Ennis Hints at Good News About Next Battle, Possible Reunion With Norman Jr. Conflict
Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis has posted on social media, revealing some good news about his next fight. He is in talks with WBO welterweight champion Brian Norman Jr.
The Battle of Boot Integration vs. Norman Jr. 147-lb is rumored to happen November 9 in Philadelphia. Brian’s father, Norman Sr., said the fight was “99% possible”. They are waiting for Top Rank to discuss with the promoters of Boots Ennis who is the IBF welterweight champion at Matchroom.
Ennis (32-0, 29 KOs) needs a fight to become the undisputed champion, and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, wants to unify instead of the IBF defense he was forced to face, Karen Chukhadzhian, who was beaten by Boot by a unanimous decision in rounds. 12 last year. on January 7, 2023, he won by scores of 120-108, 120-108 and 120-108.
If Boots gets stuck defending his IBF belt against unknown fighters who don’t do his job, he might not be a star anymore. He doesn’t go on social media like other fighters. Therefore, he cannot rely on that to increase his popularity outside the ring like Ryan Garcia or Shakur Stevenson.
“My Son Will Beat Your Son”
“Boots is a great fighter, but my son is better. I told him [trainer Derek ‘Bozy’ Ennis]’My son will beat your son.’ What else should I say?” said Brian Norman Sr. on the Zeb Brooks Multimedia YouTube channel about the rumored fight between WBO welterweight champion Brian Norman Jr. and IBF champion Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis.
If Norman Jr. beating Ennis, that would be a huge setback for promoter Hearn, who recently signed him, believing he had inked a guy destined for stardom. Watching the decline in his views soon will be similar to how Hearn made the mistake of signing two-time 140-lb champion Regis Prograis, only to see him lose to Devin Haney last December.
“99%,” said Norman Sr. when asked how certain the fight with Ennis would be. “It has to be done today. I don’t understand what we are waiting for. Boots doesn’t want to fight Karen. No one wants to see Bhuti fight with Karen.

“He [Boots Ennis] He Never Faced Resistance”
“The fans need a strong hero, and you dare to challenge our hero. People want it to be easy. We don’t know how Bhuti found it in his hometown, where everyone came to him and worshiped him. We don’t have it like that. My son was tested more than Bhuti,” said Norman Sr.
The promoters gave Boot Ennis the red carpet treatment because he was introduced when he was crowned champion in 2016. It took him a long time to become a star because fighters like Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. they showed no interest in fighting him. Also, the welterweight division being so weak now has delayed his progress.
“All the battles that Boots faced were in favor of Boots. “Every fight Boots was in was not close,” Norman Sr. said. “People say, ‘He’s killing everybody,’ but everybody he was killing, my son would have killed him, or the guy we just had a fight with. [Giovani Santillan] it would be over.”
Norman Sr. he does not lie. His son will beat everyone Boots Ennis fights because his resume is empty. The best guys Boot has fought are these fighters:
– Roiman Villa
– David Avaneysan
– Karen Chukhadzhian
– Sergey Lipints
“He [Boots Ennis] He has never met the opposition he will meet with my son. I have seen the way he reacts when he meets opposition. If he acts like I think he will, that will play a big role in my son’s love. “I wouldn’t have taken this fight if I didn’t think we could win this fight,” said Norman Sr.
