Ennis: I'm Ready For Anybody In Top 5, Bring On Them Names And I'll Be Ready

•Dec 31, 2020

Armed with 17 career knockouts in three rounds or less, Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis is no stranger to quick nights at the office. This was not at all what he had in mind, however, for how things turned out in his latest ring appearance. The red-hot welterweight contender from Philadelphia saw a 16-fight knockout streak end after settling for a one-round No-Decision versus Chris van Heerden. A clash of heads left South Africa’s van Heerden (28-2-1, 12KOs; 1ND) with a deep gash atop his forehead, forcing a stoppage at 2:39 of the opening round in their Showtime-televised bout earlier this month from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.

It wasn’t easy, but Chris Van Heerden finally came to the conclusion, like so many did, that 2020 was going to be a wash for his career, a lost year that hopefully led to something bigger and better in 2021. Even normal would be all right for the South Africa native, who gave up so much to chase a dream in the United States back in 2013.

Jaron Ennis had never even heard of Chris van Heerden before the South African southpaw was secured as Thomas Dulorme’s replacement 2½ weeks ago. “I don’t really focus on these other boxers,” Ennis told BoxingScene.com. “I just try to focus on myself and stay in my own lane, and figure out ways I can better myself and not be the same way when I fight.”
