Jaron ‘boots’ ennis plays a dangerous game

When an amazing, invincible American became in 2020, he began to press the web page of Sky Sports, he raised questions from inquisitive friends and family home in London, curious how much I knew about him.

He was a bad person, even then, and in the middle of a red -hot knockout, which should be reported, a British audience.

Not many non-British athletes in military sports, and not the championship,-the type of Jaron “Boots”, received by Ennis at that time, would recover. But this was evidence of the potential Ennis, the potential may be imitated by modern and international well-known welterweight, such as Floyd Mayuer Jr. and Oscar de la Hoya.

In subsequent years, Ennis (33-0, 29 KOS) received wide recognition for his blow, the ability to switch and collect bruises. His dropper of the ring is as bright and attractive as its extraordinary rod, the instinctive movement of the head and the Philly shell. He retained his invincible professional record, continuing to calculate the knockouts.

But one thing is missing.

Even at the age of 28, five years, remote from the moment Ennis struck my father’s curiosity, seeing him in the sky, the IBF champion in the welterweight is still lacking inherited battles, which allocated Maiser and de la Hoya for so long.

What is even worse, he took on the meaningless revenge with IBF in 2024 against Karen Chukhajian, which he had already well ahead of the 22 months before, and performed only at such a performance in the conduct.

Annis promoter, Eddie Hirn, already believed that he had moved in super -weight. “Maybe it’s time to move (up),” said Hyrn Uncrond in November this year.

Ennis did not agree that the battles of 154 pounds were more tempting, on paper, considering the abundance of high -quality fighters, such as the Sebastian of the Fundor, Sergia Bokhachuk, Bakram Murtazaliev, Isral Madrimov and Virgil Ortis. “I’m not going to lie,” said Ennis in November, “154 (pound) pops up. Everything is now in 154. But let me cope with the business of 147. I will be there soon. ”

A fighter, obsessed with 147 pounds, then rejected the chance to take Ortis in 154 pounds on one of the largest maps of the year in that it would be the most significant struggle in his career so that instead he could try to combine the world’s titles in the welterweight of the weight, possibly become an indisputable champion.

She shore from fans and the media, as the boots believed that Ortisa liked them.

Suddenly, the division’s bugamyan in the Spence Age against Crawford lost his bugey.

I placed this in Ortis when I visited him in Riverside, California, at the beginning of this year. “Many people do not really know what is happening in the background,” he said to Uncrond.

“And I say this as an athlete who was on the other side,” Ortis said, referring to his own illnesses, which led to the conclusion and cancellation of the battle. “There were times when I had problems approaching the stairs … My body was surrendering to me, and people thought that I was bulls *****.”

Ortis, I would not want to call Ennis Duck, said that this is a fight that could still happen in the future, giving Annis what he intends to do now when he pledged to remain in the welterweight – to unite the division and become an indisputable champion.

But this is a dangerous game.

If the boots provide one more inadequate performance when he is confused with the WBA champion in Ayantas Stanionis’s welterweight in the famous Bourdwalk Hall in the Atlantic -City on Saturday in his first battle in the association, or he must defeat, but continued to struggle in his search for all the main belts in a welterweight, he will lose In great years, when his body could be better suitable for a super -grain weight.

Just as Ennis loses a little of his buge, in the welterweight of Brian Norman, a new monster also appeared, which over the past 12 months covers the impulse of strong victories in the back to the back. Ennis, becoming an indisputable champion, in his weight, which he can try his best to continue to contract for another year, is no longer a predetermined conclusion when those around him are already encouraging him to move.

Productive battles often require career opponents, and not belts that can or cannot accompany these battles. For Ennis, opponents who will help to determine his career are not 147 pounds, even if there are titles of the world that will be collected there.

Ortis, however, does not agree. “If it becomes indisputable, our struggle may be a greater struggle,” Ortis UNCROND said. “I’m not a hate at all. I wish you all success … just not against me. “

Ennis against Stanionis will be aired on Dann, starting from 8 pm on eastern time. Catch complete results, main points and round coverage of the main map on uneven.
