Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford Stripped Of IBF Belt; Jaron Ennis Elevated To Full Titlist

[Gary Coleman]

This is one way to get the ball rolling on meaningful fights.

I wish they would stop giving away WT belts, they don't mean much today and this stuff just adds to that.

Boots won't trash the belt, I've seen it done, but the belt is trash. Earn it in the ring. Don't take it, then defend against hair stylists and cab drivers. Call out Stanionis for supremacy.

Will the PBC fanboys taunt Jaron Boots Ennis for being handed an email title like they did to Tzyu?

Yea, just like you MR fanboys taunted Devin Haney for his

[jikeccfc]

another garbage can e-mail champ the IBF belt is now a meaningless trinket odds on boots fights a pizza boy seller

[IronDanHamza]

What a joke.

Who's Ennis's mandatory then?

Crowley ranked the highest

[kiaba360]

The IBF is right here. Just like the WBO was right to strip Jermell and instate Tszyu as champ.

I'm not mad at this move either. However, the IBF was lenient with Spence when it came to mandatories. Other than Ocampo, what other mandatory did he ever face? Did we ever hear about an order to enforce Ennis as mandatory, and for both parties to work out a deal?

This decision implies that Spence/Crawford may be happening at 154, and maybe Ennis has recently gained some powerful friends.


Additionally, the IBF should also be stripping Jermell soon.

Lmfao exactly how everyone with common sense called it. Booty is now champion for having done nothing. Didn't even force the mandatory. He knew if he waited around he'd be handed a gift lmao bum

[JakeTheBoxer]

So we already know that Ennis is the next man to beat. i don`t think Crawford will fight at 147 ever again, he likely moves up, for Spence rematch or Charlo/Tszyu fight.
