Jaron Ennis is finally ready to test himself against the very best that a stacked welterweight division has to offer.
The Philadelphia fighter returns to action this weekend when he faces Roiman Villa in New Jersey, and if successful, he’ll immediately switch his attention to July 29 when Errol Spence and Terence Crawford collide for all the belts at 147lbs.
The long-time rivals will do battle for undisputed status after years of teasing a fight and the winner will be in an ideal position to call themselves the world’s best fighter.
Whoever that man is, a list of contenders will be ready to test themselves against that boxer and Ennis believes he’s best positioned to be that person.
"I believe I'm the best option," said Ennis when speaking to TMZ.
"I feel like everybody wants to see me versus Spence or me versus Bud. I don't think they want to see nobody else fight them."
