He has the tendency to not respect power.. that's why he was comfortable staying in the pocket and banging with Karen... I don't fear anything he is throwing back.. he obviously will need to box against 154 talent, but nobody at 147 has anything that boots needs to be weary of
It's funny how people have short-term memories let's not forget that Vergil Ortiz just had a very close fight against a fighter nobody knows about also

Dude. Boots has a problem with his feet and by proxy with lateral movement. Angles led to Karen landing that 3 way too often. a (dumb) midrange jab also was a problem, and after the 6th rd, he left himself square when initiating his own offense at times. Tape doesn't lie. Maybe his feet will be better at 154, but I think his opposition may see him as food. Good luck in the big fight.
This is the best critique I've seen regarding boots. I think it comes from his style of switch hitting and how he looks to generate power. I also want to point out that Karen is an amazing fighter and he deserves more respect
Boots may be struggling to make 147 but if he moves to 154 and faces Murtazaliev he will be in a lot of trouble. Boots too easy to hit and a heavy handed hitter will hurt him. In short Boots is not the heir apparent. Not even close
Madrimov is a better example of a fighter who could mess Boots up at 54. Had you even watched a Murtazaliev fight before the tszyu one? You'd be in the minority if you had - believe me he wasnt that impressive. No doubt a large reason why Tszyu was so terrible that night was baded on what hed seen! Fact is we don't really know how good Muratazeliev is yet. Boots may get more pop at 54, more juice in the tank at 54 and might start using his jab more.
loved when they got to Teddy, he conveyed exactly what I was thinking. basically that Paulie and Chris nailed it with there takes 👌 think Karen deserves a lot of credit too, well trained, tough fighter (very good feet)
I'm surprised that no one mentioned the horrible job done by the corner. You'd expect a solid trainer like Ennis' father to give some tactical advice; rather than the incessant, "get em' outta the there". Perhaps team Ennis needs another set of eyes in their corner that actually studies tape. Lastly, Ennis is known to be a gym rat; so it was pretty annoying to hear the excuses about the guy fighting to the level of his opposition.
@@calripkenboiAnd one of them had 100% ko rate on his victories while the other 50%, do the math because with those defensive flaws if he was fighting a guy like that he was touching the canvas 100%, there's a reason these guys mentioned him, they're not amateurs
Why are people so critical of Boots? Let me break it down like a fraction… Vergil Ortiz did not look good in his last fight. Many people thought he lost. Bud did not look great against Madrimov. Many people thought he lost. Shu Shu Carrington did not look good against his last opponent. Almost everyone thought he lost. And Shakur Stevenson did not look good against Edwin De La Santos. At the end of the day Boots looked better against Karen than all the fighters I just mentioned in their last fights. Yes it may not have been his best performance but nobody questioned whether or not he won and he scored a knockdown! The moral of the story is sometimes boxers have an off night at the office. It happens it’s boxing. You are not going to knock everyone out. People who are now calling him a bum or exposed are just casual fans who know nothing about boxing. Regardless of what all the haters say he still beats everyone at 147. Point blank period!
Beautifully said, we shouldn't be too hard on boots. To be honest I knew he was gonna have a tough time in the rematch against the Ukrainian guy (I forgot his name). He was no joke, I knew he was gonna come in with a lot more confidence than in the first match. Over all it was actually a really good fight. And it's so stupid how despite it being a good fight and people enjoying it as a Good fight. They just shit on the more popular fighter. It's like saying the canelo vs Ryder fight. Look, canelo did not look Great. But holy hell was the fight good. No clinching, pure punching and great infighting by ryder. But in the end people don't see as a good fight cuz canelo(the favorite) didn't look as good as he should have. Boots has great potential, and it's not gonna be visible every fight. Some fights will look easy (then they tell him to fight better people). And some fights will be harder( then people will say he wasn't as good as we thought he was.). Overall that's just boxing. It's more of an art than science. Cuz in science everything must be a fact to be real. But in art even the most talented painters can mess up. But the thing is that artists can make art from their mistakes. But You can't make something go past the theory stage if it fails. Thx for reading my yap session if you did. Many blessings from the Lord and much love 🙏🏻
@lamart3857 yes. This OP has missed taking things in context. No one hyped Ortoz to beat Crawford. Not many considered Ortiz p4p or ATG. No one picked him to beat Crawford. But everyone hyping the crap outta boots. Boots this boots that. He stops Karen in 4 blah blah. and he keeps fighting like this and even Avanesyan fight. Takes flush shots, has no 1 punch ko against top guys. And we still can't call out that his performance was not backing up his hype. All these guys come out and speak like we are being too harsh. Bruh, if you're good fighter, cool. But don't hype up to be a great fighter, special talent and performance like this is unacceptable
That's a bad match-up for Boots. I would even go as far as to say that's a fight Boots could lose. Taking those types of shots at 54 could be a problem. Also Madirmov has very good footwork and that seems to be an issue for Ennis.
I think so too. Like Teddy said....Boots Ennis when he fighting very good fighters he step up and when he fighting low class fighters he isn't show what he can do in the ring.
Yall understand that boots knows the guys he’s fighting can not hurt him this is why he’s really not taking his opponents seriously I blame the boxing world for not testing him and staying away but believe me try him if they dare
Yea but u don’t want to develop bad habits that’s a dumb way of thinking and u can literally see some of those shots did start to have a effect n those later rounds
For me this fight wasn’t a problem because he was clearly rushing. He’s not fighting enough I think he’s getting frustrated. He was also very confident, infact over confident not caring about what’s going to come back. Especially when his opponent ran the first fight.
Boot's is over rated by some, he's good just not great, a fight with him and Ortiz will be an action fight where both have a chance of being stopped, problem American fight fan's have is they over estimate how good their guy's are and under estimate how good a lot of these European boxers are because they have never heard of them.
Boots was determined to knock the guy out and he was hit on a regular basis,for me, boots showed that he will be a great fighter in the future,he has a granite chin and all the skills:boots will be formidable.
" Did Boots Convince", .....uh he definitely convinced the judges and the IBF because he left with a victory and his strap. He even convinced his opponent because in a post fight interview he even conceded that he lost.
Thinking critically,,, Karen took knockout shots in every round.. his chin and endurance definitely the best we seen against a fighter throwing a lot of punches every round trying to knock you out with every one.. I don’t think most guys willing to go through punishment and punches it’s going to take to stay in a fight with boots. . That’s what I seen. This the only guy that was willing.
I believe I could solve boxings problem... They should just have a super champion tournament for all the belts with the top 12 fighters in each division. Have a set purse for each rd... Example rd.1) 2mil, rd.2) 4mil, rd3.) 6mil etc. Each fighter is guaranteed the money, plus each promotion will host each rd... The winner of the tournament becomes the Grand Champion, then goes on to fight for Undisputed... For example, the winner of 130lbs fights the winner of 135lbs at a catch weight for Undisputed and 50mil that each major promotion will put up a share of the purse for each rd n the championship. Match room, PBC, Top Rank, Golden Boy, n Pro Box. Then they should take each undisputed champion over seas and fight the best champions to become the World Undisputed Champion... I know it's a lot, but that's just where my mind is when it comes to this.
We also gotta remember that boots isnt the guy that you want to have defensive lapses against either. Virgil was dropped by a guy that isnt nearly as fast as boots. If we talking knockout artist boots and Virgil are both in the 90s lets not forget this
When Paulie Malignaggi first started talking I don’t know if anybody realized it it almost sounded like it was being fast forwarded when he started talking
5:49 disagree. He weighed in a pound under, that’s not someone struggling to make weight. Him bringing up weight immediately after the fight was him place blame for his performance. Eddy Hearn said that they spoke about his weight prior to this fight and he said he can keep making it comfortably. He also didn’t look tired. The issue was Karen’s movement and angling. Boots footwork wouldn’t allow him to counter that which is why you saw more rough housing as he was smothering to counter the movement.
Chukhadzhain is way better than we thought. I think he beats everyone else in that division. I had it 115-111/116-110 Boots. Boozy was giving Boots horrible advice, this is boxing you can't knock out everyone, if Boots had just boxed dude he would have had a more convincing win. Boots had a great performance- Chukhadzhain is just good.
Paulie!! G. A. R REMARKED LAST WEEK! That he had watched a Ennis recent fight and he was Shocked that Jaron still had Some of the same faults!! COACH OUT😎🤺
Boots will get beat if he moves up to 54 and he will get beat if fight someone with power. Imagine if Karen had any kind of power this would a different conversation right now😂😂😂😂
Karen looked to be kinda slow but was able to land consistently against boots. Part of the reason is he didn’t respect Karen’s power. Boots is a huge welterweight. He probably shouldn’t try that at 154. I think that’s why he stays at 147 and struggles to make weight. Moving up is risky when you get hit alot
Boots was all hype ! Don’t let the hard hitters at 154 touch that chin! Let’s not forget that from 47 to 54 you face bigger guys and you have bigger gloves so his power will carry less.
Look the truth is boots iq and skillz are no where in the universe good eniugh to even pose a threat against a terence Crawford. Theres a lot of worldclass fighters out there, but being a top pound for pound like Crawford and Canello your game has to be vertuoso level,full stop.
Who’s Terence Crawford? Bud will kill him, but Bud will kill all of them. But then again Boots will work well at 154. Chris is right, two things to work on. 1. Defense 2. Power. Well just have to see.
We can all theorize about how this guy or that guy will beat boots, these guys that you are talking about are not signing up to fight Boots. Let charlo, Vergil and Bud show the boxing fans just how beatable Boots is, if they really believe it!
His dad being in the corner didn't help. He was just telling him to finish this guy. What about the distance he was smothering his own punches. And leaving himself in range.
From 2019-2023 the belts at 147 & 154 were on lockdown Boots had to wait at 147 & 154 to get his shot So yeah I feel like it's time to for him to move up 29 fights before a title shot is a lot.
Bottom line is he's the champ and he won. If Boots KO'd Karen it would have not made a difference. Eddie Hearn needs to set up the unification fights for him at 147. He should have signed with PBC in order for it to happen.
Boots literally just went in there from rd 1-12 trying to simply knock Karen out & his pops in the corner wasn’t helping at all just telling him to “get him outta here” Anybody who thinks he’ll fight like this against fighters who actually got a shot is delusional, now am I saying he can’t lose? No, but lets be real here…
How do we know he's suddenly going to get better when he fights someone "better"? We have no baseline to compare it against. How do we know? All we've seen is as the competition increases, he looking worse not better. Basically he's coming forward bullying these dudes with size.
That’s crazy how the internet turn on fighters one time is what Crawford scared and ducking Boots now all of sudden Virgil Ortiz who look terrible last fight would smoke Boots
It’s not going to be easier for Boots at 154 (LMW). If Karen can do this to Boots a 2nd time then some of the guys that Jaron says are avoiding him will be able to really perform well against Boots. Also, not enough people are given Karen his dues. He’s a really hard guy to look good against.
I think people have to watch boots entire career and not just the last two fights. No one gets hit on purpose but he definitely can keep his hands up use footwork angles and head movement he just didn’t do that THIS FIGHT. If you want to look at his skill set. Watch the Romain villa fight and it will show you what he has in his toolbox. You can say he’s not ready for Crawford but when you name fighters who don’t have everything Crawford has it’s just laughable.
Love these vlogs, hate the fact no one from probox responds, not even to select comments. They put on a show, then leave it for the viewers to comment by themselves while probox staff just leaves the room. Feels like very opinionated roundtable stupidity with too much biases.
Thing is boots isn't gonna fare any better against the bigger, stronger dudes at 154 in that they'll push him around & pummel him, he should take a tuneup to get weight acclimated before going in there with ortiz. Ortiz will come after boots & bully him I see boots retreating from vergils pressure.
Can somebody answer why is most people making excuses for boots about weight and all the experts are saying he must improve or he gonna get killed at 154
He should just master his body at 147, Listen, not every boxer you fight can be knocked out. Every fight demands a plan. If you go according to a plan that handicaps you, is to your own disadvantage. Stay knowledgeable enough to see what your opponent is doing and beat them to their game plan. That's what we call being an elite fighter. May weather learnt it and it worked, we already have a blue print of what is possible. What of if just one Punch of Karen knocked him down. Good fighters stays calm when delivering their best. Maison got dropped twice when he was comfortable delivering some combos. Ennis should just learn and correct his mistakes when fighting. Some fighters don't shell up when their opponent comes out brawling, they will punch with you. He should learn from Timzus mistake. My opinion.
I don't think it's better to wait until you face hard opposition. Boxing involves a lot of muscle memory, why get into bad habits. We all saw what happened to H20 Sylve.
Crawford didn't look good against his last opponent the same way and shawn porter hit him A LOT so much so that if he didn't stop porter he would've lost FACTS so to just jump and say boots isn't ready for him is ridiculous they are boxers they need to box.
Ortiz has been protected his whole career and Boots would end his protected career. Boots fought the wrong fight constantly instructed by his father to get him out of there. So because he kept looking for the KO and had no respect for his opponents power he looked bad. He would not fight Ortiz that way and yes he can be better defensively. If Boots chooses to boxing his opponents he is very very difficult to beat for anyone in the game. I only really see Crawford having an edge over him based on experience at a higher level.
Paulie quit it with the pause hahaha has me dying every time 😂😂😂
😂
I thought my brain made that up when I heard it haha
Damn Pauline's voice is so annoying 😂😂😂😂
He is from New York tho

Boots gets hit very often with meaningful punches. When the right guy comes along the shine may become dulll
That's against anyone at 154.
Look at how left hooks just jam into his jaw. it's ugly to look at
May? If most people are wise enough to know he will get stop which means if he fight someone equally on his level it’s over with.
He has the tendency to not respect power.. that's why he was comfortable staying in the pocket and banging with Karen... I don't fear anything he is throwing back.. he obviously will need to box against 154 talent, but nobody at 147 has anything that boots needs to be weary of

True but Vergil fought a 154 big beast big difference that had spared several times that had almost 100 ko rate .
Paulie and Algeri is basically saying Crawford will out point Boots in a 12 rd fight.
When Paulie Malignaggi first started talking I don’t know if anybody realized it it almost sounded like it was being fast forwarded when he started talking
5:49 disagree. He weighed in a pound under, that’s not someone struggling to make weight. Him bringing up weight immediately after the fight was him place blame for his performance. Eddy Hearn said that they spoke about his weight prior to this fight and he said he can keep making it comfortably. He also didn’t look tired. The issue was Karen’s movement and angling. Boots footwork wouldn’t allow him to counter that which is why you saw more rough housing as he was smothering to counter the movement.
We're talking about Boots but man Vergil Ortiz has had MULTIPLE shaky performances.
Chukhadzhain is way better than we thought. I think he beats everyone else in that division. I had it 115-111/116-110 Boots. Boozy was giving Boots horrible advice, this is boxing you can't knock out everyone, if Boots had just boxed dude he would have had a more convincing win. Boots had a great performance- Chukhadzhain is just good.
Paulie and Teddy is gold
Paulie!! G. A. R REMARKED LAST WEEK! That he had watched a Ennis recent fight and he was Shocked that Jaron still had Some of the same faults!! COACH OUT😎🤺
What 147 is more complete then Boots ?
Can your favorite 147 beat Boots ?
Who beats Boots like he beats his Opponents ?
Boots will get beat if he moves up to 54 and he will get beat if fight someone with power. Imagine if Karen had any kind of power this would a different conversation right now😂😂😂😂
Karen looked to be kinda slow but was able to land consistently against boots. Part of the reason is he didn’t respect Karen’s power. Boots is a huge welterweight. He probably shouldn’t try that at 154. I think that’s why he stays at 147 and struggles to make weight. Moving up is risky when you get hit alot
I think these guys forgot Virgil didn’t look so good and got dropped twice his last fight and barely won
I think a healthy injury free Keith Thurman would give boots hell. The way Karen was using his legs boots still didn’t cut the ring.
Boots vs Virgil is the next one at this point that makes sense. Both had dissapointing performances. Theu should be on Riyadh card soon.
Ortiz vs Inness. Let"s bring it on🎉
Boots was all hype ! Don’t let the hard hitters at 154 touch that chin! Let’s not forget that from 47 to 54 you face bigger guys and you have bigger gloves so his power will carry less.
Look the truth is boots iq and skillz are no where in the universe good eniugh to even pose a threat against a terence Crawford. Theres a lot of worldclass fighters out there, but being a top pound for pound like Crawford and Canello your game has to be vertuoso level,full stop.
Who’s Terence Crawford? Bud will kill him, but Bud will kill all of them. But then again Boots will work well at 154. Chris is right, two things to work on. 1. Defense 2. Power. Well just have to see.
@Asaharii3874not against Crawford 🤣
No one is callling for Bud and him after 2 lousy fights .Bud is way ahead of him
Them fools said inuea is great. He got dropped hard. He gets rocked all the time. You guys really disappointe.
We can all theorize about how this guy or that guy will beat boots, these guys that you are talking about are not signing up to fight Boots. Let charlo, Vergil and Bud show the boxing fans just how beatable Boots is, if they really believe it!
I feel like Boots is so fast he gets impatient in there and abandons the fundamentals
Hmmm sounds like everyone is hating on Ennis. Because gervonta loses every rounds getting hit, Abdullah mason got knocked down twice. lol
Anyone else who watched the fight did you hear boots dad say anything other than "cmon man get this guy outta here " no advice on how to do it
Somebody made a point that he's just bored with these opponents and his focus wasn't there
Hopefully, Boots will next face an opponent who lives up to his hype. Then we'll see what his true level is.
His dad being in the corner didn't help. He was just telling him to finish this guy. What about the distance he was smothering his own punches. And leaving himself in range.
Boots need to stay the hell away from Bud ! He will never be the same after that fight !
From 2019-2023 the belts at 147 & 154 were on lockdown
Boots had to wait at 147 & 154 to get his shot
So yeah I feel like it's time to for him to move up 29 fights before a title shot is a lot.
Bottom line is he's the champ and he won. If Boots KO'd Karen it would have not made a difference. Eddie Hearn needs to set up the unification fights for him at 147. He should have signed with PBC in order for it to happen.
Boots literally just went in there from rd 1-12 trying to simply knock Karen out & his pops in the corner wasn’t helping at all just telling him to “get him outta here” Anybody who thinks he’ll fight like this against fighters who actually got a shot is delusional, now am I saying he can’t lose? No, but lets be real here…
He's not struggling to make weight he came in at 146 and look good
How do we know he's suddenly going to get better when he fights someone "better"? We have no baseline to compare it against. How do we know? All we've seen is as the competition increases, he looking worse not better. Basically he's coming forward bullying these dudes with size.
Tank gets hit alot w horrible defense but still dominates lol wild.
Guys he fought a tough opponent. Let's relax a bit.
That’s crazy how the internet turn on fighters one time is what Crawford scared and ducking Boots now all of sudden Virgil Ortiz who look terrible last fight would smoke Boots
It’s not going to be easier for Boots at 154 (LMW). If Karen can do this to Boots a 2nd time then some of the guys that Jaron says are avoiding him will be able to really perform well against Boots.
Also, not enough people are given Karen his dues. He’s a really hard guy to look good against.
Niether one of them learned a damn thing from their first encounter
Virgil arguably lost his last fight now we gonna rate him so high what a joke
Boots is athletic and skilled but people never disc he a big WW and relies on physicality abd size to for durability
At 54 those advantages don't exist or aren't as pronounced and it's diff when guys can hurt u...not just u hurt them bully them
Nobody STILL CANT BEAT Ennis at 147 so everyone should 🥱. These other champions don’t even wont to fight him. Let’s see if they change their mind now
I think people have to watch boots entire career and not just the last two fights. No one gets hit on purpose but he definitely can keep his hands up use footwork angles and head movement he just didn’t do that THIS FIGHT. If you want to look at his skill set. Watch the Romain villa fight and it will show you what he has in his toolbox. You can say he’s not ready for Crawford but when you name fighters who don’t have everything Crawford has it’s just laughable.
Teddy dropping jewels
He should stay at 147 and go for all the belts if he can. If he struggling to make weight God bless him at 154.
I’m not on the Boots hype train. Never have been.
Boots just need to call out Crawford at 154.
I think it was a good fight. Boots is good to me. I’m a paying fan
Paulie, never use Bam Rodriguez in the same sentence with Floyd Mayweather.
You know you wrong.
Floyd “pick and choose” duckweather 😂
@soberanisfam1323 You mean Mr undefeated. Lol!
@@shakeezy I’m not talking about Rocky Marciano 😂😂😂 you and I and talking about Floyd “pick and choose” duckweather 😂😂😂
@soberanisfam1323 You goofy.

Love these vlogs, hate the fact no one from probox responds, not even to select comments. They put on a show, then leave it for the viewers to comment by themselves while probox staff just leaves the room. Feels like very opinionated roundtable stupidity with too much biases.
Ennis is a hype job. He not beating anyone at 154 division.
Boots knocks out Virgil ortiz....he arguably lost his last dight..
So you are saying boots would be better with a bigger and better name but he can't get rid off a bam? What are you saying 😂
Boots’ shine is starting to fall
Thing is boots isn't gonna fare any better against the bigger, stronger dudes at 154 in that they'll push him around & pummel him, he should take a tuneup to get weight acclimated before going in there with ortiz. Ortiz will come after boots & bully him I see boots retreating from vergils pressure.
Can somebody answer why is most people making excuses for boots about weight and all the experts are saying he must improve or he gonna get killed at 154
Boots beats everyone at 154 ,the one road block is Crawford
Virgil’s gonna stop him if something doesn’t change
Virgil can’t make 147 either. Boots needs to move up and Virgil needs to learn how to not get hit cause he’s just trading shots out there
You gotta be a dizzy bop for saying that. 😅
@@kylechristian6902 who said anything about 47. Virgil gets hit less than boots
@@DXMaster-xs4ksno he doesn’t lol
@ Karen landed 45% in the 11th and 54% in the 12th Boots is lucky he ain’t crackin like that 🤷🏾♂️
He should just master his body at 147, Listen, not every boxer you fight can be knocked out. Every fight demands a plan. If you go according to a plan that handicaps you, is to your own disadvantage. Stay knowledgeable enough to see what your opponent is doing and beat them to their game plan. That's what we call being an elite fighter. May weather learnt it and it worked, we already have a blue print of what is possible. What of if just one Punch of Karen knocked him down. Good fighters stays calm when delivering their best. Maison got dropped twice when he was comfortable delivering some combos. Ennis should just learn and correct his mistakes when fighting. Some fighters don't shell up when their opponent comes out brawling, they will punch with you. He should learn from Timzus mistake. My opinion.
I don't think it's better to wait until you face hard opposition. Boxing involves a lot of muscle memory, why get into bad habits. We all saw what happened to H20 Sylve.
Crawford didn't look good against his last opponent the same way and shawn porter hit him A LOT so much so that if he didn't stop porter he would've lost FACTS so to just jump and say boots isn't ready for him is ridiculous they are boxers they need to box.
Crawford came out on another level , he avoided about two three punches from Porter and nailed him down .
Ortiz has been protected his whole career and Boots would end his protected career. Boots fought the wrong fight constantly instructed by his father to get him out of there. So because he kept looking for the KO and had no respect for his opponents power he looked bad. He would not fight Ortiz that way and yes he can be better defensively. If Boots chooses to boxing his opponents he is very very difficult to beat for anyone in the game. I only really see Crawford having an edge over him based on experience at a higher level.
Yall never seen boots bruised but he gets hit a lot 😂
