    Ridiculous. Bootsy ennis can’t even sell in Philly his last fight was 30% compd and a lot of them didn’t even come. You see at Vergil's fight all the people who were there? Then look at their records. Also the fact bootsy already once turned down HUGE money for this fight from turki costing Vergil a bag. Anyone who knows anything about boxing knows that Eddie is full of BS.

      Big question is IF it gets signed. I think Goldenboy is throwing out too many hurdles already. Eddie, if AJ is anything to go by, he's willing to face weaker opposition to continue bringing in cash while avoiding the fight everyone wants.

        Of course, there it is. The IN-BUILT excuses that were prepared perhaps months ago.

        Spence is a carer defining fight for Ortiz so yeah, go after that broken past his prime injured and retired Spence.

        Oh! Here it comes … the insults and disparages. As expected.

          The top 2 P4P fighters in the game. Tremendous fight. Verdict, split-draw. It may take 6 fights to split them. Nash out - His Majesty

            its got a lot of potential ingredients to make it good

            The AA v mexi angle which is usually good

            Both undefeated & both going well

            The time now is perfect for the matchup but the timing is also slightly odd with turki wanting to make the matchup earlier in the year but not interested now so that now causes an issue

            Then u have oscar who im sure is determined to milk ortiz for all he can, im sure oscar would like to put the boots fight on the back burner & get ortiz fighting the likes of spence charlo & whoever 'building the brand' then maybe maybe boots down the line, he doesnt want to risk ortiz having a tim tzu time where he went from hero to zero in short order with a hard run of opponents, it can happen

            ortiz would need to over rule oscar and say yeah i want the fight now but his talk is not like that at all now, hes changed his tune, i presume having the turki cash off the table has contributed to that, hell even eddie might not be against boots getting a belt and unifying with ortiz down the line if he can get a belt and turki involved again, so i doubt the fight happens next

              If Bootsy wants more money he has to beat some better people. If he understands that his record is a joke when compared to Ortiz”s. If thinks it’s an easy fight like you and everyone says then take less (which is completely valid position when you compare the 2”s resumes) win the fight and then everything Ortiz has will be his. If he wants more money he should start fighting better opponents to give his position more leverage. Thats all I’m saying, that’s a completely logical and valid stance, which is what anyone who knows anything about boxing understands. Thats what Oscar said too basically. Y’all just so pathetic and don’t want bootsy to ever fight anyone EXCEPT Ortiz bwahahaha. Funny thing is WHEN that fight happens yall gonna be brought back to reality.

                I don’t get the perfect timing? Bootsy is literally unknown. What big fights has he been in? Who has he beat? What makes this a good fight besides the sparring stories of ennis from bread man? Lmao. Wake up

                    One guy flew out to jump in the ring and issue a challenge. The other guy did not. The optics look very bad for Vergil, Fishnets and Robert Garcia.
