Crawford vs Jaron “He Has Everything” Roy Jones Jr Delivers Honest Verdict On Terence Crawford vs Jaron Ennis.

Jaron Ennis picked up the IBF Welterweight World Title when Terence Crawford decided to move up in weight and vacate. That hasn’t stopped the Philly native from wanting the fight.

‘Boots’ Ennis is now seen as the clear standout in the 147 ranks with the departure of Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. Coming off a successful defence of his belt by stopping David Avanesyan in five rounds, the 27-year-old has moved to 32-0.

Speaking to YSM Sports Media, multi-weight world champion and the best fighter of his era Roy Jones Jr said Ennis presents a ‘very difficult’ challenge to the two-time undisputed champ.

“I don’t now yet cause we seen Boots in against a guy that has touched him enough to really test his chin, so that’s the only thing we don’t know about him yet. We don’t know if he can take a real punch.

As far as skills go, he got everything. That fight could be very difficult cause he has everything. When a guy as talented with the skill-level that Boots has, anything can happen. But, don’t get me wrong, Bud has the skill level too. Great fight.”

Despite now having the chance to go on and unify the welterweight titles as ‘Bud’ did before him, ‘Boots’ has expressed an interest in moving up to 154 to make the fight happen.

With the backing of Riyadh Season’s Turki Alalshikh, it suddenly becomes quite possible. First up, Crawford has his first challenge in that division against WBA Champion Israil Madrimov. Should he win, he’s still looking away from Ennis and towards Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez.
