    Don't doubt it but it doesn't capture my imagination. I guess because I have seen so little of him.

      I wish he could but he can't. It's pointless because there is no money left for him to make at 147. Neither Crawford or Spence would be returning back to the welterweight division.

      So right now; All the major players are at the 154 pound limit. They are the ones who are holding all the cards and belts. Not the 147 pound weight division.

        Or are you going to shift goal post NOW and say that the ship has now sailed for him?

        Also using that very logic, if Teofimo or Brandon Rios are WILLING TO FIGHT CRAWFORD, that alone is “bringing something to the table”?
        Im saying that Ennis always seems to bark once someone is ALREADY SIGNED FOR ANOTHER FIGHT. Bud has been stuck for months waiting to get free of the Spence thing, and not a peep out f Ennis. Then suddenly once Bud signs to fight Madrimov, here comes Ennis yap yap yip yap yip yap yap. Like clockwork.

        But heres a question: Why hasnt Ennis fought anyone in the top 5 in the past 5 years?

          Eddie Hearn better deliver 3 fights before the end of Ennis' contract. Otherwise, he'll get sued.

            That’s a good point.

            I think he should atleast win a legit title at 147 first. Because I don’t count his title at the moment.

              I’m guessing you haven’t seen any of the videos where Boots been calling out Bud for the last two years. They even FaceTimed on a radio show.

              Nobody wants to fight Boots. It’s that simple. The last guy who was undefeated and was the one supposed to test Boots was Villa. In case you missed that fight, he got destroyed.

                  Crawfish and his stans accused Spence of ducking and PBC of boxing him out, and now he's signed to PBC and doing the same thing to Boots. Crawfish is a hypocrite.
                  Bud never cried. He simply cornered the rat. Crawford is not signed to PBC. He's a free agent. If he was signed to PBC, he wouldn't be fighting on Eddie's card August 3rd.

                    Ennis is a Jeff Lacy type of fighter but who will step up and end the hype.

                      Just Eddie throwing them a bone is all. They're done. Long live the king.
