Coming off a not-impressive win, although for sure the winner, you’ll suppose one of many champs can be prepared now. Ennis’ promoter, Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing, is probably the busiest promoter on this planet. It has been rumored supplied tremendous welterweight Vergil Ortiz, Jr., 22-0, 21 stoppages a battle. “We have been by no means supplied this, mentioned Bozy Ennis. Ortiz is scheduled for February twenty second to satisfy Israil Madrimov, 10-1-1, with 7 stoppages of Uzbekistan and California, who’s coming from a detailed loss to Terence Crawford.

Additionally, WBC champ Brian ‘The Murderer ll’ Norman, Jr., 26-0 with 20 stoppages of Georgia, and WBC Interim champ Mario ‘El Azteca’ Barrios, 29-2-1 with 13 stoppages of Texas.
The No. 3 IBF welter (No. 1 and a couple of vacant) Jin Sasaki, 18-1-1 with 17 stoppages of Japan, is scheduled January twenty fourth defend his WBO Asia Pacific and Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation titles towards Shoki ‘ELPV’ Sakai, 29-14-3 with 15 stoppages of Japan.
If Ennis strikes up in weight, he might face tremendous welter WBO champ Sebastian ‘The Towering Inferno’ Fundora, 21-1-1 with 13 stoppages of California. “He’s an inside fighter, although his peak is 6’05, and that’s the reason he obtained beat, mentioned Bozy Ennis.”
Including, “his sister can actually battle.” IBF champ Bakhram Murtazaliev, 23-0 with 17 stoppages of Russia and California, and former 2-division WBA Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford, 41-0 with 31 stoppages of Nebraska. None have a battle scheduled. At age 37, Crawford is in search of one huge payday earlier than retiring, and Alvarez could make that occur.
