    How is Boots even in the picture? He's a contender at 147 and doesn't have any issue making weight. Boots isn't in the 154 discussion now or in the next 2 years. How are you just going to breeze over Ortiz like that? He's actually at 154 now.

    Ennis might be the Boogeyman but Tszyu is the one you send to kill the ****ing Boogeyman

    Not sure about Tsyzu. Will be keeping an eye out on him in this shark infested waters.

    Errol couldn't handle the Nebraskan cook out, to be fair few could.

    Let's see how he handles another shrimp on the barbie with a side of Russian potato salad.

    It's more about Spence's decline, but Tszyu has been running through all comers and Spence looks extreme hittable and vulnerable.

    Bud has to meet Tsyzu first, he has the power to match the bigger men Spence doesn`t, let Spence fight the winner instead.

    If Boots chooses to go to 154, who gon stop him. It's his prerogative to fight at any weight he chooses. If he and his team feel that 154 has what he wants then it's on. He is a talented and high profile fighter and will be right in the mix at 154, just like Shakur is at 135 , and like Teo who went to 140 and got a title shot. The powers that be in boxing don't care about contender pecking order anymore. That's old. Whoever can make a fight and make money will get the shot. You should know this.

    Bud can fight whoever he wants to. He is at that level now where he can pick and choose. He already said that Tsyzu can get it but right now he is on a personal mission to destroy Charlo.

    You right about that. However, I ain't seen Tsyzu beat a boogyman yet. He beat a couple of boogybums but that's about it.

    I still can't see it. Just like Spence was not special, Tim is also not special, at least yet.

    I never said he beat the boogeyman, you bought that language to the table.
