    I’d like to see it, but I have a feeling Thats a fight that will get marinated a little too long.

    Boots annihilates Fundora and Ortiz you people are crazy. Nobody beats Boots from 154-160 except Janibek Alimkhanuly. That's a totally different beast.

    But its crystal clear Crawford would have beaten Boots, probably by KO

    That’s a prime example of a competitive beatdown. Xander done well to come back after the first round but Boots is real man, entertaining fight. I’d like to see Boots fight a real heavy handed guy now just so he can show his boxing instead.

    If you ain’t got the power to make Boots respect you he’s gonna run right through you. Great fight.

    Ennis vs Ortiz is still the fight. Never forget Conor Benn said he would have no problem standing and trading with Ennis. Laughable.

    I don't think it'd be a war. Crawford is a sniper and on a different level.

    Boots has the hand speed and power but lacks any sort of footwork or head movement. His chin is also shaky.

    No, he's tailor made for Ennis, who would stop him.

    Boots Ennis is clearly #1 at 154. I think he's improved the past two years, it seems 154 is his ideal weight division.

    I think I would make Ortiz the favorite against Ennis. Hits harder than Zayas.

    The DAZN glazing of Boots here is off the scale. He's amazing to watch from an entertainment perspective, but he's so defensively poor in comparison to the quality of his offense. If he can make himself harder to hit, then he will be very hard to beat, but he's not changing that style, and it's going to get him in some trouble. I would pick Fundora to beat Boots. Crawford would've made him look amateurish.

    Boots was a couple of good shots from being stopped in the 3rd by a 154 who doesn't actually hit that hard at the weight. I don't want to be too negative, though. He came through hell in that round and smashed Xander to pieces. Great fight, well done to Boots, very very gifted athlete.

    Nah he beats Virgil who doesnt seem keen on fighting him. Boots will overwhelm him with speed power boots is different. Xander would give Ortiz hell boots is on a higher level than both.

    Ortiz is a slightly more competitive version of the Stanionis fight, Boots has a good chin. People are making too much out of that brief moment. He ate other shots just fine
