Jaron "Boots" Ennis returned to the ring Saturday night in his hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, stepping up to junior middleweight.
He faced Uisma Lima, a fighter with only one defeat, making his American debut.
The opening round saw a thunderous combination put Lima to the mat. He got up, but Ennis immediately went to work to end the fight early.
A few seconds later, Lima was down again, and after getting up, a final furious flurry led the referee to step in and end the fight.
Ennis looked absolutely stellar in his junior middleweight debut.
