Maybe this will get Boots more fights
He didn't capitalize on his opportunity to KO ole boy.......
His corner is pissed, because each round he hangs around he can find an opportunity to really hurt Boots
I think Boots is fighting this way because dude is not hurting him and he is anxious for the knockout...but I think its bad defensive discipline...dangerous to think you just gonna turn it on when you face a hard puncher...and he is so anxious for the KO, no jabs at all
I think Karin is a good fighter but Boots suppose to look better than this...Ukraine got the fighters man

His corner has been saying since the 5th, "get this over with."
But Boots hadn't been able to set up combos and get Karen hurt again......
Karen keeps holding so Boots is out of rhythm and sync.......
Also, Boots look tired...standing in the corner was a mistake...once you start standing, you can't sit down...but then you can't get the right rest
Watching youtube and some are saying Boots may finally be too big for 147...they wondering about the weight
He got hit way too much man

Right, boots will definitely get knockout by those other fighter who have power in their punches.
Yeah, he needs to move up...its time...lots of killers at 154...and he will get fights
I get why he tries so hard for the KO...that brings the hype and the money...but lets get the defensive discipline up
People either always lose or look shaky once they go to Eddie Hearn for some reason LOL
Can't get hit flush that much against Ortiz

Hell, Bud's next fight is at 154
Depending on how that goes...
Boots may have to see him
Boots did take a lot of shots tonight.
Finally showed some vulnerability, but that's the fight game.
He showed he's got a really good chin.
Boots vs Virgil is gonna be epic.
They might break the compubox record for punches thrown.

I think if he fights that kind of fight with Virgil he would be playing right into Ortiz hands
Fortunately he doesn't have to fight that way to win (I hope)...was a little disappointed that there didn't seem to be an adjustment last night...for how great I think Boots could potentially be, there should have been an adjustment...like a plan B
Can't take nobody from Ukraine light either

Title days are over. Exhibition fighter now.
Great money in it no doubt with the right matchups.
People still wanna see him and AJ. They should have done it when the stakes were highest.
I don't think AJ took him seriously at the time, and there wasn't quite the same money in it as AJ's other offers.
Or maybe AJ did "fear" that right hand......
The potential NOW for either of them to be destroyed is there now.
I'd still lean Wilder's way because even though slower he's still quicker to the draw than AJ. And AJ just goes to shit if he gets blitzed early.
Wilder doesn't wanna get clocked anymore though judging by his fight with Zhang. I'd like to see who gets hit first in that one and how they react.

Hope he gets rid of his trainer
James Toney and that Philly Shell/shoulder roll was vicious... a rope a dope without taking unnecessary punches
Nunn gassed out. He was giving Toney the business until he got tired. Nunn was a huge middleweight who stayed at 160 one fight too long.
Nunn was totally in control until the 3rd maybe 4th round...... things started taking a turn in the 4th. That's when he started "running" and using his feet more. Once he did that his volume of punches started going down......and he was in for a long fight.
Just off eyesight, in rds 1-4 if Nunn threw 3-4 punches he was hitting Toney at least 2 times, sometimes he hit Toney with all 3-4.
Then in rds 5-8th it looked like he was throwing 2-3 punches and hitting him once maybe twice....
While not a big difference, Toney started to take advantage. Toney won most rounds between 6-10, to me. (Out of those 5, I gave him 4 of them, but he was still down bad in the cards)
I think it was rd 8 or 9 where Nunn stunned Toney, but he couldn't capitalize on the moment and hit him with a flurry of punches......
In rds 9-11 there were times Nunn threw 5-6 punches and connected 0 times, then other times his punches landed on the shoulder and did no real damage to Toney.
The decrease in punches, the lack of endurance/ stamina and the culmination of all those rounds of Toney landing on the body set up the KnockDown and eventual TKO in the 11th....
Here's a link in case you want to watch the whole thing, I did on 1.5/1.75 speed
I'll watch, it's been a long time since I've seen that fight but from what I remember I thought Nunn was in control for most of the fight.
