    And Boots getting smacked around by light hitting Karen. Boots never faced anybody but here you are telling us how great he might be. What he might do. Who he might beat. No, that doesn't make him a mighty king. He's an email king with nothing to show.

      Wow that was too easy. You just proved my point genius. You said "Boots would get smacked around by big Russians" and I said "like Virgil got smacked around by a big Russian" and I said you wouldn't e avle to respond to that. And you responded "Boots karen Boots karen". So please try again and respond to Virgil getting smacked around by the big Russian

        I can't help but think the entire Eddie/Ennis team just made the shyt list with the Man from the Middle East. Obviously Eddie and Bozy did a lot of talking and as it turned out, it was just that, talk.

        The irony is that Eddie may be forced to go back to 147 for a no name like Brain Norman and eat the cost just to salvage his reputation.

          And furthermore, black fighters don't get smacked around by big Russians we smack them around. Ward vs Kovalev, James Toney vs Vasily Jirov, Haney vs Hoemachenko..... just to name a few

            And you proved my point. Who else has Boots fought besides Karen. Name the bum so we can all get a laugh.

You see when Boots was with Showtime and Espinosa he wasn't getting the top tier fights but he fought often and was being progressed nicely. Espinosa had a strategic plan for him after Showtime got out the biz. He would take Boots to PBC where he would be one of a handful of PBC stars that would be showcased on Amazon. Boots, Tank, Spence, Canelo, Jermell, David (Morrell and Benny) and a few others. Boots would have had access to PBCs entire roster of 147 and 54. All he had to do was fight a d the business would've taken care of itself. But Boots jumped the gun for the quick and easy Matchroom cash. Now just after 2 fights Boots realizes Hearn has no plan no strategy and no future for him. He knows if he stays with MR every fight will be this chaotic clusterfuqk of Hearn desperately trying to string some BS together. And to add insult to injury, the only American promoter he has access to to try and make fights is Oscar. And after last weeks CLLLLAAPPP BBAACCKK TTHUURRDDAY how realistic do you think that is.
              No offense but the PBC has no money, they put on five $80 PPV's that didn't sell jack shyt or even 1/2 of what they claimed.

                You missed the fight, Ortiz won but it was close. I thought it was a draw but you'll need to see the fight, I can send you a link if it helps.

                  Boots stock has plummeted to rock bottom in the last month after being slapped around by Karen and now ducking Ortiz. He has gone from "generational talent" to chicken. In terms of big Russians you might be right. The way Karen was landing that left hook cleanly and rocking Boots was scary. Imagine if Bakhram Mutrazaliev was landing his money punch left hook the way he was doing it to Tim Tszyu. How many shots would Boots be able to take before going down like Tim?

                    I never understood why Boots isn't with PBC. Either he doesn't like them, or they don't like him.

                      No balls boots just cemented his Philly legacy as a Philly cheesesteak made with 100% duck meat. Put it on the menu, call it the soggy duck sandwich served in worn out boots topped with imitation cheese!
