Comments Thread For: Daily Bread Mailbag: Shakur Stevenson-Floyd Schofield, Boots Ennis-Vergil Ortiz negotiations, and what happened in the corner between Galal Yafai and Sunny Edwards

Also I mean…Hearn got him the Ortiz fight him and his dad asked for and got him action at 154 like he said he wanted after his last fight so as much as I don’t like Eddie I can’t blame him for this one

That is correct sir. Eddie get a lot of hate lol(mostly justified)but HE DID try to secure Boots a big fight with a big bag courtesy of his Sheikh Boss 'His Excellency , unfortunately the email champ dont want no 54 smoke. Boy aint ready.

We're on Boots case right now. Ryan Garcia is a whole different animal.

[Jab jab boom]

I literally quoted the guy and proved everything he said was wrong. That simple.

Meanwhile you're just playing the whiny victim card which is usually what you people do when you have no facts and get your feelings hurt

You didn’t quote anything to me ya tart. Really starting to believe your parents are brother and sister. And there’s nothing to quote. I commented about idiot fans, you fit the bill and got emotional. Try and keep up bozo.

"We have to hear hearns, Boots and bozo side of the story"

Yeah we did. Booty said he had no idea about the negotiations lmfao hearns said a bunch of nonsense and bozo is bozo

"That means if the fight is for February that means he has to train during Christmas "

What!? Has there been a lamer excuse? Who tf is booty ennis to not have camp during Christmas for a big fight? Everybody on the card is working thru christmas

"They said zayas was gonna fight ortiz but it didn't happen so is ortiz ducking zayas"?

Lmfao man bumman is pathetic. Ortiz Sr already said turki had 4 names for them and they said zayas was the least accomplished so they passed on him.


Booty ennis is trash bumman so just admit it.

Surely Boots is a hardcore Christian and the Lord would punish him heavily if he were to have camp on Christmas. I now understand and will give Boots a pass....

Shameful response from Breadcrumbs here, after all that **** riding he’s done throughout the yrs for Boots no way anyone could expected him to be transparent on this matter. What’s even worse is him bringing up the idea of Vergil ducking Zayas b/c he’s fighting Madrimov SMH.. I’m done reading from this casual boxing coach as the old saying goes only time reveals the truth and the truth is Boots a duck. Philly should be ashamed to have someone like him rep their city

Whilst I agree that his bias towards Boots is indefensible, I have to call out your reading comprehension for saying that he insinuated that Ortiz is ducking Zayas.

Quite the opposite actually.

You really need to sharpen your comprehension skills bro

Ya I’m done reading this guys “bread bag”. Says ennis will stop Ortiz and says people are making him into the next Andrade. No, he’s the one who went on talking about he needs to move up needs to fight someone better he had an easy fight he has 3 months to prepare career high payday and bum a$$ bread man says Ortiz is somehow future ducking him? Ridiculous lol. Boots is 29 Ortiz is 24. The fact ennis hasn’t had a competitive opponent even on paper yet is ridiculous and him coming out it public defending it makes his opinions as a trainer kind of a joke

Except for the fact that Boots is 27 and Ennis is 26 years old.

The fact that you had to so blatantly lie just shows how much lacking in credibility and full of nonsense you are.

Nothing you post is worth reading.

I hope Bread gets paid well for these mailbags because a lot of you guys are dumb as rocks. That combined with being tribalists but ironically criticizing others so called “biased” stances just because they conflict with your tribalism is like dealing with a 4 year old in the middle of tantrum. And it’s typically the same repeat offenders. The fan base that get defensive of Ortiz, Canelo, Ryan and Chavez are the league leaders in the idiocy. They’re not alone but definitely are the main offenders.

While everything you just said is true it doesn’t however negate the fact that Boots blatantly ducked Vergil Ortiz.

I’m not surprised either because I saw through Boot’s bs during the Spence-Crawford saga already.

Don’t get me wrong I’m not question his talent, he has that in Spades.

But just like Jermall Charlo and Demetrius Andrade, Boots’s mentality does not match his talent.

He is a mental midget and he is his own worst enemy.

[Doubledagger]

Bread asks if Vergil Ortiz is ducking Zayas. The answer is no, because Ortiz might be fighting Madrimov instead which is a way tougher fight.

Just ask Terence Crawford.

It was a rhetorical question goofy.

Although I don't fully agree with Breadman's response, I do think he has a lot of valid points, which are related to how he has never cared much about how fans spend all their time accusing boxers of ducking and spreading hate. Breadman's points about the advantages that Ortiz would have rest and training-wise are real, and what he says about the racial aspect of this type of debates is also on point, even if a bit excessive in this context. Breadman clearly gets frustrated and probably angry at the disrespectful tone of the haters; I would too. There are ways to disagree respectfully, sadly nowadays people have a hard time doing that.

Now, if you ask me, Boots made a mistake career-wise by not facing Ortiz. even with the advantages Breadman mentions, a boxer in Boots' position should challenge himself and accept the risks at hand, like the boxers of yore. My own frustration with Boots is that he is showing to be not that different from the Gervontas of the world, who are content with being businessmen instead of hardcore boxers. Maybe there is more reasons for Boots to have passed on this fight, but as everything stands it does seem he is playing it safe.

Why doesn't Breadman admit that Boots is playing it safe? People forget that both Breadman and Boots are from Philly, and the boxing community folks here usually have each other's backs. They may not be very close, but Breadman knows Boots since he was a kid, and he's just not going to throw him under the bus publicly like that. Even though I would probably not do it myself, I respect that stance. Haters will always hate, Breadman has a lot of wisdom to share, and I will be here to read him, even when I don't agree with him. I do admit he's not the most trustworthy voice on Boots.

Well said. I do agree with you one hundred percent.
