Yeah, I do agree that Ennis is the real deal, although is just caught the tail end of the Crawford or Spence rivalry that's why his name is not inserted between the two. But if he is present or at least here when there is the hype between this two boxers, maybe we can see this 3 fighting each other.


Crawford and Spence shunned Ennis when both were still champions. Ennis's name never came out when Ennis was beating a lot of boxers; he virtually became a gatekeeper of these two, maybe because their respective promoters wanted to protect their records and reputations until their unification so the unification became a major success.

Now, it's Ennis's time to shine, and the boxing community will give him the respect he deserves. Let's see if Spence will challenge Ennis and try to regain the title.

Yes, his name was not in the discussions, during the reign of Spence and Crawford, they just beating other guys and Ennis was left because the potential money fight for the two. But now that it is done, we don't know if there will be a rematch between the two or moving up to the next weight class.

So that is a perfect opportunity for Ennis to take the limelight at 147 lbs, although he is still chasing either of the two, it might be good for him to just remain at 147 lbs and get the chance to unify the division and become undisputed.

Ennis is exciting to watch just as how much you expect a KO when Ortiz fights. Crawford vs Ennis is one of the most speculated fights in which Ennis might have a chance to flip Crawford. Ennis might even have a chance to defeat Vergil Ortiz, he only needs to develop his counter.

Though Crowley can absorb punches, I think this fight is an easy win for Ennis. Most likely by UD.


Ennis is not just hype; he is a real deal and a big threat to Crawford. I have a huge respect for Crawford, but a fight with Ennis is challenging since Crawford is moving up. The only challenges now are Ortiz, Spence, or Ryan Garcia, who has a big question mark if he is going to campaign in the welterweight division.

Now that Ennis is a champion the Welterweight is a division to watch. It's only a matter of time before we can have unification bouts because this division is loaded with boxers with good credentials.
I'm hoping to see an Ennis-Ortiz match hopefully this year.

If Ortiz is really healthy maybe he can fight Ennis. But there is also that Ortiz might go to 154 lbs as he have issues already making the 147 lbs. But still loaded though with Eimantas Stannionis and Mario Barrios as him and Terence Crawford are WBC champions, Barrios being the interim.

Crowley might have an undefeated record but he will still be a huge underdog. Ennis has had a lot of hype as the next king of welterweight, but thus far the big fights have eluded him. He is now working with Matchroom, who will look to keep him busy. He can start to build a resume by looking good against Crowley and perhaps he will eventually get noticed by the bigger names around his weight class.

Exactly, this could be a great fight for Ennis to showcase his talent and he had a lot of hype in his name, and they want to challenge or have been calling Crawford in the past. But first if he wanted to be noticed by Crawford, he needs to show something in this fight, and we can appreciate if he can win against his customer in Crowley.

And his target is really Crawford, obviously he is the other belt holder, but Crawford is moving up to 154 lbs. But who knows, if Ennis can make a eye catcher win, then Crawford can have a unification fight with him.

After Errol Spence, only Ennis and Ortiz could challenge Crawford in the welterweight division. Still, we are going to a new era in Welterweight after Crawford decided to leave the division, maybe because Crawford was running out of time. He wanted money and a legacy fight only the upper division can give him.

Ennis is not yet a money maker, and we all know when a boxer wins a huge fight, he will become picky to protect the legacy fight that he earned; Ennis is not a money maker and could give Crawford a hard fight, so if he prefers a well established named as his next opponent.

Ennis must have an impressive win to show people that he is the next big name and after this fight, he needs to fight Ortiz, Spence, or even Garcia to show that he is taking over the division.

You talking about Vergil Ortiz? I think he has moved to 154 lbs already and he is the mandatory to Israil Madrimov, and so not sure why Crawford got the first crack at Madrimov but it's obvious that this is because of boxing politics.

And that's why one reason why we didn't see Ennis vs Spence or Crawford at 147 lbs. And you are right, if Spence or Crawford are moving up in weight, then Ennis will be the new face of 147 lbs and could be unify other belts as well. But in any case that he will get a chance to fight either of that names, he will obviously the B-side and might not get the money he wants.


But it's not very sure if Heard will really match Crawford and Ennis though. This is not the case in the old boxing since they all want to see whose going to defeat who but in today's boxing, everything is monetization.

Thanks for this, I thought no one had open this thread and I'm thinking of opening it.
When I saw Ennis going to defend his title I did not hesitate to create an announcement here, it's about time that he gets a formal introduction here in Bitcointalk because he is both power and skill and will reign for a long time here in this division and he will give us more impressive fight, Ennis is jus so awesome and dominant
Here is a highlights of his fights Jaron Ennis (30-0) Highlights & Knockouts

Quote
Nevertheless this is a good fight, there's a lot of hype of Ennis recently, since he sign a contract with Matchroom and this is his first fight. Crowley is the mandatory for his IBF belt so yeah, this is going to be a great fight as Crowley as has pops as well in his punch.
Crowley may be good, but Ennis is far better the only fighters I can think of that can match Ennis firepower are Vergil Ortiz and Errol Spence I'm sure one or both of them  will have a chance to fight Ennis, and this makes the Welterweight a division to watch

Quote
But the fight is going to be held in Ennis hometown, so for sure there will be a lot of fans going to show support for him and he wants to have a great performance for them. Might not go to the judges though as Ennis might win in a knockout or if not, then totally dominated Crowley for a unanimous decision.
I'm sure Ennis will record the best fight or knockout of his career and Crowley even though a good contender will suffer a beating because Ennis will try to be impressive in front of his hometown.

It's unfortunate for boxing fans that Ennis became a champion without challenging Crawford. He is considered as the next big name in the welterweight and can give Crawford a hard time, but Crawford did not give him an opportunity and instead moved up for more significant challenges.

Based on my observation, the welterweight division will be challenging for Ennis; Vergil Ortiz and Errol Spence will challenge him; it is good that he became a champion finally, after waiting in line for a long time.

I very much agree, however, this might be a chance to create another history in boxing where Bud Crawford will do another move to unify the welterweight division by fighting the other king of welterweight. Before the fight of Crawford vs. Spence, I have always considered and argued that Crawford and Spence were the kings of their weight division. However, there was a 3rd king Boots Ennis. No one have known his name before except @Boafeng and @bisdak, who are the kings of boxing analysis in bitcointalk hehehe.

On creating legacy for Bud, Ennis will be a good opponent for him and the next will be Canelo. The promoters should promote Canelo vs. Crawford! This is my wish as a fan of boxing and it should be yours also.

Crawford says that he doesn't want to fight Ennis before, it's because according to him there is no money to be made. I mean he is also not a PPV star and it's obvious that his biggest purse is fighting Spence.

And so he move up in weight at 154 lbs and fights Madrimov, and most likely if he wins, the governing body should strip him of his 147 lbs status as champion if he doesn't want to fight at least his mandatory.

But for this fight, could be get busy fight for Ennis or just to defend his belt for this year.

You own the pen
Crowley is a good warm-up fight for Ennis since the guy is also a technical fighter but I think whoever has much more power on this one, will control the fight easily, doesn't really matter if you have no loss on your record when you have beaten mostly unknown opponents because when you are up against a champion like Ennis, your real boxing skill will be tested and you need to exert all effort in training to increase your chance to win because if you don't manage to give your opponent some surprises on your movements, then it will be an easy win for him. Let's see how an underdog like him will prepare for this big fight and if he can't get it right, he will surely suffer his first loss.

Boots vs Crawford was expected to have been the co-main event in Caneli vs Munguia but I guess it's up to Heard after Boots moved to Matchtroom. Boots vs Mario Barrios would have been a better fight but a title defense fight against Crowley is good to see whether they could match Barrios after.  

Crowley doesn't strike like a badass fighter compared to Boots but he does earn this shot. If he wins he will be the one fighting Barrios. They will not match Ennis to Spence until  Spence shows deterioration in skill level and they sure will not feed Boots to Ortiz.

After Crawford was stripped of his IBF title and elevated Jaron Ennis as a full-time champion he will now make his first title defence against the mandatory challenger and undefeated Cody Crowley.

Make no mistake about it: Crowley is a worthy challenger. He is tough, has power, and good movement inside the ring; Ennis will be tested here if he really deserves the title that was handed to him without a fight.

I expect a lot of fireworks here in this fight.

Jaron Ennis’ homecoming is officially on the schedule, as Matchroom confirmed today that “Boots” will defend his IBF welterweight title against mandatory challenger Cody Crowley on July 13th at Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center.
