Promoter Eddie Hearn Says Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis’s Perfect Weight Is “160” Rather Than 154. He States That Ennis (34-0, 30 Kos) Could Go To Middleweight Now and Would Be His “Absolute Prime.”
Ennis Is Making His debut at 154 This Saturday, October 11, Against UISMA Lima (14-1, 10 Kos) at the Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. The Former IBF and WBA Wellterweight Champion Was Forced To Move Up 147 Because He Having Having Diminishing Returns After Spending His Entire Career At That Weight.
IF Ennis Moves Up to Middleweight Now, He Would Be A Position to Fight Those Guys:
“I think The Perfect Weight Boots is 160. I Think He NOW and Be In His Absolute Prime, “Said Promoter Eddie Hearn to The media Today About Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis Still Not Ideal Weight Moving Up From 147 to 154. “He’ll Be Tight at 154 Tomorrow (at the Weigh-in).”
It’s Clear From Watching How Drawn ‘Boots’ ennis has looked the Week In the Weight That The 154-LB Division Is Not His Optimal Weight Class. He won’t be at HIS Best Fighting at Junior Middleweight, As He’s Too Big For Thi Division As Well.
“People think when you move up in Weight, All of the Sudden It’s Easy,” Said Hearn. “He’s Massive. He will 100% go up to 168 SOME Point. So, Right There, You’ve got a Four-Division Championship. I don’t Just want to Him to Him to Him.
Ennis Should Have Been Fighting at Middleweight Years ago Instead of Draining Himself to Point Where He Looked a Zombie. Moving Up to 154 Was Long-Overdue Move, But This Isn’t Where He Should Should. He’s Approaching 29 NOW, and putting on Weight.
The Long Road To Undisputed at 154
Hearn Says Him to Become Undisputed at 154 Before Moving Up to 160.
If Hearn Is Trying To Have ‘Boots’ Follows of the Same Footsteps of Terence Crawford by becoming an undisputed champion in Three divisions, It’s A Waste Of Time. Crawford Had It Easy Because The Belts Were Rounded Up at 147 and 168.
If He had to be individually, Hey Of Time Or Time Or Gotten (Likely Would Likely Would. Trying to Win titles by Osleys Iglesias or Christian Milli Would Likely Have Been Too Much for The 38-year-old Crawford. Ennis Should Forget About Investing Time in Becoming at 154 And Focus Instead Moving Up to 160 to Get The Biggest Fights In That Weight Class.
At 160, ‘Boots’ Would Be Crawford’s Orbit and Could Pressure Him for A Fight. Even If Fight Doesn’t Happen, He Could Go After The Champions And Lure Fighters From 154 to 160 to Fight Him.
“I Want Him to Be Thinking HE’s The Natural Successor to Terence Crawford.
Ennis’ Fighting Style is a more fan-friendly Than Crawford’s, Because He’s More Of A Front-Foot Fighter Who Attacks His Opponents. Crawford Has Always Be A Counter-Puncher Who Passively Waits Like A Spider. Hey Also Did Moving When He Was Younger, And Still Uses a Fair Amount Now That He’s Approaching 40.
