Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis must discover a solution to make his rematch with IBF obligatory Karen Chukhadzhian extra thrilling for the followers on November ninth. They’re anticipating an analogous uninteresting battle to their earlier one a 12 months in the past, and so they’re not wanting ahead to this.
Ennis (32-0, 29 KOs) regarded like he had two left toes in his battle in opposition to Chukhadzhian (24-2, 13 KOs) on January seventh in Washington, D.C. He was making an attempt to knock out the artful fighter and lacking with wild pictures. Chukhadzhian does nicely in opposition to sluggers. He didn’t win, however he succeeded in making Ennis look clueless.
IBF welterweight champion Ennis will battle in entrance of his house crowd on November ninth on the Wells Fargo Heart in Philadelphia. The battle shall be proven dwell on DAZN. Boots says he’ll “have enjoyable,” however he voiced comparable feedback earlier than his final battle in opposition to David Avanesyan on July thirteenth. He didn’t look good in that battle, both.
“There’s extra threat for Boots Ennis. This battle is like seeing a Hollywood bomb after which saying, ‘Let’s pour extra money right into a sequel,’” stated Chris Mannix to DAZN Boxing concerning the rematch between Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis and Karen Chukhadzhian on November ninth.
Ennis has no selection however to take the rematch as a result of Chukhadzhian labored his means into the IBF obligatory spot place, successful three fights since his January loss final 12 months.
Boots might have prevented combating Chukhadzhian once more provided that his promoter, Eddie Hearn, had negotiated the unification battle with WBO champion Brian Norman Jr. or if Ennis had vacated.
Hearn failed to barter the battle with Norman as a result of he wished $2.2 million, and Eddie wasn’t going to sweeten the deal from the $1.7 million he supplied.
“That’s the anticipation for this battle being terrible is frankly at an all time excessive. Boots Ennis must discover a solution to compound these expectations. He’s received an excellent stablemate who can assist him with a mover, and that’s Andy Cruz.
“I noticed Michael Mckinson in his coaching camp as nicely. That’s one other man that’s going to maneuver round in that health club,” stated Mannix about Ennis having Cruz and Mckinson to assist him put together for the extremely cell Chukhadzhian.
Even with light-weight contender Andy Cruz and welterweight mover Michael McKinson serving to Ennis put together for Chukhadzhian’s mobility, it will likely be troublesome to chop off the ring to land his energy pictures.
This man is much more of a mover than these two. The Cuban Cruz is a fighter who stands in entrance of his opponents and makes them miss with reflexes and by leaning away from pictures.
Chukhadzhian strikes across the ring, and it’s virtually inconceivable to catch him. It could be dangerous for Ennis’s profession if he turned in one other poor efficiency in opposition to Karen, as he did final 12 months.
