In a recent interview with FightHype.com, Bozy added his voice to the discussion. With his experience and knowledge of the sport, Bozy Ennis has carefully analyzed both Spence and Crawford’s fighting styles. While he thinks that the fight could go either way, he specifically pointed out that Crawford often starts his fights slowly. According to him, this trend could prove risky against an opponent of Spence’s calibre.

“50-50, that’s what I see, but if Crawford starts off slow like he usually does, if you see his fights, he starts off slow, if he does that with Spence, he’s in trouble.” he said

However, despite calling this an equal paring, the legendary trainer thinks his son could beat both ‘Bud’ and ‘The Truth’ and prove that he is the best Welterweight on the planet
