Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis has big plans for 2023 as the undefeated contender moves things forward on January 7 and will be aiming for a major title fight soon after.<\/p>\n
Ennis (29-0, 27 KOs) has felt stuck in place for the past year or so. He believes a win over Karen Chukajian on the undercard of the Davis vs. Garcia PPV will change things, which will give him the interim IBF title, theoretically Errol Spence Jr.<\/p>\n
“I feel like Errol Spence Jr. is going to fight me,” Ennis said from Media Workout. think.”<\/p>\n
Spence (28-0, 22 KOs) is, of course, one of the two big fish at 147 pounds, along with Terrence “Bud” Crawford. Spence has retained the IBF title since defeating Kell He Brooke in 2017, adding the WBC and his WBA belts to his collection in the process. Crawford has a WBO title.<\/p>\n
The biggest fight at welterweight is still Spence vs. Crawford, and a lot. But if that fight simply doesn’t happen, it’s unlikely that too many people will be hesitant about Spence vs. Ennis.<\/p>\n
But for now, Boots focuses on 26-year-old Ukrainian Chukasian (21-1, 11 KOs).<\/p>\n
“I haven’t seen footage of the opponent, but my team is watching him,” Ennis said. “We have a game plan for what he’s doing well.”<\/p>\n
