    Mega talented and exciting to watch, but other than Stanionis who no one knows:
    1. Crawfrod likely to retire soon
    2. Spence probably going to 154
    3. Ortiz definitely going to 154

    Wish there were more names at WW for him to make some huge fights.

    Would be great to see him brutalize Josh Taylor.

    Taylor? That would be a waste of fight. He is not a 147 lb fighter.

    He did call out Stanionis. Think that fight gets made; Stan has been preparing for a war for too damn long.

    I'd love to see Ennis and Keith Thurman. Thurman still thinks he has what it takes, this would be his chance.

    Good fighter, but he reminds me of Broner. That's not good.

    I dont know. It just reminds me of broner. His style, how he moves. Borner was a hell of a talent. It was his brain what was broner's problem, not his talent.

    I just hope ennins' brain is OK, or at least good enought to give his best in the ring during his whole career.

    Not really Broner came across as an ass and looked like a Mayweather wannabe.

    Ennis is a highly skilled switch hitter with blazing speed and very heavy hands.

    I dont like broner either, but lets show some respect for a guy who won world titles in 4 different weights, while ennis fought yesterday for the IBF interim belt. There are levels in this sport, and ennis will probably be better than broner, I concur, but today he hasnt proved it already.

    I agree with what your saying but again Broner's 4 championships in 4 divisions is a bit of smoke/mirrors. Looking at it without context it sounds impressive, until you realize he was winning championships off B level fighters.

    Broner didn't look like he had same potential as Ennis does early on to me, I remember seeing Broner get a gift vs Ponce De Leon early in his career.

    But again I agree we need to see more of Ennis against top guys, unfortunately I don't think he will get a shot at either Spence or Crawford.
