1. I have always given Eddie his due. He has produced some of the most shocking upsets in modern times. He meddles to make his guy look so unbeatable until his guy goes to sleep. This Arab guy seems a little sharper than Eddy's usual dupes, maybe he can have a beneficial effect.

They should have fought already. Boxing politics is as bad as US politics--very inefficient.

If Turki Alilshikh offers that huge money to Crawford to fight Ennis in Saudi, he'd probably accept it.

It's a fight, for the future, that you'd think would be electric in Vegas or at the Garden in New York, better atmosphere. But Saudi have the money and it seems it's easier to make a big fight happen there now.

At least Ryan and Devin put on a real entertaining event, and it wasn't in Saudi.

I say Ennis just stick to his own path, try and unify/clean up at 147. Worry about 154 when that's done.

I’d be fine with that, but if he’s going to persist with calling Crawford out, at least bring something to the table.

I’m a big fan of the Crowley fight.

So you are saying that Boots is the same as Adames?

He’s less proven than Adames tbh.

I will believe it when I see it. Crawford has already stated he will not fight Ennis.

Was the same thing with Crawford Pacquaio, Pacquaio wouldn't fight a relatively unknown Crawford the same way I can't see Crawford doing the same at this later stage of his career.

Same here, looking forward to that one. It's a great time to be a fight fan after a quite miserable last 8-10 years for the most part.

Fighting Ennis for a belt you were unfairly stripped of at a weight you're struggling to make makes little sense. Especially the case when he'd likely be stripped again when he beats Ennis. Let the kid fight a few live bodies at 54 and get at him there if the money's right and Ennis has something to offer.

When you say "the kid", that could be like calling a bald man curly. Bud has to dip his toe at 154 too. Not 157. That trick will get old quick.

That I do understand but he is fighting another unknown. But apparently the Saudis will be paying him well
