Terence Crawford, a highly skilled boxer with an impressive record, is at a pivotal moment in his career, facing a decision of great consequence regarding his next fight in 2024. The options of fighting Jaron 'Boots' Ennis, Jermell Charlo, or Canelo Alvarez ,and the potential move to the 154-pound division, make Crawford's next move a matter of intense interest and scrutiny in the boxing world.
The Dilemma
The walls seem to be closing in on Terence Crawford as his coach, Bernie Davis, and strength coach, Rob Acosta, express concerns about his limited options for his next fight. At 37 years old, Crawford is seeking high profile fights that motivate him to get back in the ring. The issue is, there are not many left.
Jaron 'Boots' Ennis
Eddie hearn will do his best for his fighter Jaron 'Boots' Ennis to face Terence Crawford in 2025. Ennis's style provides an intriguing challenge for Crawford. Ennis is currently seeking to become undisputed at 147 pounds then move up to fight Terence Crawford.
Boots Ennis has been described the Boogie Man by many, not having a lot of big fights under his belt and not being a big enough draw has potentially kept Crawford away from this fight. Ennis could eventually get his crack at Crawford but the idea of it being in 2025 is still up in the air.
Undisputed at 154
The possibility of Crawford becoming a three-division undisputed champion is a tantalizing prospect that could solidify his place as one of the greatest in boxing history. Names like Sebastian Fundora, Tim Tsyu, and Vergil Ortiz are all potential opponents for Terence Crawford at 154 pounds, adding to the excitement of his future in the sport.
Rumored Canelo Fight
Canelo and Crawford are the two best of their generation. It seems a popular opinion that facing Canelo at 168 would be too much weight for Crawford. However, a Canelo vs Crawford fight is THE fight to make in boxing. This fight would not only settle who is the best boxer of the last decade but also potentially reshape the boxing landscape. Will the fight ever take place? Onky time will tell.
Conclusion
Terence Crawford is one of the most accomplished boxers in the sports history. The question is not only who he will fight again. It is will he fight again. His next fight will likely not place until 2025.Who is opponent will be is anyone's guess.
