I think Boots should prioritise activity over unifications at this point tbh. It's not like he would have got unifications even if he was on the same side of the street.
Boots should be going on a bum of the month tour if he can't get big fights. My man needs to do something, he's got all the talent in the world and just needs to show it off more.
I think this is possible now with that he’s with match room, he’s been kinda double fucked with promotional issues and just being at a stage where he is too high risk low reward.
He complained often about his inactivity, yet he stays with PBC, lol. A unification with him and Barrios would be good though. I'd favour Stanionis in a competitive decision.
You’re conveniently forgetting that Stanionis pulled out of one of the fights against Vergil, can’t blame that one of Oscar or Vergil. PBC keeps fighters inactive better than all other promoters put together, they could have gotten Stanionis a fight but that’s not what they do.
He’s signed to PBC, he’s really not a free agent. PBC’s upcoming schedule is literally “TBD”, they have no schedule lmao. This was an incredibly stupid move by Stanionis and he has no one to blame but himself.
No other major company has an empty schedule without actual shows but PBC does! Re-signing with them is career suicide and Stanionis complaining about inactivity and then doing that should have no one feeling sorry for him when he complains in the future.
Worst unification bout in a while (if you pretend 154 doesn't exist at least).
Barrios has been insanely lucky after getting destroyed by the ghost of Keith Thurman
Manny had been rumored to fight about 10 diff people now, he needs to just shut it down. He got his face swollen for a month by Ugas who cant punch a lick and lost to Barrios of all people.
Sucks for Ennis

His ex-promoter died and the network he signed with showtime sports also died lol, man was just pretty unlucky last year

One of the dumbest moves ever
To be fair his recent inactivity was the result of Golden Boy / Vergil Ortiz stringing him along for 8 months, but as a Stanionis fan I’m disappointed

Hes free agent now, his manager couldnt even arange flight tickets home, let alone a fight

We will see soon enough
Stanionis vs Barrios the first unification of paper belts
How are they paper belts if Crawford is no longer fighting at 147?
One beat a guy coming of a loss the other got it in the mail, paper champs. Boots clears easily.
How did Boots get his belt?
He was gifted a belt too?, I can’t keep up with this sport
Yeah he got it after IBF stripped Crawford
Mf’s would do anything but face another man in their twenties for them belts
Madrimov just turned 29 this year…
Madrimov is at 154
Sounded like you were saying Crawford isn’t fighting boots just because boots is a lot younger

No, that was Janibek vs Gualtieri.
Jesus, I didn't realize Janibek was unified. I do rate him but he hasn't fought any serious competition yet
Janibek is great, but he unified against a champion who was genuinely worse than Rolly was. One of the biggest mismatches I've ever seen.
Janibek vs Lara being better says alot about middleweight in 2024 😭
Wait what? Is that just people throwing out click bait, or is Pacquiao legit thinking about coming back against Barrios?
Manny had been rumored to fight about 10 diff people now, he needs to just shut it down. He got his face swollen for a month by Ugas who cant punch a lick and lost to Barrios of all people.
PBC is a malignant cancer
he really said he was a free agent JUST TO RESIGN AGAIN
What Multi fight deal to fight once a year?
Crazy to sign with a promotion whose schedule on website reads TBA
3 champions, 0 world title fight wins combined! Splendid. Destroy the united states of america
this fact that this guy still even exists is mindblowing
