Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis’ crew has reportedly despatched a six-figure supply to unbeaten junior middleweight contender Charles Conwell for a struggle later this 12 months.
A Harmful, But Unheralded, Opponent
Conwell, 26, isn’t the fighter that folks anticipated Boots Ennis to face in his debut at 154 as a result of this man is harmful, however it wouldn’t be a struggle that may entice a whole lot of consideration from followers.
