No. 1 in the IBF rankings, American welterweight prospect Jaron Ennis (29-0, 27 KOs) reacted to the news about the failure of the fight for the title of absolute division champion between the holders of all his belts compatriots Errol Spence (28-0, 22 KOs) and Terence Crawford ( 38-0, 29 KOs).
Ennis demands from IBF to immediately sanction his fight with Spence. The problem is that the unified champion has mandatory contenders for other versions: Emantas Stanyonis from Lithuania from the WBA and American Keith Thurman from the WBC.
It is also possible that Spence will completely abandon all belts and rise in weight – it is very difficult for him to weight cut up to 66.7 kg.
The day before yesterday, Terence named his opponent. It has a date and a place. Rumor has it that Crawford will receive an astronomical fee for this fight. Spence’s prospective rival was also announced yesterday. And he’s cooler than Thurman.
