'Boots'-Kelly poised for Georgia
Jaron 'Boots' Ennis will reportedly take his super-welterweight unification bout against Josh Kelly to Atlanta, for a three-belt blockbuster showdown.
The American, who holds the WBA and WBO straps, has been moving towards the IBF champion in recent weeks for a long-gestating encounter.
There had been questions over whether Ennis might have been tempted to come to the United Kingdom and challenge Kelly on the latter's home soil.
But journalist Dan Rafael reports promoter Eddie Hearn is eyeing the State Farm Arena instead, taking the latter to the United States for the clash.
Froch cautions Benn after loss
Conor Benn "doesn't belong at world level" after his loss to Ryan Garcia, with Carl Froch stating that the Briton was too overwhelmed on Saturday.
'The Destroyer' suffered a two-round loss in his WBC welterweight title challenge, and 'The Cobra' believes it will have served as a wake-up call.

“The truth tonight has been revealed," Froch stated on Froch on Fighting about the fight. "Conor Benn has shown that he doesn’t belong at world level.
"I’m not going to dig out his career and give him any stickh. He believed in himself, but the bottom line is Ryan Garcia is a totally different class.”
Benavidez unimpressed by Opetaia
David Benavidez may have agreed to a cruiserweight showdown with Jai Opetaia, but admits he does not see the star as "the boogeyman" he claims.
The Australian looks set to get his dream bout against 'The Mexican Monster' after a nine-round win over Noel Mikealian in Las Vegas on Saturday.
Benavidez stepped into the ring for a face-off with the Sydneysider afterwards, but subsequently acknowledged he sees a gap between the pair of them.
“I’m not impressed at all," he was quoted. "I thought Jai Opetaia was better. He’s [not] the boogeyman. He’s a great fighter, but he’s not on my level.”
