Comments Thread For: Dulorme Fails Second COVID-19 Test; Ennis Might Fight Van Heerden 12/19

Van Heerden is the guy that sparred McGregor and pieced him up after Paulie got worked.

Van Heerden sparred Mcgregor before Paulie did get your facts straight.

I'm not mad at this replacement he is durable should be a good test for Ennis to see where he really is at.

I don't remember that, but I do remember how savagely Spence beat him down a few years ago. I believe he's South African. I'm wondering if it's the same guy I'm thinking of.

Same guy, yes.

Van Heerden sparred him after Paulie quit and went home, bro.

Van Heerden is tough. Fairly feather fisted, but had his moments vs Spence. He didnt go down until Spence hit him with a blatant rabbit punch.

He was getting pummeled so badly by Spence, it gave me a migraine just watching it. Tex Cobb was "tough" too.

Then I stand by what I said. Boots Ennis is a very talented fighter who should not be fighting someone like Van Heerden. Who's next after him, Chris Algieri. The idea behind matching a hot prospect is to eventually see him operate when he faces a little resistance. When Ray Leonard was coming up, they put him in with good fighters like Randy Shields, Marcos Geraldo and Andy Price.

No he didn't but ok he was sparring Van Heerden in 2016. I guess Chris went to the future after they sparred in 2016 and went and sparred against Mcgregor again in 2017 after Malignaggi sparred him.

Both are garbage fights, Ennis needs to finally step up against a decent guy.

Van Heerden is like going to the graveyard. Again, I think Ennis isn't the goods, mostly hype. He should at least fight a live prospect like Daniyar Yeleussinov. This guy needs to step up his game.
