    The same can be said for Ennis: supposedly Barrios turned him down recently, and Crowley has turned him down before. But if Boxing is their career, they have to find a way. I'm starting to believe that some of these fighters have saboteurs in their inner circle. They're being managed/promoted/advised by people that don't have their best interests in mind, and are keeping their careers from progressing. Maybe not outright sabotage, instead it's ******ity and ignorance.

      Both are overrated and have fought no one. They should fight to find out which is a contender.

        No kidding. They both have awful management. It's just, in Ennis' case, it looks like his own dad screwing his career over.

He said it would take him “one round” to dispatch Edgar. That may be a little bravado, although Morrell seemed quite confident, but I can see him taking Berlanga out by the fifth round.
          One round is exaggerating but two would be right
          Berlanga has nothing and im also not so impressed by his power
          Let’s see him showcase that power when there is decent return fire

                Mbilli as of late has stated that he’ll take the Morrell fight

I don’t expect the top guys to fight nearly as much as young Tyson did, but c’mon. I think four times a year is good for a guy like Morrell, whose fights don’t tend to last very long. And you’re right, if you go two rounds in your last engagement, you really ought to be getting in there again fairly quickly.
                    It seems that getting someone in the ring with a good prospect nowadays is very hard. Specially if they don't see a ch1nk in their armor.
