Dumb fight for Teo to take. Ennis should win this pretty decisively in his comfortable weight class. Let alone just being superior p4p
best thing he can teach him is how to focus on the task and not his own little hype machine. acting cool is for after the fight, in the ring it should be all business. also teach him how to have a plan b ready for everything you do. if you know he has a lazy jab, and you prepare by practicing coming over his jab, be prepared for what his most likely adjustment will be. be ready to defeat that adjustment. you should never be unsure of what you need to do at any time. be deliberate in everything you do in the ring. consistency is the key at these levels.
This isn't a good fight for Boots, not because he won't win (I say he makes Teo look very bad), but because he's not going to get credit for the win. This is a lose/lose for Boots. If he's going to continue his WW quest, he shouldn't be fighting anyone other than the other titlists (and yes I'm aware that they really aren't keen on fighting him). If he really wants the belts, he should take short money over his opponents, and I know that's a bitter pill to swallow but sometimes you just have to get them in the ring. Hope this fight with Teo doesn't happen.
Dont know why Teo is thinking about going to 147 and jumping into someone as big of a puncher and gifted as Boots. As flawed as Boots has shown recently I feel like he might be too big for Teo to handle.
The Super Middleweight Booty Anus is terrified of fighting the Welterweight Ortiz, but has no problem fighting the Lightweight Teo. It keeps getting worse and worse for the hype-job duck.
Teo is really small, Bootz is really big.. would be one helluva matchup. bootz would be chasing Teo all over the ring.. Hope the fight happens
i dont think teo is as small as many people seem to think. he has a wide back, thick bones, and he looks pretty ripped in the ring, so he can probably carry more weight naturally. boots isnt as ripped, just looks like a healthy guy. boots is only 2" taller, which will hardly be noticeable in the ring. the problem for teo is the 6" reach advantage. if reynoso can teach him how to get inside that reach, and exit correctly, he has the speed of leg and reflexes to do it. boots is no master boxer, he can be outmaneuvered. i like this fight for teo, hes aiming high. i like it for boots as well, its a big payday at a time you cant get a unification.
I was at the Mirage after lockdown and watched Teofimo at the sportsbook. hard to believe that the Mirage hotel is being bulldozed as we speak. I thought he was finished after his 1 loss but he has bounced back comfortably
It's an interesting fight cause Boots has looked very hitable in recent fights but I think Ennis would win
He has a better chance vs Barrios, but I'm not exactly sure he for sure beats him. Teo lost to Kambosas. I'm not sure he is as sure a thing as many make him out to be vs some of his peers.
Barrios is garbage. Truly an average fighter in the grand scheme. A focused Teo beats the brakes off Barrios. As for Teo vs Boots? I definitely favor Ennis by KO, but Boots has shown enough holes lately that Lopez might give him problems early. The strength and power disparity will show in the end though.
