"They can say what they want it don’t make me a difference. These dudes can’t tie my shoes. I'm the best in the world and they know it! I want all the big names and belts - THE TOUR CONTINUES."

UISMA LIMA

“I am very excited to be taking on the biggest challenge of my life against a legit, World-level fighter in Ennis. I believe in myself, I want to thank my team for everything they have done and on October 11 we will be coming to war. Please don’t take me lightly, Boots, as I am coming to win.”

EDDIE HEARN

“I cannot wait to see Boots at 154lbs. Jaron was outstanding in what turned out to be his last fight at 147lbs, but after listening to his body, it’s time to start the journey to two-weight glory, and I cannot wait to see what sort of animal this man will be at his new weight.

“But October 11 is a real test. Uisma has consistently won fights on hostile territory, and the big-hitting African is coming to Philly to make a name for himself and take those big fights that are there for Boots next.”
