Comments Thread For: Jaron Ennis levels up, blasts out Uisma Lima inside one round?

[Lefty0616]

This fight was on DAZN or PPV right? I didn't bother to watch it. It's not to say that I didn't want to watch it. I have to pick and choose where I spend my dollars. It seems as though just about every bout, whether good or bad, is finding its way on something that's too expensive for my tastes - I'm not getting my money's worth.

I remember when HBO or SHOW cost $10-20 per month.....and they had way more content than than boxing.

This money grab is ridiculous. Something has to change.

Nice win by Jaron Ennis. He brought his power up to 154. That good to know. Now let’s see him fight some of the stiffer challenges and competition at the Super welterweight division beginning with Vergil Ortiz. He is on on the trajectory to unifying that division.

One down

Only three more exhibitions to go

Lmfao at Boots

But but nothing

We’re coming after ALL the four belts especially your boy Ortiz. He will suffer the same fate as this “exhibition” we just witnessed.

I gotta ask and I shudder to even ask it but it has to be asked - when Boots beats up Ortiz, will you move goal posts and make new demands of whom he should beat?

[champion4ever]

Right now Boots might just be the best fighter in that weight division. For my money he knocks both of the Mexican fighters out like: Fundora and Ortiz.

If you stand and trade with him then you are in trouble.
Bakhram Murtazaliev just may be his stiffest challenger yet at 154.

He is an Eastern European fighter who can punch and also has a good chin.

The question remains. Can Boots handle top 154 guys?

Ortiz is not beating Boots. I seriously doubt that he will even still fight Jaron now. Fundora will but he would be chin checked by Ennis.

Why did the WBA create an 'interim' belt for this?

[Toprope]

Yeah, I wasn't sure what Lima would bring to table and which apparently was a napkin. He got absolutely dominated by Boots and didn't deserve to be in the ring with him. I know everyone wants Boots- Ortiz but I'll happily take Boots - Murtazaliev.

You were not sure, you can't be serious, Lima, underdog 3000, bottom ranked, against former unified 147 on the move up, safe as **** Eddie Hearn promoting, and you admit you were not sure, every possible sign was there for you. Learn about boxing man.

[A.B Counterhooks]

Everyone except one time who needs an opponent.

"Once upon a time" needs an opp indeed lol, but lets be real Boots would prolly beat his old faded ass and most would still criticize him for his opponent selection, quite frankly I would prefer Bootsy taking on Fundora, Murtazaliev, even Zayas why not, in case the Ortiz fight keeps getting marinated lol. I wont criticize Ennis cause he got that dude out there quick. Onto the next one.

[Cyborg Fangerloo]

Will we EVER see Boots with an A fighter? He calls everyone out all the time but never gets the great fights. Why? Is it him and his promotion or is he avoided?

• He has repeatedly said he wants big-name opponents, moved up weight classes, and his promoter claims offers are on the table.
• At the same time, he’s made decisions (or has had constraints) about timing, contract terms, and weights, which might create delays or missed opportunities.
• Also, some criticism might stem more from fans wanting a blockbuster fight (like Ennis vs Ortiz) than from an objective analysis of all the behind-the-scenes business dynamics.
