Among the prospects hoping to reignite the middleweight division is Amari “The Reaper” Jones, who signed with Golden Boy Promotions on Friday, the promoter announced. A decorated amateur fighter and now a switch-hitting professional, the 23-year-old Jones, 14-0 (12 KOs), will seek to make his debut under the Golden Boy banner soon.
Jones, ranked No. 13 by the IBF, most recently defeated the 12-3 Kyle Lomotey by wide unanimous decision in May. Prior to that fight, he had stopped five consecutive opponents.
