As reported by “NBN” with a link According to BoxingNews24, promoter Eddie Hearn has let it slip who IBF welterweight title holder Jaron Ennis could face in a potential fight.
According to Hearn, the expected Ennis vs. Norman is effectively dead, and the American will either have to fight our boxer or “vacate” the title.
The promoter emphasized his intentions, stating that he wants Boots [Ennis's ring name] to be able to unify the divisions (weight categories) within the framework of a “grand card” scheduled for November.
Hearn summarized:
Let's see how the bidding goes [for the rematch between Ennis and Chukhadzhyan]. I also have no problem with Boots moving to light middleweight. I reached out to Bogachuk [Ukrainian boxer]. I think it's a great fight. There's also Israil Madrimov [Uzbek boxer].
