Jaron Ennis continues to make a case for a fight with Terence Crawford, most recently by stopping David Avanesyan one round quicker than the pound-for-pound star could.
‘Boots’ was defending his IBF Welterweight World title in that scrap, gained when ‘Bud’ Crawford decided to move up in weight and challenge super-welterweight champ Israil Madrimov on August 3.
Despite those plans, Ennis keeps calling the former four-belt 147 titlist out.
Speaking on Pro Box TV, Hall of Fame fighter turned analyst Tim Bradley praised him for wanting ‘all the smoke’ with Crawford and said the former undisputed champion’s team was ‘making excuses,’
Bradley is firmly in the camp that Ennis deserves the shot, completely disagreeing with anyone who says it’s too early in the career of 27-year-old from Philly.
Bradley ended his analysis by saying without doubt that Crawford should be facing Ennis. Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh agrees, saying he would like to make the fight at 154 if ‘Boots’ is willing to move up.
