy to dupe fans or for fans to ignore the rather obvious. We also rarely get big fights these days so again very easy for fans to go overboard with excitement the odd time they are finally made.
Its not my fault if a small minority who favoured Spence turned a blind eye to how poor he is vs southpaws or ignored his injuries, inactivity and such.
And I don't blame them, it happens and I don't think anyone at all predicted he'd turn up in that state quite frankly, he looked awful so bad I worry for his health should he continue his career.
The thing is I think its the opposite for most part.
I think that people who picked Spence have egg on their faces are going too far with the praise for Crawford when anyone with a pair of eyes that seen that fight should be able to see that for whatever reasons or factors that he was not healthy and looked like he'd just got back from a 12hr bender.
He is dangerously shot but people want to sit and act like he just beat a peak Tito Trinidad or something, its ridiculous.
He shouldn't have passed a medical. It was just sad, was almost like watching Ali at the end of his career or something. Just sad as-is the praise.
Really it was just another ''super fight'' that got drawn out for way too damn long.
It cracks me up how some people are saying that he's ducking boots. He is honoring a contract that was made. That's the right thing to do. He's being a man of his word and that should be commended. And I think Boots is a helluva boxer, but them just giving him the belt doesn't make him a champion. I could see if he did something like Fury did and took some huge money exhibition fight or something but he's not. So when he whoops Spence again then what? Some people are always going to hate on greatness.
Sorry Bud, but it ain't all about you! Boots' fans are Boots fans! We know you're on a paper chase, and it's that's to be expected! We (Boots Fans) are just happy that if you're not gonna fight Boots, you're not also standing in the way! Move on, Peace & Blessings!
He was his IBF mandatory. Look I get that Crawford is contractually bond to fight Errol next. But for him to say he’s not fighting boots after Spence. And Bomac saying Bud “EARND” the right to pick and chose his opponents is what I’m having the problem with. He beat one too guy, one guy. And they think he’s “EARNED” the right to pick and choose? I don’t think so.
What I'm having a problem with is this idea that Crawford is ducking a guy who had two opportunities to fight him and declined to do so.
The whole world knew that there was going to a rematch clause between Crawford and Spence. We also knew that Spence was moving up, win or lose.
Ennis switching from the WBO to the IBF was clearly to put him in position to collect a vacant title, nothing more.
