What next for Amari Jones after career best win in San Jose? There is some fights in the works now.
Amari Jones will be in a real fight next up. That’s for sure.
On Friday night in San Jose he outboxed and outpunched, and dispatched of a former world champion from Germany that was meant to be his toughest test to date.
It only took him three rounds and he moved through him fast.
Next up he is in line for a world title shot in the middleweight division.
For those new to boxing here are possible opponents next for the vacant IBF title:
- Etinosa Oliha – IBF top ranked and already ordered for the vacant belt
- Aaron McKenna – Undefeated Irish contender also in line for the vacant title
- Chris Eubank Jr. – Big UK name who needs a title path
- Hamzah Sheeraz – Young British contender Golden Boy could co-promote
- Janibek Alimkhanuly – Former IBF champ who may get reinstated
- Erislandy Lara – WBA champ for a possible unification
- Carlos Adames – WBC champ if they push for all the belts
It most possibly however is the first two names on the list above and Oliha is who for now it will possibly be against.
Unless something were to happen to him say, that was cause one of the others to have to step in.
He beat the guy tonight in boxing from Germany who only lost to Janibek Alimkhanuly so it was a solid win for Amari Jones tonight.
Who knows what fights Amari Jones will be in next but tonight in boxing was a solid win for him and lived up to the hype.
