    You mean you're okay with Ennis waiting around some more for Haney? Boots is approaching one year without fighting. How long would he wait for Haney after his fight with Garcia? Three months, six months, one year?

    Fans need to stop encouraging this waiting around behavior. It's probably why Crawford is not feeling any urgency to fight. He'll wait for Canelo doe.

      That isn't going to happen now, he is going to have to go belt collecting and contender beating. These guys get so entitled.

        Probably the dumbest take I've seen in here in 20 years. You just compared an athletic boxer/puncher to an unathletic robot that couldn't box to save his life.

          Man it's disgusting. How did this sport become this horrible? Waiting for someone who has a fight scheduled when you have been waiting around for a year is beyond comprehension. Why not fight someone who is readily available? It could be Rod Salka or any bum, but just fight man fight. Stop wasting your prime.

            Ennis can win one or two but he is at his ceiling, that's why they don't want fights. A top boxer ruins him like Lacy.

                Put him in with someone the level off Virgil and the hype train stops, although Virgil is 154 now.

                  Fine but your comparison between Boots and Lacy is way off
