Ennis (33-0, 29 KOs) holds the IBF welterweight title and is going after the WBA strap held by Eimantas Stanionis this Saturday, April 12th, at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Last year, Jaron, 27, missed out on an opportunity to pick up the WBO title from Brian Norman Jr. when his promoter, Eddie Hearn of Matchroom, failed to negotiate a deal.<\/p>\n
The $1.7 million that Hearn offered Norman Jr. was rejected, as he wanted an increase of $500,000 to bring it to $2.2 million. The 500K that Norman Jr. wanted was considered too steep. If these are the kinds of problems that Ennis will be confronted with in his attempts at capturing all the belts at 147, 154. 160 and 168.<\/p>\n
Hearn\u2019s Investment<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s just not going to happen. Hearn needs to invest in Boots Ennis the way he would if it were his flagship fighter, Anthony Joshua. Thus far, it\u2019s not happening. Ennis may need to downsize his career goals and just focus on beating the best guys he can under his limited promotional structure. If his name was Anthony Joshua, it would be different.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve thought about it, but it\u2019s not my goal. I don\u2019t care if I\u2019m 49-0. If I retire at 49, as long as I accomplish what I accomplish in this boxing in this boxing game and I\u2019m a multi-weight division and I fought all the top guys that had belts, I\u2019m fine with 49-0. I wouldn\u2019t try and come back and try and make it 50 or 51 just to beat his record,\u201d said Jaron \u2018Boots\u2019 Ennis to YSM Sports Media<\/a> when asked if his goal is to try and surpass Floyd Mayweather\u2019s 50-0 record.<\/p>\n It\u2019s wise for Ennis not to think about breaking Mayweather\u2019s 50-0 record because that\u2019s superficial junk. Mayweather\u2019s record is tainted and fake due to his controversial wins over Jose Luis Castillo and Marcos Maidana in their first fights. The judges bailed Floyd out by giving him wins many boxing fans believe he didn\u2019t deserve.<\/p>\n Mayweather\u2019s record-breaking 50th victory was against former UFC champion Conor McGregor, who was making his debut in boxing with a 0-0 record. Mayweather\u2019s record should have an asterisk<\/strong> next to it, along with a footnote describing the conditions in which he set it.<\/p>\n The Nevada State Athletic Commission arguably should have NEVER sanctioned the Mayweather vs. McGregor as a professional fight. That looked bad having a novice fighting Floyd to break Rocky Marciano\u2019s 49-0 record.<\/p>\n Can you imagine the late, great Marciano wanting to fight a non-boxer to break a record? Mayweather stooped to an all-time low by pulling that move rather than taking on Keith Thurman, who was then still fighting and would have been a nightmare for him.<\/p>\n Ennis\u2019 Focus<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cAs long as I accomplish my goals and beat all the guys I want to beat, that\u2019s all that matters to me,\u201d continued Ennis. \u201cStamp my mark at 147. Stand my mark at 154, 60, and maybe 168,\u201d said Boots when asked what his goals are before retiring. Try to be undisputed in all those weight classes. So, that\u2019s 147, 154, 160, and 168. So, four-time undisputed weight division champ.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
