Promoter Eddie Hearn is delighted to share that all 4,000 pre-sale tickets for IBF welterweight champion Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis’ homecoming bout have been snapped up. Ennis is set to defend his title against Cody Crowley on July 13th at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
The general sale for tickets starts today, and there is a strong possibility that the event will be a full house, despite Ennis going up against the undefeated but relatively unknown opponent, Crowley.
Hearn has ambitious plans for Ennis, aiming to help him unify the 147-pound division and become the undisputed champion before looking to move up to 154 pounds and potentially take on Terence Crawford. With an impressive record of 31 wins and 28 knockouts, Ennis has the talent and potential to achieve great success in boxing.
It’s vital for Ennis to stay active and face the right opponents to continue his journey towards stardom. Hearn recognizes the significance of pitting Ennis against American fighters to boost his profile, in contrast to matching him mainly against UK-based opponents like Demetrius Andrade.
Overall, the excitement for Ennis’ upcoming fight against Crowley is palpable, and Hearn is dedicated to ensuring that Ennis stays on a successful path in his boxing career.
