Comments Thread For: Clock?s ticking: Jaron Ennis won?t ?stick around? to unify remaining titles

[Jrock56]

Ennis looked like a light heavyweight in the ring with Staniones. He can fight any weight in between. At 147 he’s the bully

If the other titlists don't want the fight, then move up. Much bigger and better fights with Ortiz and Murtazaliev, and try the middleweights, whom I think he'll beat now.

Let's be honest, he's very big, and he can comfortably fight at super middleweight probably. So Ennis vs Canelo is realistic.

I dont even think Mario will beat his mandatory Souleymane Cissokho or Devin Haney ( #1) if both of them win later this year. He should just fight boots for the payday.

I can't even see devin fighting boots.

What a weak lie. Booty ennis has no intention of moving up and fighting real competition. He's gonna stay in that weak division until all the top guys beat each other

Oh, it’s you again. The keyboard warrior who calls professional boxers bums.

The term “bully” doesn’t exist. Boxing has been like this for DECADES. You either make the weight or you don’t. If you make the weight you fight. Those that lose who have “fans” that blame it on weight can move down if the power is too great. This isn’t a novel concept. Welcome to boxing. We like new fans to the sport.

Ok Boots this is your '2018 Bud Crawford moment'. In 2018 Bud had a chance to take it to the next level by leaving Top Rank and going where all the talent was in his division at PBC. Instead he choose to resign with Top rank and was fed a steady diet of C level talent. He waited all those years to finally get just one guy in Shawn Porter to "cross da skreet". Had he went to PBC he probably would have run through the entire PBC squad and it would have been Bud Crawford that would've taken the top spot from Errol Spence and he would've been the PPV super star. He would be at 154 fighting Jermell, Tszyu, Fundora, KEEF and the rest of the PBC JMWs. Boots is on the verge of making the same mistake if he doesn't go and sign with Al. Hearn cannot make all those fights he needs. Dazn does not have the bandwidth to make Boots a PPV star in America. Only Al Haymon has a track record of making PPV stars like Mayweather, Spence, Wilder and Tank and is currently putting 100% support behind Benevidez to make him a star. Hearn even said it himself doing the post fight conference "we can make fights for Boots in Saudi and then Riyadh season". Hearn is once again using an American boxer to help his company. This will only destroy Boot's profile. All of Boots fights from 147-168 are with PBC. They are not with Matchroom. Dont make that mistake Boots!

Peace & Blessings! I'm afraid that Boots' pursuit of "Undisputed" will be just as harmful to his career as Crawford's pursuit of the same @ 140! Also eerily similar is when Crawford demanded Pacquiao to come to 140, instead of fighting him @ 147, just like Boots turning down Vergil Ortiz Jr.! Of course Vergil is not Pacquiao, but I know you get what i'm saying! Beating Vergil would have put him on the path to Superstar!

He is going to have to move up. That tells you all you need about boxing today. 147 used to be the 'blue riband' division, it used to be thick with talent. NoMo. Norman is Ok, nothing special there. Barrios has already been KO'd by Keith Thurman. There is nobody of quality around & nobody coming up from 140, Haney or Garcia, would be even remotely a challenge. Sad, boxing is dying bro

Don't watch, you always can look at figue skating MF'er!

[Knuckle sandwich]

No smoke never fought Crawford, never fought the best!

Sorry. Disagree. Lots of things have been around for decades. If they were wrong then they are wrong now.

In a perfect world we'd see fighters of similar weights in the ring as well as the scales.

But certain fighters have the genetics (all races btw) to be able to cut and then massively rehydrate. This means that the fight is not just a competition if skill but also a competition of who has the favourable genetics to rehydrate 2 weight divisions.
