News Boots vs Stanionis April 12th DAZN from Atlantic City

I know people wanted this fight in the past, but that was years ago now. Stanionis hasn’t stopped anyone since stepping up in competition and went 12 with Dulorme, a guy Boots got rid of in a round. Not really the big fight I’m personally hoping for but maybe this will still satisfy his fanbase if it gets signed
 
This was an good fight a bit ago but interest in both guys has gone down.
 
Smart move. PBC needs more cards and Staniosis gets a big fight. Love the matchup. I'll be watching!
 
why are people complaining about this match?

stanionis is a belt holder, boots fighting him is better than squashing another mandatory. hopefully he gets to beat up barrios after, and then maybe by then norman will grow a pair and fight him too.

Fights since 2020’s began:

11/4/2020 Justin Deloach KO 9
12/16/2020 Janer Gonzalez KO 9
4/10/2021 Thomas Dulorme UD 12
8/7/2021 Luis Collazo NC-ND 4
4/6/2022 Radzhab Butaev SD 12
5/4/2024 Gabriel Maestre UD 12

Feel free to look at some of their records. Nothing really compelling there if you ask me.


Stanionis himself is only 15-0, with 9 KOs. It does raise concerns about his experience level and also 2022-2024 was a big gap. Was one tune up enough? Obvious power differential. That’s gonna be easy work for Boots imo.

Belts are pretty but the WW divisions title picture is worthless as far as signature wins go. I guess in the modern day some fans still care about belts when the politics involved rob the merit right out of even holding one half the time, but belt or not, as an opponent Stanionis was appealing several fights ago… Not now. Now it’s just show case, and the outcome will be expected. People who care about belts like they matter will have a great time though.

no matter how we slice it, the belt holders are the best ranked guys in the division. if not these guys, who else is there at 147 that's worth anything, then? benn?

i'm not saying it's the best fight that can be made in boxing, but there aren't many great fights at WW right now, and boots fighting other champions is better than boots fighting people we haven't even heard about.

i don't get the criticism. he's trying to fight the best the division has. why isn't that enough?
