The match promoter Eddie Hearn says Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis is the man who will withdraw Terence Crawford from his throne as the pound-for-pound king in the sport.
Boots Ennis Tipped to Discover the Old King
To do this, Hearn will have to move fast Ennis (34-0, 30 COs) because 38-year-old Crawford is fast at the end of his career and is already close to a remnant. Eddie talks about Ennis, 28, who quickly captured all four belts at 154 to become the undisputed champion and then move to 160.
Crawford will have disappeared for a long time by the time ‘Boots’ follows on Hearn’s vision. In an ideal scenario, Ennis was able to detect four belts at 154 by the end of 2026 and then move to 160 to fetch who keeps the belts in that dead, barren, lifeless weight class.
Sharks will end Bud’s run overnight
Crawford will no longer exist in the sport, without Turki Alalshikh keeping him in it by giving him great pay days and defeatable opposition. If Turki gives the difficult love by insisting that he fight against the Sharks to earn his $ 50 million pay days, he could fall apart almost immediately.
‘I think this man (Ennis) is going through this section (154), moving to 160 and being a three -weight world champion. I think he is the man replacing Terence Crawford. I think he’s so good, ”Eddie Hearn said Ring magazine About Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis is the man to replace the outdated Crawford.
Benavidez deserves the call
Ennis looks good enough to replace Crawford now. If Turki was fighting his money behind “Boots” against Canelo Alvarez on September 13, he would probably have won that battle and he would now. Be 1 pound-by-pound fighter.
The fact that Crawford was given the opportunity rather than Ennis or David Banavidez shows that it’s more about To love by your employer. Crawford got the fight against Canelo who should have been to Benavidez. The ‘Mexican monster’ earned the fight against Canelo.
I do not believe that even if Crawford was young, he can hold on to a talent such as David Benavidez, Christian Mbilli, Osleys Iglesias, Dmitri Bivol or Lester Martinez. But now that he is 38, he can’t be submitted to the guys and expects him to come out with a victory.
Turki’s millions delayed the inevitable
As such, the only way I see Crawford that is long enough for “boots” Ennis to face him is if Turki Alalshikh allows him to choose his opponents by hand and pay him mega millions. If Crawford is forced to run the Gauntlet with the above peak predators, he will not go through it.
‘After this battle, we want ortiz. We want Murtazaliev. We want fundora. He (‘Boots’ Ennis) will beat them all. After that (Uisma) Lima battle, someone can manage, be it Crawford, Ortiz, Fundora or Murtazaliev. ‘ I can’t see anyone beating him, ‘Hearn said about Ennis.
