Comments Thread For: Ennis and Hearn tell Barrios and Norman that they should dare to be great

[DJrabit]

I think Boots opponent was always overrated fighting fighters that were only ranked cuz the wbc is in bed with pbc .

Ennis didn't dare to be great when ask to fight Ortiz.
He will wait for the pay days of Ryan, Haney, and Teo. I don't see anyone beating boots at 147.

He just wants undisputed at 147. Norman/Barrios and then move up to 154. Ortiz's style is perfect for Boots…people that think he ducked him will find out.

None of those guys are big money fights and none of them are top fighters. Barrios is weak and Norman is Unproven. It's not like he is beating the likes of Spence or Crawford.

I could have found out last Feb, but someone wanted easier opponents. He could have fought Ortiz and then came back. Mayweather did that multiple times.

Boots is not part of PBC

I know it's his job, but sometimes Eddie Hearn talks too much

By the time bootsy gets to 154 Ortiz will be gone up to 160. His next fight will most likely be against fundora, then bek then up to 154 if he makes it that far. The time for the fight was now. Bootsy is 28 years old Vergil is 26 they’re in their primes they were both free there was a big money offer on the table. Absolutely no reason that fight doesn’t get made unless bootsy is DUCKING. He sat after the stan fight and said when asked if Norman was ducking him and he said “he took 150 grand for his last fight instead of 2 million to fight me, what that tell you?”. Very hypocritical wouldn’t you say? By bootsys own standard Vergil could say he ducked him by taking however less he got to fight Stan instead of the biggest payday of his life to fight Ortiz on the biggest platform of his life too. Right? Make it make sense

He dared to be G*r*a*p*e in the 4th grade Fruits & Veggies school play.
Otherwise, not so much.

It looks bad now if they don't take the fight and boxing fans won't forget.

• If you're a champion you should be ready for all comers - otherwise, give up the belt and fight weaker opposition
• If the fight is your biggest pay day, and you don't take it - you lack the confidence/belief to win
• If you keep the belt hostage, it's like you want retirement money because you realise you could get hurt and might not be the same again

I can't make it make sense to someone as dumb as you but I can try. Boots vs Virgil was always a welterweight fight not a junior middleweight fight. It's not Boot's fault that Virgil came down with a case of quesadilla-itis. He should've been more professional and took care of his diet. Trying to say he had Rhabdo-taco-lysis is just a fuqqing excuse to run from Boots at welter. Boots is primed to be the next American superstar and he doesn't chase Virgil on Virgil's term. Once he cleans up 147 like he said then he will go up and beat the shyte out of Virgil. His peice of shyte promoter tried to force him to go up before he was ready because Hearn is horrible at promoting American fighters and he has proven that with Devin, Andrade, Jacobs, Tevin, Shakur and now Boots. Hey where's that white kid Nikita "white chocolate" Ababiy? I thought Hearn said we was the next great middleweight. What happened to that? hahahahahahaha

Hearns is such a bad promoter that Shakur and Ennis went to him instead of PBC .

Shakur, Ennis, Joshua, Bivol, Bam Rodriguez ****s on the PBC roster.
