If Karen had power .................................................. ....

I believe boots would fight differently if he fights someone with more power.

[Damn Wicked]

I'll be tuning in to see Karen fight in his next bout.

Well there you have it boots wants to move up to 154

Competitive & fun. I think Karen is a very good fighter, really good footwork in particular and tough as old boots. I'd like to see him take Benn to school.

Boots appears to have a granite chin but he has some horrible defensive tendencies. As much as he rolls and takes the heat off shots he has a lot of bad habits standing too tall in the pocket, pulling out too high and generally not protecting the right side of his face. I am not high on him at all and think Boots has infinite times more talent but I feel even a Ryan Garcia would pose a real risk to Boots unless he tightens up.

[real raw]

Boots either can't or won't change his fight plan. He smothers his own punches trying to walk Karen down. He gets hit waaaaay to easily and too often. No double /triple jabs. No feints. Just walking straight forward.

Boots saying he wants to go up to 154? GTFOH. He won't even beat head first Tim.

Is Ennis OK? He isn't having a meltdown like AJ or Lopez but he seems dejected.

[Malvado]

His voice is cracking and his eyes seems to be tearing.

[Damn Wicked]

Boots is a good guy but tonight he was challenged closely. He looks like he has chipmunk cheeks tonight after the fight, probably because he was getting smacked on the jaw and head all night. Fun fighter but he looked a bit slower than Karen and was neglecting his defense. I think his size was his saving grace against Karen.

Yeah I can see it too like he's embarrassed. He was stuttering and mixing up his words he couldn't wait to get away from the microphone.
