Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Teofimo Lopez-Boots Ennis is 'fight we want'

[champion4ever]

I really like this one and believe Teo whips boots, however I don’t believe Boots wants to fight any top fighter from any division.

You are kidding us right? Teo would be a walk in the park for Ennis.

Jaron never weighed a 135 lbs as a professional but Teofimo Lopez has. Which means he is the naturally smaller guy.

He has nothing to keep Boots off of hm.

At least teo will sign for the fight boots will say he doesn’t know about negotiations turn down the fight and tell his plans at a later date ROFL

The problem is not Ennis. It’s his pops Bozy who is turning down these high profile fights; First with Crawford and now with Vergil Ortiz. Bozy will sign to fight Teo because he is perceived more as the larger reward with the lesser risk.

The man Teo should fight is Devin Haney. Bill has been trolling and dragging their name all over social media in order to get a fight with them.

It shouldn’t be a hard fight to make. Since the Haneys have worked with Top rank before and Devin is now a free agent.

the more i think about it the more i like teo boots, its a good interesting fight & a bit of a yardstick fight for boots maybe, teo is now a well established 140 guy after nearly dying at 135 but i think he would be a bit small at 147, if boots is anything like they say he is he should beat teo, im actually surprised teo is going this route, well done teo if he does go ahead with it, its a brave unexpected move, why do i think it wont happen lol, hope it does tho

Teo whips boots same way he beat Loma and Taylor. Boots ain’t seen nothing. He’s all smoke and mirrors.

We are all boxing fans and have our own biases but man, yours is off the charts!
I’m guessing Crawford’s been ducking Teo too out of fear he would get beat the same way Loma and Taylor got beat?

I’m just as shocked as you are that there are boxing fans out there who believe the shït they write.

It's crazy because Teo vs Tank is the fight to be making at this point in time...Fights like this make no sense at all..Boots would walk right through Mr. No more 6 footers..Teo is one of these boxers that's gonna let his prime fly by then he's going to look up and next thing he knows he's 30 years old. Boots as well, move up dude...

Throw Tank in there as well who's already 30 years old..These young guys now aren't building much of a legacy.. Teo is maybe the only one has had at least 1 legacy defining fight..that he lost imo bc I thought Loma had came back and won that fight or a draw at the least..

Keyshawn hasn't Done Shiet. Loma and Taylor were above Keyshawn.

Keyshawn is scared of a guy who is 4-0, Andy Cruz.

He is scared on Andy Cruz for a good reason - he beat him four times in the amateurs. Andy's hands are faster and more accurate.

I think it would be a difficult fight to make money wise because both Teo and Davin think they are mega starts and deserve mega dollars when in reality neither one has a substantial fan base to leverage. Bob Arum will not agree to lose money on these two guys.

[Jack_sh*t]

Oh, but the money's so good - just get a grip on yourself.

You should know..
