Teofimo Lopez Jnr and Jaron Ennis are looking for big-name dance partners, and that has taken them to each other. It's a fight Top Rank's Carl Moretti likes, and it could happen as early as March.

Boxing’s welterweight division needs a spark. Perhaps Teofimo Lopez can provide it. The 140-pound champion is closing in on a deal to move up and challenge for the title.

Top Rank promoter Bob Arum has revealed that Matchroom chief Eddie Hearn has been approached about making the fight, which would be a joint DAZN and ESPN PPV. Ennis was last in action in November, when he defended his belt with an underwhelming points victory over Karen Chukhadzhian to extend his unbeaten record to 33-0.

Teofimo Lopez has called out Terence Crawford, Jaron Ennis and Gervonta Davis to secure a big fight. The WBO Junior Welterweight Champion has not boxed since beating Steve Claggett in his last fight.

After losing his unified titles at lightweight in a shock upset against George Kambosos Jr, the 27-year-old moved up to 140 pounds and, after wins against Pedro Campa and Sandor Martin, beat former undisputed champion Josh Taylor to win the WBO World Title.

While Teofimo Lopez and Jaron Ennis explore a Spring 2025 matchup, fights to determine their next mandatory challengers have also been agreed upon.
