    Bwahaha I like your gumption! You’ll learn fundamentals >flash. As far as this being a showcase fight for bootsy..this will be far from that. If the guy who fought Karen shows up he will get flatlined. If your boy bootsy wants to win this fight he’s gonna have to show us something from him we haven’t seen yet because from what he’s shown..it won’t be enough

      Same here, for a very simple reason.
      There is something deeply satisfying when the anointed Golden Child gets bested by an overlooked opponent. Nothing personal against Boots. He seems like a nice guy and there's nothing Bronerish about him. But the hype hasn't been backed up. At least not yet.

        This is not a test for Boots. It’s a showcasing fight while marching towards Norman and Barrios.

        After that we’re going after Ortiz at 154 Ibs and the rest of the 154 Ibs clowns.
        Oh this one will be a test. It’s a test he may very well pass, but it won’t be easy, and I’d favour Stanionis over Barrios and Norman (Barrios especially).

        Barrios is such a weak belt holder it almost lured Pacquiao out of retirement lol.

          Norman just might be the best of the four current titleholders. He showed good adjustment and resilience after getting tagged in the first round of his last fight with Cuevas. He's got deceptive speed and good power. Maybe better than good power.

            This is a big step up for him.
            If Ennis wins, you know people will be calling Stanionis a Lithuanian cab driver and a bum. If you're a boxer, why are you disrespecting other pro fighters? Didn't you say you were going to leave after Bivol v Beterbiev?

                If am not mistaken, his fight with Ortiz jr. was rescheduled twice, but than never happened. he was waiting for Ortiz jr. for too long.

                    I would have preferred, "The story of how boots and Crawford was never made".

                      But if not, and even if so, I'd like to see him fight more. He's young at has a long period of inactivity when he should be hitting his prime.
