TIM BRADLEY: “BOOTS WANTS THAT A** WHOOPING!” COMPARES TERENCE CRAWFORD FIGHT TO CANELO & BENAVIDEZ

International Boxing Hall of Famer and the 2023 Broadcaster of the Year, ESPN's Tim Bradley, breaks down Jaron "Boots" Ennis pursuit of pound-for-pound great Terence "Bud" Crawford and compares it to David Benavidez's pursuit of the legendary Canelo Alvarez.
Bradley also predicts Crawford's upcoming fight with Israil Madrimov, August 3rd in Los Angeles for the WBA super welterweight world title.
Interview by Sean Zittel.

They offered boots the fight and his team said they were loyal to showtime. Buds team tried to make it happen. Boots never denied that when bud put it out there. Another difference is, bud is moving up in weight, he’s not fighting guys in lower weight classes than him like Canelo is doing to avoid David. Isn’t the same. If bud was still fighting at 147 & not fighting him, that would be avoiding him.

[@teamgill1]

Where was Tim when boots left the wbo where he could have fought bud since ortiz the number 1 guy declined the fight twice. When they called team boots to make a fight and his father said no!!!! This is keeping it real…these things happened. Also what has boot done to make the fight? Not in the ring but outside of the ring? Have they called to discuss a fight? No…showtime never called to discuss a fight. Maybe Tim is punch drunk because what is left after becoming undisputed? How does bud winning another if belt at 147 help his legacy? Here is how dumb Tim sounds…bud fighting for a title in his 4th weight class means more to his legacy than fighting another guy at 147…i do not remember anyone at 140 saying after he won undisputed that he has unfinished business at 140…why do you think boots is the best? Because he looked great against guys he was supposed to look great against? You said you’re a fan of the sport so in order to be called the best that means you had to beat some of the best fighters to become that right? Here is the thing that Tim and some of these errolsexuals turned boots fan tend to skip over. Bud said put the money up and lets fight. Let me tell you something you should already know. Dazn is in no rush to put boots in there with bud. If so they would of called to discuss working on a deal for a fight later….also he loses to bud then what will dazn do? Mean machine said he would of stepped in on short notice but they picked bud’s left overs. Stop the cap and the clout chasing..boots sound like teo…fight cherries but swear they want to fight bud smh

I do not like the pretending like they did not turn down a fight. left the wbo when ortiz turned down the fight twice...personally i think team boots was sloopy business decision to leave to pick up that ibf belt because to the real fans the ones who pay attention this looks like clout chasing...he called you turned down the fight then turn around and say he is ducking you lol. make it make sense

When you say stuff like that it exposes how little you know the sport. If it's not the handful of fighters you know about, you think they aren't good opponents. Boxing is global and international. When you don't know a name you should look up their accomplishments in the amateurs and pros and actually watch their previous fights before you judge whether or not they're world class.

For years Bud said that after he beats Spence and gets Undisputed he was moving up (and that's what he did). Bud is a champion, it ain't his job to accommodate a guy who had opportunities to fight him already. He shouldn't alter his career goals to please Boots or anybody else.

It has to be advantageous to Bud because he’s at the end of his career and he’s trying to make the most money cuz he only has three fights left! Boots ain’t a household name and I don’t see it being a BIG draw! 🤷‍♂️ But offer Bud 20 milli he’ll fight him, and then when they do fight expect him to knock Boots out and turn him into puss and boots 👢.

Bud ducking boots 💯

[@dankk_edibles]

What does Bud gain?

[@Trentberkeley86]

@@dankk_edibles what does Canelo gain from fighting Bud? LIs Madrimov a bigger name than boots? Where do you rank boots atm because he’s certainly a more dangerous opponent than Errol Spence is/was.’? The point is Boots is the number 1 ranked opponent at that weight class just like Benavidez is to Canelo , yet Bud’s fan girls don’t want to call him out for ducking boots but are quick to call out Canelo for avoiding Benavides, that’s the argument.

[@dankk_edibles]

@@Trentberkeley86 whoever wins that fight is truly the face of boxing. Fighting Boots does nothing, and it's a much smaller payday for Bud. Make it make sense.

[@Trentberkeley86]

@@dankk_edibles Canelo is the face of boxing because he simply draws more and nothing is going to change that. How is fighting the top ranked contender like boots not make sense? Nothing makes more sense than that, that’s how it’s supposed to be. That’s the purpose of weight classes and the ranking system. How does bud fighting Canelo make any sense when he’s proven nothing at middleweight? Make it make sense

[@dankk_edibles]

@Trentberkeley86 your statement is too much theory. Canelo is flat footed and boxes one dimensional. He would have probably with Bud. He's too stiff

[@jamestoney7571]

He wasn’t the same Crawford at 154. People act like they didn’t just see that

[@S48432]

I agree bro the only reason Bud wants to fight Canelo is because he feels like he can beat him and other fighters gave the recipe to beat him Boots is a young unbeaten thoroughbred who’s hungry and Crawford don’t want any parts of him cuz he was Boots at one point he knows how dangerous a young hungry fighter is 💯

[@smokesmitty1]

Stop reaching

[@smokesmitty1]

So does boots beat nelo

[@ayezoe8157]

Boots fight Spence first that would set up the Crawford fight

[@silence3916]

Nah, Boots need to fight Ortiz, Danny Garcia, Keith Thurman, Stanionis first..

[@ChassyT25]

The interviewer is right Canelo vs Crawford is the biggest fight in boxing! 🥊 a lot of people still domt know who Boots is…he’s still establishing himself

[@nelsontucker756]

Let boots fight a couple champion or two before he just go all the way to Crawford. He don’t get to jump line Crawford didn’t

[@remyogun8270]

Scary duck talk

[@RT-hh3vl]

well said, Bud is sooo patient, hos opponents think 'hey, this is not so bad' and then suddenly, when you think you are getting points, boom... btw Bud does not ever stand still in front of his opponent like Madrinov's last opponent did... his is in for huge shock

[@prophe.c.consciousparty1040]

Yall tripping Bud already fkn offered the young bull a fight and they back out being loyal to showtime got dayum

bullshit....If he was serious he'd be open to it....not hiding behind the sorry ass excuse

On another note, NOONE said Bud name till Spence called him out after Ugas 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@CharlesD_The_cHin_Checkerz]

Bud was calling Spence out since 2018 .. he had no choice but to fight Bud if he wanted undisputed

[@abudujana13]

Thanks for the video, Sean

[@omarjordan6568]

Boots was chasing Spence not Bud he just started calling bud out about a year ago! Coulda got that smoke at 147 but he went another route.

[@robertjames5317]

[@itzsalah93]

I didnt realize Crawford had 100% KO rate at welterweight I also didn’t know Eubank trainer was Bomac damn !!

[@shaamlowery2632]

As a bud Fan Tim speaking facts

[@Parlay_way_Jay]

Boots gonna have to run up one time Therman or catch Errol after this rematch with Bud, he’s just not gonna get the Bud fight by campaign, boots needs more names under his belt 😤

[@budgonstopCANELO]

The only people who doesn’t want to see Crawford fight Canelo is Canelo fans if they thought Canelo could win they would definitely want him to knockout Crawford, but they’re terrified of Bud smoking him 💪🏾nobody had a problem with Charlo fighting him Neither did Canelo😂😂😂

[@oldheadradio7290]

This fight Crawford at 154, is going to tell the people a lot. If he goes in there and dominate this dude, and others there is no question💯

[@OG.Bobby.Johnson.412]

I appreciate this convo right here. Bud has consistently said if someone puts the money up he will fight Boots and that's a match-up i would love to see. Hopefully Boots will challenge for the IBF @ 154 to give him more leverage. At the same time Sean has a point when he said the Canelo v. Crawford would determine truly whose era this is but it'll all be on if Bud can carry the weight while keeping his speed & reflexes and take the punches. I'm here for all that smoke coming Bud's way because I want to know if he's on that Mt. Olympus of boxing

[@Knowcaptv]

Boots is seeking Greatness by chasing Crawford and Bud is seeking Greatness by chasing Canelo..This isn’t a Double-Standard, this is 2 fighters wanting to fight the best to be the best..In saying that, Bud should give Boots the fight to prove that this is truly the Terrance Crawford era!

[@lashaunmccall8168]

Boots is going to get knocked out if he gets in the ring with Bud.

[@Knowcaptv]

@@lashaunmccall8168 Maybe so but he's deserving of a shot. Its boxing, anything can happen!

[@user-vf5bv6vo4b]

@@lashaunmccall8168 Man, Boots already know. Look at his last fight he struggled bruh. Bud was knocking out EVERYTHING at welterweight bro! Edit: Bro is a figure of speech your a woman right? Don’t want to disrespect you..

[@VillainArch22]

Boots vs Bud is all hype man. Crawford is a dawg in the ring and doesn't run from contact. Boots has the tools and the flash but he has openings in his game. Crawford fought his way up & waited for his turn. Boots has to fight the guys in front of him. He is not even a champion yet in 147. Take care of 147 & move up. And I'm not convinced as these fans in the comments. Russell beat him in the Olympics and walked straight through that style and put hands on that boy.

[@goodkiller7]

Nah. I agree on Tim but not on Boots. Benavidez is an over due mandatory to Canelo unlike Boots he not mandatory. Boots need to move up to 154 and be mandatory and only then we can have that conversation.

[@Supersupremegang]

Why does Boots have to move to another division when they couldn’t fought at 147?

[@deeyoung8650]

@@Supersupremegangbecause he accomplished what he set out for. But Turki is willing to make that fight so we prolly get it. It’ll be at 54

[@trublu6in]

Why boots dont move up to 154 then get the ibf strap. Bud will have to see him

[@EWWWYOURFAC3]

Tim right on this one ! Crawford stops the Philly bum slayer hype job 💯

[@DanteBoyd-iy3ge]

I don't care what you saying Crawford is superior boxer Crawford has more tools in his belt and if Crawford stay on the outside and let Canada walk into all those punches he's going to beat him and that's exactly what will happen

[@harvydent7154]

Boots only talks Crawford when the camera is on. Paperwork does the talking in Boxing. Crawford doesn't need Boots, Boots NEEDS Crawford. Team Boots ducked Crawford before he fought his mandatory David Avanesyan.

[@ThomasAmal]

Tim stop, Boots had a opportunity to force the Crawford fight but preferred supposed easier route, Spence. Crawford and Boots are great fighters, I just don't think boots is ready yet

[@anthonyortiz5010]

That’s one thing we agree on n boots is another weight bully n u could tell but they think is skills n how if ur bigger or rehydrate to I don’t know we’ll ur confidence boosts you because they can’t hurt u unless u get caught on the button

[@darrylwilliams4301]

Boots needs to be patient, and stay active. There's levels to this game. Ask Ryan Garcia after he fought Tank. For Ennis to call out Bud as if Bud is running from him is laughable. Bud is a seasoned veteran chasing GREATNESS. Boots needs to stay in his lane.

[@phillyoldhead.2157]

Bud us a old ass boxer chasing Canelo to get that bread to cash out he knows when Boots beat that ass big money fights are over for him

[@yanassi]

Bradley is right, we deserve to see bud vs boots, but really, boots doesn’t deserve bud. Boots willing to go to 154? Boots could’ve just like boots could’ve taken bud when he was mandatory. Boots knows bud wants undisputed at 154, boots could get a jump on it by challenging a belt at 154, Murtazaliev. Win and he’s in bud’s way to 154 undisputed. But boots won’t leave 147! There’s nothing at 147 for bud, except crazy money that boots doesn’t bring. Bradley can’t say canelo doesn’t make financial sense and then say boots does.

[@timothystricklin8761]

They must have forgot " we gonna be loyal to Showtime " 😂😂

[@JimmerDJ]

Bud toyed with Spence to prove a point but when he starts catching Madrimov he ain’t gonna fuck about. Every fighter Bud faces got openings that he sees and with his instincts and skills he just finds the spots and angles. Bud is so good at keeping calm and setting traps and he’s so quick with the counters. He just controls the fight and when he starts catching people they are hesitant to throw back as his instincts are so good and he’ll catch them every time

[@rawrealfightforum3032]

Spence and Bud froze the whole welterweight division for 4 to 5 years got close then Bud pull out to fight David Avanesian in which Boots on the sideline waiting bcuz he's the mandatory so he has to fight done stay busy fights until they fought but Boots didn't wanna take a fight or miss his shot at the tittle even though he got one now he wanted to take it from the champion no email champion or vacant tittle but it is what it is

[@nightryder16]
