Fans see the mismatch

López (22-1, 13 kos) seems concerned about the criticism that the potential struggle receives from the fans, who see it as a mismatch and a simple coup.

With the huge advantage of Ennis size, it is a struggle with little chance of being competitive. People would prefer to see the boots pass to 154 and assume Vergil Ortiz Jr., Sebastian Fundora or Bakhram Murtazaliev next to it.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn favors the struggle of Boots with Theophimo, considering it as “winning”. He says they have not received any offer from Turki Alshikh for the fight, but he “speaks”. However, Hearn says if Ennis has trouble getting weight for the 147 lb division, then “It can happen at 154.,

Hearn seems to realize that it will take Ennis too long to achieve his goal of becoming the undisputed champion. The money that Hearn will have to offer the heavy weight Wbo champion, Brian Norman Jr., will probably be more than willing to pay. And even if this struggle, getting the WBC champion Mario Barrios to accept a fight against the boots can be impossible.

Ennis hopes that Barrios agrees to fight him finally? I doubt it. Mario has a fight against Manny Pacquiao on July 19. After that, the popular fighters Conor Benn, Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney look towards their direction. The WBC belt is the bait of Barrios fish to attract those fighters. Will not leave your boots for $ 2 million when you can make a considerable movement fighting these boys.

There are still no turki offers

“It’s not really any offer, but let’s talk about it,” said promoter Eddie Hearn According to When asked if he has received any offer from Turki Alralikh to fight between Jaron ‘boots’ ennis and teofimo Lopez. “I just think about the boots, it’s a case if he stays at 147. He really just wants to stay -to fight for more belts.”

Hearn wants López’s struggle, but it is questionable if Ennis will agree. He knows that he is just a money struggle and is similar to his two fights against Karen Chukhadzhian. Theophimo is a runner in fighting a good opposition and will not try to exchange with Ennis.

“Therefore, Teopimo’s struggle was not really an option, but we really like it because I think it is a struggle that wins. I think it is a high -level struggle and, if the money is good, I suggest it takes it. But if you do not feel that I can act at its best at 147, it can go to 154,” said Hearn.

They are playing mental games; Do not listen to them and accept the terms! #Boxing

I am a linear champion twice, and the heartbeat will make me a linear state and history three times. Come and find an easy job for you !!! @Jaronennis 🎱🥊
