    Basically, Bozy says they'll just continue to wait around.

He should at least make it clear he's only fighting once or twice a year, so that people don't have to hype him so much.
      Well, this must be the time for Jaron "Boots" Ennis to correct the ducking moves he did when he became #1 WBO mandatory to Crawford. I was tracking the rankings and all of a sudden Jaron Boots vacated his spot just to make sure WBO won't order Crawford/Ennis. At least Vergil Ortiz was open in avoiding Bud when he relinquished his #1 spot, which elevated Boots to #1. Jaron instead was talking how he would accept any offer from Crawford in a heartbeat. Then turns it down when it is offered. He should be correcting it now that Crawford is free.

        I feel your frustration.

        This thread is not much to get some results, but I'm going to bump it up on a regular basis till we see some progress.

          I don't believe many fighters want to fight him. Which is a problem. I'd love to see him more active.

            Problem with that is we don't know who Ennis camp approached for his fights. I don't believe they approached guys like Kavaliauskas, Avanesyan, Butaev, etc. They can't lie because it can easily be verified.

            The one they approached is Stanionis years ago, according to Stan himself. It was around Eimantas' 10th fight. Stan said yes, according to him, then Ennis rep never came back. There hasn't been any offer made to Stanionis since. And Stan is on youtube saying he'll never turn down any offer.

            If you can name fighters that avoided him, who are they? Thurman is called out by everybody. He ducks, which is not unusual. Who else?

              Eimantas Stanionis Has No Problem With Facing Jaron Ennis Next, Loathes Tune-Ups
              There’s simply no other way to put it. Things have flat-out been a disaster for Eimantas Stanionis as of late. April 16th, 2022, was essentially his proudest moment as a pro. On the night, the Lithuanian born contender achieved a lifelong dream of becoming a world champion, albeit a secondary one.


              Mario Barrios Feels Ready To Fight Jaron Ennis or Any of The Elite at 147
              Mario Barrios might be a lot of things but one thing that he’s not, is afraid to get into a fistfight. He wasn’t scared to lose his undefeated record to Gervonta Davis. He didn't show any trepidation when he was asked to move up to a weight class he never competed in to take on Keith Thurman. He also wasn't unnerved when the name Yordenis Ugas slid across his desk.

                We don't know very much at all about negotiations and offers.. All we know is he isn't active, and he has a belt. Fighters generally want to win those. Yet he's struggling to find opponents.

                    Struggling? He managed to find 32 opponents mostly bums, yet they don't know how to secure other fights? That's hard to believe. That's why some media investigator needs to ask them who they approached within the last 2 years and we'll find out if they're lying or not.

                      Exactly. Jaron loves talking, not much walking.
