DC all you had to say was you’re mentally slow and we’d all congratulate you.

Clock is ticking mi amigo. Winter is coming. Like literally Jan 20 is winter....and it's coming real soon. Hahahahaha

Boots is a physically gifted and talented fighter. He isn't a great fighter. Yet. He has the tools to do great things, but he hasn't put it all together.

I won't give him too much crap about last night. Karen had been in the ring with him and he fought well. Ennis was plainly overreaching trying to get the KO. Boots was obviously brought up incredibly slow and his team and trainers know his weaknesses and his strengths. You don't get to 27 having fought no one with that kind of physical advantage unless you are being protected. He isn't a great boxer, he is just physically a hard challenge.

He can make adjustments and get better. Right now he gets beaten and possibly stopped by an A level guy.

Wow. Dudes run n everyone hates say they soft. Boots doesn’t mind getting tagged, n both him and his opponent make a fun fight. Fun besides the grabbing that causes what I hate the most, when ref gets involved every 10 seconds. Of course I see boots can sharpen his defense but I don’t mind a fight with him showing he can take the other guy’s punches n it was fun to watch. Not the best fight but as soon as he listens to these comments and turns into shakur u all gonna bash on him for the opposite reason

Apart from the defence, even his offense was disappointing to me. The power and speed was not that impressive and he was not setting up his offense very well at all, just coming forward trying to throw bombs.

Bottom line is Boots needs to get away from Eddie and Dazn cause they are ruining his career. He was progressing nicely under the careful watch oh Espinoza a d real American boxing people at Showtime. Now he's under inferior euro boxing folks who don't have a clue what they're doing with him

Interesting title to the article and interesting take. I criticized the need for the rematch and the quality of the initial bout but I actually thought the fight was pretty entertaining and Chukhadzhian gave a very good account of himself.

If anything, I think this was Boots toughest fight to date and showed a lot of his flaws and perhaps was an indicator of the level of his next fight.

Bout time somebody said it. Multiple pages about Ennis being sloppy. Chuk mustve trained like crazy and obviously with new techniques. Did Papachenko come to help with this camp?

He executed the 2.0 plan well, except when he started to rely on clinching a little too much. Good angles, check hooks, movement, pressure and evasiveness. It's one recipe to beat Boots for somebody who can execute it with a little more power.

Great effort on Chuk's side.

I guarantee the majority of posters on BS now don’t even know who Meldrick Taylor was as a fighter

Even casuals like me know Meldrick Taylor. He was the second coming of Sugar Ray Leonard... with more pizazz.

The controversy with Richard Steele is unanswered til this day.

Everyone has their own opinion when he fought JCC.

MT had guts. Went toe to toe the whole fight.

ortiz jr would demolish boots. A few of the guys at 154 would. Karen won 4 rounds clearly tonight

So what if Karen won 4 rounds? He still lost in the end, didn’t he?
This is the problem with boxing - expecting a Floyd-like domination in every fight.

Man this is the main reason I'm happy the orange man won last Tuesday. On Jan 21st 2025 about 80% on these clowns will be going back on the other side of that wall and I can't wait!

There are over 50 million naturalized American citizens. So your wish is for 40 million of them to get kicked out?

Lol well, to be fair Bud fought those names back in 2019-20 respectively, both well known established former WC names I may add, meanwhile, Boots was fighting for a vacant IBO belt back then Lol. Lets be honest here Boots wouldn't have had any chance back then, hell, probably still doesn't.

You know who else is well known and established like Khan and Brook? Barrios and PAC so let’s all get excited when Boots decides to fight either. Amiright?
