Ennis vows to show 'levels' exist ahead of Zayas clash

Jaron Ennis says his performance against Xander Zayas will prove he operates on a different plane to his welterweight rivals. The IBF champion believes the bout will highlight a gulf in ability.

“They gonna be like, 'Man, this kid is amazing,' We've never seen nothing like it. I feel like these guys can't do what I do and they don't carry it out how I carry it. And I'm a show the world there's like really levels.”
