Interim IBF Welterweight Champion Jaron Ennis (30-0, 27 KOs) will face Royman Villa (26-1, 24 KOs) April 22 in Las Vegas. This is reported by ESPN journalist Salvador Rodriguez.

25-year-old Ennis won the interim title of the International Boxing Federation in January, defeating Karen Chukhadzhyan on points. In his last appearance in the ring, Villa scored a surprise victory over Rashidi Ellis.

The main event of the April evening will be the duel between Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia. Fans are also expected to see undefeated lightweight William Cepeda (27-0, 23 KOs) this evening. The evening will be shown in the United States on the Showtime TV channel in a paid broadcast.
