'We can make that thing happen!' - Ennis rival eyes encounter after Zayas bout
Zayas vs. Ennis: Watch only on DAZN PPV - Saturday
Brian Norman Jr. admits he still hopes to face Jaron Ennis when he makes the eventual move to the super-welterweight class.
'Boots' challenges Xander Zayas for his WBA and WBO crowns tonight in New York, on DAZN Pay-Per-View and Ultimate.
Ennis arrives having already dismissed Uisma Lima at light-middleweight, and with his eyes on securing two-division glory.
But former WBO welterweight champion Norman, long linked to a bout with the star, still hopes that their paths may cross too.

“I want to fight all the top guys", he told The Ring . "I know I will move up, and if he’s still there, we can make that thing happen."
Weighing in on the bout between Ennis and Zayas, Norman suggested that it would be "a cold one" between them on Saturday.
"You've got the champion, he ain't going to give it up easy," he added. "You've got Jaron Ennis coming in hungry. He's got to prove himself.
“It's a whole bunch of battle of personalities - [a] battle of ego, and battle of pride. It's in Brooklyn, and I believe that's where Zayas likes to fight the most."
