Two of boxing\u2019s biggest stars appear to be on a collision course for a \u2018mega-fight\u2019 at some point in the future.<\/p>\n
After it was announced earlier this month that unified WBA and IBF world welterweight champion Jaron Ennis<\/a> would be making the move up to 154lbs, the unbeaten American has been tipped to face just one man in particular.<\/p>\n \u2018Boots\u2019 remains unbeaten as a professional since his debut back in 2016, defeating each of the 34 opponents he has faced including wins over Sergey Lipinets, David Avanesyan and Eimantas Stanionis and has racked up a 90% knockout ratio whilst doing so.<\/p>\n He unified the WBA and IBF titles at 147lbs with that victory over Stanionis earlier this year, which would appear to be his final bout at welterweight after he confirmed that he would be jumping up to 154lbs next,<\/a> claiming he will be a \u2018monster\u2019 at the new weight<\/a>.<\/p>\n In an interview with YSM Sports Media<\/a>, \u2018Boots\u2019 said a showdown with reigning WBC \u2018interim\u2019 light-middleweight champion Vergil Ortiz Jr<\/a> will \u2018definitely\u2019 now happen.<\/p>\n \u201cMost definitely. That\u2019s a fight that definitely got to happen, you know that\u2019s the fight everybody wants to see, I\u2019m at 154 now so it got to happen, it got to happen, that fight\u2019s gonna make a lot of money, we\u2019re gonna sell-out no matter where it\u2019s at, everybody wants to see it so I definitely think that fight\u2019s gonna happen for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Ortiz has emerged as one of the sport\u2019s brightest stars in recent years, remaining unbeaten through 23 outings, 21 coming by knockout, since he entered the professional ranks 9-years-ago.<\/p>\n\n
