Not heard much on the British forum about Boots Ennis win last week , Guys very very impressive , i think when he gets the title and he will , He's going to rule for quite a while , My xmas wish , Benn Eubank can't sell , Benn fights Boots , jeez i would fly over to England pay for front row seats , just to watch that KO , , I'd be the one dancing in the aisle , high fiving everyone , while the stretchered Benn out

Crawford vs Boots, after Craw wins Spence, is the best matchup.

he is a beast, he's got that elite flashy p4p talent, but in a destroyer style

Its hard to fault him is'nt it , maybee he got hit a bit more than normal last outing , but it did'nt dent him ,, Not a big fan off switch hitting , but when your Hagler or Boots its a joy to watch , Love the way he carrys his power when he switches a lot don't which to me make it silly to do , this guy though , left or right hand he can hurt you , fast becoming my new favorite fighter too watch

He absolutey the real deal. The problem is he'll have to move up to prove it. All of a sudden 147 has no depth. He's already no3. Even if crawford or spence win easily by ko they'll not fight boots. They'll move up. If its close/contentious then they'll rematch.
Ortiz is fucked. He'll retire.
Stanionis is best available and he'd run through him.
135/140 is the stacked divisions but none of them are gonna move up to fight him.
Nothing out there for him.

I’ve said the same.
The reality is tho; Benn is LEVELS below.

Boots v benn is a win win. Boots gets a payday and uk exposure. Benn gets brutally knocked out. I'd even respect benn for taking it.
Ne chance it happens mind!

If we put his struggles in his previous two fights down to making weight then at 147 Josh Taylor gives him a good test maybe

None of the champions want a bar of him.
The only way he can succeed is to get #1 contender status and legally force mandatory title shots.
Its the sad state of the sport. No one is interested in a challenge or proving they are the legit champion.

Aye, be a good shout, but imagine Taylor would want a couple of easyish type fights before jumping in with any of the top guys.

Ennis would punch holes in Taylor IMO

Alls i see there is a total total mismatch , I really see Boots has being more than competetive right now for Spence or Crawford ,, Don't think we will see him in with any of these two , retirement , and or move up is on the cards for them , Boots will be paitent then reign for a long time
