Comments Thread For: Jaron Ennis Aims For Statement: I Will Be a World Champion in 2021!

Spence has the PPV numbers to make that fight attractive for Pacquiao, though.

Crawford doesn't. Which is why in the meantime he should be fighting one of the PBC fighters that are willing and available to go across the street.

He should because Spence keeps ducking him.

Spence has said it has to be a 60-40 purse split in his favor.

Crawford won't accept that even though it's more than justified.

Lets just wait, we know they trying to do the May vs Pac way.

Haymon has given the go ahead for Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, Yordenis Ugas, and Keith Thurman to try to reach deals with Crawford.

Why wouldn't he do that for Ennis?

In short, there's no money in it. There is more money in Spence vs Crawford and that never happened. Rumor is that Spence will go to 154 in 2021. Assuming that is the case, Ennis will step in as the next 147 money maker. It simply doesn't make financial sense to risk a young potential star before he becomes a financial attraction.

It's always about money.

I'm not buying the Boots hype yet, he looks good against crap opposition but who doesn't? I'll reserve judgement on him until he finally steps up, which takes these younger guys eons now. Getting close to 30 fights and the only recognizable name on his resume is washed up journeyman Abreu.
