Jaron 'Boots' Ennis wants to verify he isn't neglected in his negotiations for a mega-fight towards Teofimo Lopez in early 2025. Ennis (33-0, 29 KOs) felt blindsided by the thought of being supplied a combat towards Vergil. Ortiz Jr. on February 22.
The “out of the loop” excuse
This time, IBF welterweight champion Ennis (33-0, 29 KOs) should be concerned as a result of a match towards Teofimo (21-1, 13 KOs) will increase his slowly progressing profession.
Followers already don't imagine Boots' excuse for selecting to not combat Vergil, viewing it as a case of old school fearmongering. His final opponent, Karen Chukhadzhian, humiliated him on November 9, and Ortiz Jr. might do a lot worse to him. Ennis' excuse that he was being evaded his staff fell flat with followers, who noticed him as missing braveness after what occurred to him towards Karen.
Lopez is exhibiting he's not afraid to tackle the problem of transferring as much as 147. It appears a disgrace Ennis isn't prepared to do the identical by going as much as 154 for a combat to problem Vergil Jr. for his WBC interim title over His Excellency Turki. Alalshikh present in Riyadh on February 22.
Teofimo began his profession at light-weight and moved as much as 140 in 2022. Teo solely had 5 fights at gentle welterweight, and now he makes the bounce to 147 to problem Boots. It's spectacular.
The draw back to Ennis taking this combat towards Lopez is that if he will get crushed or has bother successful, his inventory will drop much more than it presently is after his choice to not enter the Vergil contest Jr. It might be onerous to see Boots come again from a loss or poor efficiency towards Teofimo and develop into a well-liked man.
Show the skeptics improper
Lance Pugmire experiences that Teofimo promoter Bob Arum is negotiating with Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn to schedule the combat for a joint DAZN/ESPN PPV occasion early subsequent yr. Now that Terence Crawford has moved up in weight, that is the most effective combat that may be made for Boots at 147.
We have now to attend and see if this combat succeeds as a result of it nonetheless must be negotiated. Teofimo might select to play on the A aspect with Ennis, which might damage all of the probabilities of the match. Boots considers himself the king of the 147-pound division, which he now could be by way of expertise. Conor Benn, Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia are extra in style than Ennis as a result of they’ve personalities.
Ennis needs to be a star, however he can't try this except he negotiates the Teofimo combat and takes on Haney, Ryan and Benn.
