“Boots is a great fighter, I enjoyed watching the fight,” Lubin told The Ring. “He got rid of that dude in just one round, which is impressive, but that dude wasn’t [expletive].

However, Lubin pointed out if Ennis truly wanted to fight a big-name opponent, he could have marched right into a fight of significance from the start of his junior middleweight journey.

“Boots after the fight, he had a lot to say about the whole division,” Lubin said. “He wanna fight this person, he wanna fight that person, he wanna fight Bakhram [Murtazaliev], he wanna fight [Sebastian] Fundora, he wanna fight Vergil, he wanna fight me, he wanna fight [Jermell] Charlo. But why the [expletive] did you just fight Lima then? Come out the gate fighting one of these dudes. That would’ve been more respectable.”
