Ennis, Kelly plan three-belt fight in Atlanta

Jaron “Boots” Ennis and Josh Kelly are set to meet in a three-belt super-welterweight unification fight on Feb. 27, 2027, at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. Ennis holds the WBA and WBO titles, while Kelly holds the IBF belt; the winner would be one title away from becoming undisputed, with WBC champion Sebastian Fundora the likely next target. The bout, promoted by Matchroom, is expected to headline a broadcast shared by TNT Sports and DAZN. One report cautions that an undisputed fight may not follow quickly: Fundora and his promoter, PBC, could have substantial negotiating leverage, and a summer turnaround could leave the Atlanta winner little time to recover.
