    Right call, health always comes first and as the OP said it was a poor card to begin with.....unless a certain Benn can save the day?

    david avanesyan or Barrios (even though he already walked away from the fight once) would be the most credible. And Barrios just fought and would be ring ready. Honestly both are more credible than Crowley anway............I don't think Egidisus Kava has fought in a while so doubt he's ring ready.

    I legit feel bad for Boots, his style he should be in the ring 3-4 times a year and he's been slowed to a crawl

    Crowley didn't really have much of a chance anyways.

    Maybe bring Conor Benn as a late replacement. I think that would be interesting.

    Load him up with all the egg fertility drugs you want to and Boots still scrambles Benns last nine brain cells.

    Mean Machine would be a good replacement but he's not rated in the IBF's top 15 and E-Hearn said it would be a fighter who was and that they were in discussions with 4 or 5 of them

    NOT RATED

    Agreed. This should haven't ever been a fight for Boots.

    In many states it is illegal for them to refuse a refund if the main event participants change.
    Happened to me for Pacman vs Spence. Got a refund no problem.
