‘BOOTS’ ENNIS EYES UNDISPUTED 147 BELTS ADDED TO IBF TITLE
Ennis (31-0, 28 KOs) wants to add the World Boxing Council (WBC) and World Boxing Association (WBA) belts to his International Boxing Federation (IBF) title.
However, PBC boss Al Haymon manages WBC interim champion Mario Barrios and WBA champion Eomantas Staniosis.
Haymon is aware Ennis can beat both of his wards in Barrios and Staniosis and put the spotlight on PBC rival Matchroom of Eddie Hearn.
Hearn’s Matchroom recently signed Ennis as part of a multi-fight deal.
ENNIS READY TO FACE ANYONE TO GET UNDISPUTED TITLE
Ennis is ready to face anyone regardless of Matchroom or PBC fighters to claim the undisputed welterweight king title.
“I’ll fight anybody. I don’t care who it is. I’m excited about collecting all of the belts,” Ennis told Matchroom Boxing on Wednesday.
Ennis wants to start his Matchroom deal soon after posting a 10th-round knockout win over Roiman Villa in July last year.
‘BOOTS’ CALLS OUT CRAWFORD FOR TITLE FIGHT
Ennis called out Conor Benn and Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) for a major title fight but Crawford may have other plans.
The 36-year-old Crawford may have been holding out for a possible major payday against Errol Spence (28-1, 22 KOs).
Ennis continues to taunt Crawford for dodging a fight against him.
“He (Crawford) said a few times he’s not looking my way; I’m not a big enough name. But there’s nobody else left for him to fight,” Ennis said.
“Either you fight me or you fight nobody,” he added.
