Hrgovic calls Joyce to retire after April 5: “He is ancient, does not look good”

Filip Hrgovic, a heavyweight rivalry, says that he thinks that Joe Joyce should retire immediately after a 10-round fight on Saturday evening April 5, because he thinks “Yuggernaut” is “ancient and does not look good”. Two bulky scales live live in Dazn on Co-OP Live Arena in Manchester, England.
Joyce: Too ancient?
39-year-old Joyce lost three of the last four fights since 2023, and his most disturbing failure was 41-year-old Derek Chisora on July 27 last year.
He is a guy who “The Juggernaut” Joyce (16-3, 15 KO) would probably destroy if he fought him five years ago when he defeated fighters such as Daniel Dubois. Losing with Chisora by a 10-inch unanimous decision showed that things have changed with him.
Joyce’s career began to develop when he stopped in the sixth round through Zhilei Zhang in the first fight on April 15, 2023. Instead of going further, Joe decided to fight the tough -striking Southpaw Zhang in an immediate rematch and was blown up in three rounds in September 2023.
The resistance to the juggernaut impact could affect his second defeat against Zhang, because he was wounded in the fight with the journeyman Kash Ali in March in March and was detained by Chisora.
Assuming that Joyce’s ability to hit is still the same, he must lose weight to return to 250. He was at its best when he weighed in this respect. Joyce approached 280 years. For his fights with Zhang, and he remained on this burden. This is too much weight for everyone, especially a naturally tardy warrior.
“Yes, I think he should retire. He is ancient and does not look good. I think he has achieved a lot and can be proud. He should retire on Saturday,” said Filip Hrgovic Seconds About his belief that at the age of 39 Joe Joyce must retire after the clash on Saturday, April 5 in Manchester.
Hrgovic (17-1, 14 KO) is also in a bad professional situation, which on June 1 last year brings a defeat to the eighth round with Daniel Dubois. He can’t afford another failure if he wants to make a crack in the motor title before getting ancient. None of the masters will look towards Hrgovica if he is beaten again.
HRGOVICA BLUNNITY
“This is a great risk. The loss will throw me out of the picture,” said Hrgovic about the behind schedule deputy in a two -week notification about the fight against Joyce. “When I thought about it, I accepted the challenge and I feel ready to beat him.
“A lot of things that were from my hands. I was wounded and diseased before the fight. I got two huge cuts in battle,” said Hrgovic, explaining why he lost to Daniel Dubois on June 1 last year in Riyadh. “It was not the best version of myself and I think that if I am well prepared and I am hearty, I can compete with everyone.”

The Saturday struggle of the reunification of welterweight between Jaron “Boots” Ennis and Eimantas Stanionis can be a “immediate classic” at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, Recent Jersey. Promoter Hearn believes that the fight between the IBF Ennis champion (33-0, 29 KO) can be a “fight of the year.

Stanionis can take off nervousness if he can withstand the power to hit the shoes and avoid some shots he cast. Olympian 2016 is not challenging to achieve, and he will have to rely on his power game to defeat Ennis.
Early downtime?
Jaron must introduce one of the performances he showed before he fell into Karen Chukhadzhian. Hearn believes that Ennis can do it if he is not exhausted to fight. He thought that shoes, 27 years venerable, looked better on today’s weighing, and he came to 146 1/2 pounds.
Eddie warns that shoes cannot afford to hydrate £ 20+, because on Saturday evening it will be leisurely and lethargy against Stanionis. Ennis looked quite gigantic before he started cutting the weight to fight, and it would not be a surprise if he weighed in the 180s.
“It must be unique to defeat Stanionis tomorrow in the evening. I think Stanionis enters with a fired, accused in the shape of his life, and tomorrow evening you will get a thriller in Atlantic City in Dazn,” said Eddie Hearn supervisor Boxing DAZN About the Saturday struggle of unification between Jaron Ennis and Eimantas Stanionis. “I was surprised when I heard yesterday [trainer Derek] Grip [Ennis] Call early space for shoes. “
The last guy who knocked out early was David Avaneyan in the fifth round in July last year. However, this warrior is not at the same level as Stanionis or as a teenage. The shoes had an easier task against him than on Saturday.
“Stanionis will be aggressive. He will probably make mistakes early, and shoes are a fantastic opponent and a huge IQ,” said Hearn. “When the fight grows, of course, Stanionis pressure, the Stanionis engine will cause problems.”
Ennis fought better in later rounds against Karen than at the beginning of November last year. If he can fight like that, there will be too much for Stanionis in the second half of the fight.
Instant classic?
“This is a great duel of styles. I see nothing but a pretender for the fight of the year and that’s what we want,” said Hearn. “We saw some amazing fights in Saudis and the Ring magazine. Now we see another. It’s a fire.
“Tomorrow evening you will receive an immediate classic and something for pure boxing fans, something for hardcore, something for free sports fans and something for everything in terms of the way he brought weight,” said Hearn.

Eimantas Stanionis: “I’m inside.” Is this enough to surpass Ennis Jaron “Boots”?

By: Sean Crose
IBF Jaron “Boots” welterweight master Ennis will take over the WBA Eimantas Stanionis welterweight master on Saturday evening at Atlantic City. Expect that the crowd in Boardwalk Hall will pull Ennis from nearby Philadelphia. However, it will not be a melody for Ennis, because Stanionis in Lithuania is not only a world title itself, but also an exhilarating warrior who has not yet been defeated. Mighty and solid where Ennis is fluid and exact for their blows, both are an fascinating ring couple. Although few would call it a mega fight, it is undoubtedly a fight.
“These lanes are coming back home,” said Ennis to Dazna after Friday weighing. “It’s time. I will show the world that I am the best in the world. Make sure you get tuned. Don’t get up and buy popcorn, don’t move, don’t blink, none of this.” Stanionis also emanated pure confidence. “I’m inside,” he said when he asked to predict Saturday’s throw. The truth is that the welterweight ward deserves this type of energy. What’s more, I need it. For a long time known as one of the best divisions in the world, the semi -serial division recently risked the slipping into oblivion, just like the medium weight branch recently.
All this will change, however, if Ennis and Stanionis perform an impressive fight this weekend. Leonard, Duran, Hearns, Mayweather and Pacquiao – these are just some of the legendary names that ruled in the division. Undoubtedly, people are naturally looking for stars aged 147. Even titles that were not home names ago, high -class characters, such as Marlon Starling and Lloyd Honeyghan, gave a welterweight division. Together with the latest stars of Terenca Crawford and Errol Spence, now removed from the welterweight division, there is a place to enter a novel star – maybe even two.
The truth is that there is a bit of noise in this fight. Ennis has long been seen as a rising star, while Stanionis has proved again and again that he was a strength in the ring. Although there is no doubt that Ennis will be a favorite, entering, do not expect that too many people will be surprised if Stanionis distracts nervousness. With records, 33-0 and 15-0, respectively, Ennis and Stanionis on the line place both their main belts and undefeated entries. In other words, it is a battle with high rates between two high quality fighters. In other words, the perfect Saturday fight.

IBF welterweight master, Jaron “Boots” Ennis and WBA, Eimantas Stanionis, successfully weighed successfully during Wais-in during the unification on Saturday, April 12, live in Dazn, and the event starts at 20:00 et / 17:00 Pt with Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, Fresh Jersey.
Weighing success
– ennis 146 1/2 vs. Stanionis 146 3/4
“He said,” I really want to unite. This is one of the reasons why I signed a contract with Matchroom. I thought you could fight, “said Eddie Hearn Fight Hub tv Connect what Jaron “Boots” recently told him Ennis when he asked him if he wanted to go to 154.
Ennis should have been assertive of Hearn, telling him that a better career movement is for him to move to a younger medium scale, to chase more fights than staying in 147, fighting with such as Eimantas Stanionis and Brian Norman Jr. Unifing against these guys is not as impressive as it would be for Ennis to face the murders in this division. Wdzka, a half -average is more hiding to Jaron to avoid unsafe guys aged 154.
Doubts about Ennis
“There was a lot of pressure to do [Stanionis unification clash] fight. Respect him for wanting to fight one of the best in the division. This is the right fight for Jaron Ennis to show everyone that the noise is real. Stanionis is a phenomenal warrior, “said Hearn.
Stanionis is not a fight that proves that Ennis is not a noise work. Fights that prove that they are Brian Norman Jr., Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez. If Ennis can defeat these warriors, he proves that he is not a buzz in a frail division. He came at the right time when Errol Spence, Ternence Crawford and Vergil Ortiz Jr. They moved to 154, where he should be.
“If the shoes work as he did against Chukhadzhian or if he is not a warrior who, in our opinion, intends, it will be a very challenging night work in the Boardwalk room. I believe that he will make a statement and show the world.”
There is no one where Jaron Ennis is not a “warrior we thought about” that he was. This was shown not only by two fights by Karen Chukhadzhian. There were also duels David Avanesan and Roiman Villa, which showed that Ennis is not a phenomenon we were thinking about at first.
Ennis can still win on Saturday, but only because Stanionis is not a great warrior and is badly defective. We saw it in the exhausting clashes of Stanionis with Gabriel Maestre, Radadahab Betaev and Thomas Dulorme.
ORTIZ JR. Fight has fallen
“He is a world champion at the age of 147. The fight was proposed in the amount of 154 or without title [correction: WBC interim junior middleweight title would have been at stake]And he wanted to defend his world championship and unify, “said Hearn, when he asked why Ennis refused to fight these champion 154-Funts Vergil Ortiz Jr. on the card on February 22 in Rijada.
“He said,” I will fight Vergil Ortiz and I will fight Crawford, but I really want to unite. It was my dream. ” He never defeated the world champion to become the world champion – said Hearn about Ennis. “The shoes are clearly about heritage. I think that if we didn’t deliver Stanionis, we could look back at the Ortiz fight,” maybe we should take it. “
“He said,” I believe in you. Do you think you can get me union? “I said,” Yes, “and then said,” Let’s do it. ” I thought: “S ***”, and then I left and luckily it all succeeded.
