You can't even make this stuff up. Ring reports that Karen Chukadzian's promoter P2M won the purse bid for the ordered IBF title bout, beating out Hearn by around 500K. Ennis is still on the hook to face a mandatory after Crowley had to withdraw, and apparently may have to vacate the title without ever defending against a mandatory. So not only was Cheap Eddie unable to deliver a unification fight because they were about 500K off for Norman, they can't even keep the title for Ennis, who apparently is content to go back to being a contender and keep pretending to chase after Bud at 154. You think Ennis is happy about signing with Matchroom right about now, when they won't even outbid Karen Chukadzian's promoter?

If Boots is serious about wanting Crawford, going up to 154 and KOing the hell out of Madrimov (who Crawford got a close decision win) even without a belt will be a decent start IMO.
I don't think Boots is interested in it tho.Comment

Good stuff...Comment

The promoter trying to make the unifications is the one being blamed when they don't happen, go figure. Meanwhile, PBC and TR sit in silence. You have Barrios and Stanionis on the same side, yet Barrios is supposedly waiting for an ancient Pacquiao....and who knows what the hell Stani will do next. TR is gonna have Norman milk his title while he waits for Teofimo to move up.
