Comments Thread For: Jaron 'Boots' Ennis Signs Multifight Promotional Deal With Matchroom

[Bronx23]

Don’t be surprised to see a few more Showtime/PBC guys come over. PBC just doesn’t have the dates to keep these guys active. And this Amazon Prime deal doesn’t feel like it’s sure thing in the long term.

so far Matias & Boots. Two really big signings. Let’s see who else is next

What elite welterweights does Matchroom have? I'll wait.

I don't think the current crop of WWs have done enough to be classified as "elite". Just a bunch of contenders with some being a bit more proven than others, or guys who excel at the "eye test". Barrios probably has the best victory of the current crop vs. Ugas, but Ugas was 17 months inactive. Ugas' claim to fame is beating a 40 year old Pac coming off 25 months inactivity. That fight doesn't really tell us how Barrios would look against the others.

How can we know if Crowley is on par with Ennis (or vice versa) if he doesn't step in the ring with him? It's a match-up that shouldn't be so difficult to make.

That’s exactly my point
According to Bozy and son , no one is on par with them hence no fights
But they are quick to trash Bud for the same reason
Boots should be taking any fight coming his way

Someone needs to come out and explain why Crowley/Ennis hasn't been made yet. Usually, money is the root of the problem. But I think there's more to it. MR needs to find a way to get Crowley in the ring for Ennis. That would make a great co-main to Matias/Paro.

Per the lawsuit, because Ennis' previous promoter failed utterly to negotiate on his behalf for that fight...

Looking forward to Boots staying active

It doesn't explain why the fight wasn't allowed to go to purse bid. Ennis said he's been corresponding with MR for about two months, so it's possible that MR would've put in a bid for the Crowley fight as a gesture of good faith. Well, I guess it's MR turn to try and negotiate.

That might help. Dan Rafael, but... Might be a done deal? That was end of March.

It seems like Crowley has been purposely keeping his options open. He has two options now: Ennis (IBF) or Cissokho (WBC). We don't know how much Crowley is making vs. Ennis, but his purse will be $214k to face Cissokho. Who does he choose?

Crowley seems to have a fight already against Cissokho
