Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis In Talks For Sebastian Fundora Unification Fight

Fundora captured his WBC belt back in early 2024 by upsetting Tim Tszyu, and he has been on a tear ever since. He stacked up wins over Chordale Booker, beat Tszyu again of their rematch, and is just coming off a blistering performance earlier this month in Las Vegas where he put away Keith Thurman in six rounds.

Fundora poses a very different test than Zayas. At 6’5 1/2″, he has shown he can use his length to manage opponents from the surface or abandon that approach altogether and fight in close, making him one in all the division’s most difficult stylistic matchups. Ennis will need his speed, timing and ring IQ to regulate to whichever version shows up.

Fundora represents the fastest path available to the highest of the division. Fairly than spending the following yr defending his belts, Ennis has a likelihood to eliminate one other champion immediately and reduce the undisputed picture to a single remaining fight.

Plenty still has to fall into place before the fight becomes official, however the prize couldn’t be much larger. Three of the 4 major world titles can be on the road, leaving the winner only one belt away from the undisputed championship.

The proposed matchup first surfaced in a report from Ring Magazine’s Mike Coppinger, who said each camps are working toward a November or December date.
