Jaron Ennis signs with Matchroom

147 pounds, one of the marquee divisions

 

What's up with this guy? He's been on the shelf for over 9 months with no fight planned.

 

Will be champion at 160 within 3 years from now...great talent

 

Hope to see him active, he's one of those guys that needs to be active to stay in killer mode.

He had 2 planned:

Both Barrios and Cody Crawley fell through

 

Sceptical that this is good for the Welterweight division; Matchroom doesn't really have that much talent at 147, so I'm not sure who they can match him with. Nonetheless, if it means we get to see Ennis chin Conor Benn then I'm all for it.

 

He just resolved his legal battle with his former promoter. Now he can resume his career.

 

ennis vs connor benn, wembley stadium

 

Correct. Ennis is now free of NOW promotions and as he didn't win the $1m in damages he was seeking, he will be keen to get back in the ring and make some money.

 

Best move he could have made. Matchroom work with everyone so this doesn’t tie Boots down. PBC would have just ruined Boots with one fight a year. Top Rank would have given him the Crawford treatment. Golden Boy & B-Hop would have alienated him with their big mouths.

Good call from Boots

 

I'm looking forward to even more of Booty Anus' long layoffs and bum-bashing.

 

Hopefully this gets him active

 

Definitely a fight with Benn is in the cards.

 

No time soon I would think. If Benn isn't already under suspension he likely soon will be.

 

Haven’t seen this dude around in years.
