In the post-fight press conference, Hearn revealed: “PBC has already sent me a message and said, could we step aside (Shakhram) Giyasov and go straight to Stanionis (vs Boots)? They will look at this performance and assess their chances.”

The Matchroom Sport chairman continued: “Oscar De La Hoya tweeted we are ready for Vergil Ortiz vs Boots. I like it. But what they don’t understand is that when Boots fights these guys, it’s all about making it entertaining. The first fight was a crapshoot. I actually thought it was a good fight tonight. And by the way, I also think this guy (Chukhadzhian) beats most 147-pounders.”
