Comments Thread For: Jaron Ennis and Vergil Ortiz react to fight falling through

Excellent post! I'm a fan of Boots and was of the opinion that he would edge out a hard fought scrap, but I saw the post fight conference and heard the questions and answers. No way Boots wasn't aware that Eddie would try and negotiate a fight with Virgil.

You're spot on about the blatant racism in here too, it's pathetic and shameful!

No way Boots wasn't aware that Eddie would try and negotiate a fight with Virgil.

This is where the truth lies
No fughin way did he not know that negotiations were being worked out
To lazy to go look for the article where his dad says something about negotiating on its way and that his son is moving up for this memorable fight lol

Yeah, it's disappointing to hear Boots making excuses. One can be a fan of Boots' skills,(as I am) but still see that as of right now, it is he who appears to be the one dodging the fight with Virgil. What the reason or reasons might be, who knows?

Just read on another site that Slow Eddie is claiming , now , that all this was because the fight might happen at 147 which to say the least is total lies and trickery
Never would Ortiz go back down whether for medical reasons or the fact he can’t make that weight
So to be using this excuse just seems to bury Boots even further down

The only thing that happened was Karen. Boots was shook by the leather in his face. Instead of winning easier Boots took a step back.

That 147 excuse is flat out insulting, to say the least... I was really looking forward to watching Boots take on Virgil this coming February. Oh well, guess he'll stick around 147 for a couple of years and unify....

I heard Barrios is throwing a big party
An even bigger one once he gets that bag from Ennis

Btw, the blatant racism and pathetic child-like insulting in this forum speaks volumes about the fans too. Maybe we're getting what we deserve

Ain't that the truth. Some ignorant racist MF's on here who need to grow tf up.

Lets go Boots! Good job. I know Espinoza is still in your ear telling you to do one last Euro fight with Matchroom so when your deal is up with them you're going back with Espinoza and signing with Amazon Prime. Your desire to become undisputed at WW is still there. Eddie Hearn signed you with the promise that he would make you undisputed at WW. He lied. Now he's waffling trying to get you to fuqk your career up to save his company. Fuqk him and Fuqk Virgil to. Boots vs Virgil was supposed to be a classic at 147 that we've been dying to see for the last several years. Boots held up his end of the bargain by winning a title. It's not his fault that Virgil is undisciplined and couldn't put down the enchiladas and maintain his weight. So stay the course Boots slow and steady. Don't rush for anyone. The fight with Virgil will be much bigger after you collect all the straps at 147 and move up. Hopefully Virgil's fat azz will still be there and you can fuqk him up worse than that Ukranian did.

Man , you know damned good and well that it wasn't any enchiladas that gave Ortiz rhabdomyolysis. The guy almost died trying to stay at 147. Boots is huge for the weight too. They can both comfortably fight at 154. Face it , Boots punked out. You might as well hop off the Boots train now , why stay on and continue to defend the indefensible ? This isn't about either of your two favorite topics, racism or PBC , it's about Boots constantly whining about how he can't get a big fight then turning the big fights down when they're presented to him. It's like you just refuse to see what you have seen. It's disappointing to all of us , Boots fan or not but we can't pretend that what's happened didn't happen , except for you.

Damn.. I hate to see Boots turning into Andrade.

“We dont know everything that goes on behind the scenes, Boots might have a bigger fight lined up. Let’s see what happens.”

If he had something bigger lined up , Hearn would know about it , and so would we. Most often the simplest explanation is the best one. IMO , Boots does not want to fight Vergil Ortiz . I like to use the principles of Occams Razor .
