    Why doesn’t bootsy vs bakhram?

    This is the easiest fight to make if bootsy wants a legit opponent for a belt. Coming up to 154 as the IBF champ that was an easy petition and fight to make instead of fighting ANOTHER bum.

      Because he wants to fight a lower level opponent to acclimate to the weight first and probably doesn't prioritise the needs of angry losers on forums.

      Bakhram is the latest Matias, i.e. someone the mouth breathers have latched onto because they got excited by a recent KO. If he gets outboxed by Josh Kelly (very possible) this will all be forgotten.

        i highly doubt josh kelly will out box him, look at what avanesyan did to him and avanesyan is a slower bummier version of bakhram without the power

          damn good point lol

          yeah thats the way someone with ambition who wants to fight people would go alrite u are correct

          i guess boots doesnt fit that bill but we know that already

          this russian guy is not some bogeyman thats just made up stuff after a win but now is the time to go after him before someone else gets to him and gets the credits for fighting the 'dangerous' guy

            The biggest predictor of someone using the word 'bum' on this forum is them being an American male who is dissatisfied with their personal life. Present company excluded, I'm sure.

            If Bakhram is this monster people are suddenly claiming he is then he should walk through Josh Kelly with ease. That probably won't happen, but I suspect he will win.

              boots has had so many opportunities to take on bigger names and hes passed on every one of them lol & his fans say he cant get any big fights because hes too good, he had plenty of time to even make himself a mando for bud crawford if he wanted back in the day as well, u know do it the ole fashioned way, it actually works if u want it to lol, im afraid its a pattern in boxing nowadays, u can clearly see who goes down this path

                im British, and i never said he is a bum, just a bummier version of bakhram, avanesyans never been a legit world champion but respect to him for ending the kerman lejarraga and josh kelly hype also for beating the ghost of shane mosley.

                  I'm less pessimistic about the Boots situation than you are. The Crawford fight just wasn't meant to be and there was no one left after Stanionis. He's going to have to face the best at 154lbs to make the money he wants and those fights will happen next year.

                  The Lima fight is equivalent to Mayweather - Bruseles. Quite incredible to think Floyd was prepared to fight a WBC eliminator at that stage of his career.
