The IBF welterweight master, Jaron “Boots” Ennis, says that he intends to go out and show that he is “one of the best fighters” in sport next month in unification with the WBA champion Eimantas Stanionis on April 12 in Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, Novel Jersey.

Adaptation problems

Ennis (33-0, 29 KO) did not have much to say when he said in an interview that people say that he was revealed in a rematch with Karen Chukhadzhian on November 9, showing Lack of ability to adapt to what he did in the ring. The shoes looked one -dimensional and unable to cope with the skills of a talented Ukrainian warrior.

27-year-old Ennis, promoted by the match, does not say if he will stay at 147 to end the goal of becoming the undisputed champion or go to 154 to get more fights. Sounds like a broken recordEnnis repeated many times that he focused only on what is in front of him in the fight with Stanionis (15-0, 9 KO). Before the last fight with Karen Boots, he repeated the same thing: “Wait for him to have fun” and the knockout will come.

It seems that he is not able to change, not only what he says from one interview to another, but also in the ring. Ennis fights in the same way and looks confused when you need to come up with a warrior showing his skills. In retrospect, it is good that Terenka Crawford did not fight him before leaving the division 147 pounds. He made Ennis look bad.

View of boxing fans Ennis shoes as Truck. He He should fight at the age of 154, but he decides to stay in a tender 147-pound division, because there is no threat to repeat itself.

“Overrated” label

They already consider Ennis as “overrated”, not a guy who originally thought when he first began his career. It is simple to look great when the warrior is matched as Ennis was at the beginning of his career. Now he finally stands in the face of guys with ability; It is obvious that he is not a warrior whom the naive fans thought for the first time. In other words, Ennis is just another example of noise.

If Ennis moved to 154 to take up challenging challenges in this weight class, his career would fall quickly if he couldn’t cope with talented killers in this division. The inability of boots to adapt to his rematch from Karen in November last year suggests that he is not doing well in the younger medium weight towards fighters who can hit and are able to give it a different look.

“I am ready to show the world why I am one of the best fighters in the world,” said Jaron Ennis Warrior About his April 12, the struggle of unification with the WBA WBA Eimantas Stanionis in Atlantic City, Novel Jersey. After this fight, everyone calls my name. It seems to me that it is easier to introduce these guys in the ring, “said Boots Ennis, responding to the saying that people say that Karen Chukhadzhian” was revealed “by the rematch on November 9 last year.

It is too delayed for Ennis to “show the world” that he is one of the best, because Chukhadzhian has already revealed him that he is not one of the elites. What the shoes need to do is back from Karen for the trilogy, because he was both in two fights and looked like in both. I fall out of this competition to fight Stanionis, is a signal of failure.

“Then they [Team Crawford] They said that I was a “high risk, a low reward,” said Ennis, putting positively, not fighting Crawford. “My goal is on April 12 to become a unified world champion. Gather this magazine Ring and WBA, and from there we will see what options we will do. My goal is what is before me, and this is Eimantas Stanionis and one of these belts.”

Challenged ambition

See what I mean in shoes that sound like a broken record. He repeats like an elderly person and seems to be able to change. What’s more, his decision to stay rooted in the place in 147 shows both the lack of ambition and courage. He should fight for 154 instead of staying in 147, to complement his superficial goal, which is unquestioned.

This only means something to capture all four belts in the weight class if the division is arranged with talented masters. If it is sterile and lifeless, then a waste of time and does nothing for a warrior’s career; That Ennis does not understand what he says much about him.

“As I said, my main goal is what is ahead of me,” said Ennis “boots” asked if he was going to fight Teofimo Lopez, instead of continuing the unification with the semiconductor scale master Brian Norman Jr. “I’m still 147 pounds at the moment,” Ennis said about whether he will soon go to 154 to fight Vergil Ortiz Jr.

“I’m 147 pounds now,” said Jaron, asked if he would be interested in fighting Keith Thurman at the age of 154. “When time comes and 154, we can talk about them other guys. But at the moment I am 147 pounds.

Dave Allen weighed at his lightest in seven years, causing ‘biggest brawl in British boxing history’ in match against Hrgovic

Dave Allen weighs lightest in 7 years to produce ‘biggest upset in British boxing history’ against Hrgovic

Dave Allen kept his word and will enter the fight with Filip Hrgovic in decent shape.

The fan-favorite Briton has been emotional throughout his career, often revealing after defeats that he could have trained harder and prepared better.

This weekend he will be looking to claim the biggest scalp of his campaign in Hrgovica world-class, well-trained and sturdy Croatian, whose only defeat was against the up-to-date world champion Daniel Dubois.

Although he still considers the main event at London’s O2 Arena against Lucas Browne to be the biggest achievement of his career, Allen will be fighting in front of 10,000 fans at the Keepmoat Stadium in Doncaster, and the importance of this event has not crossed his mind.

He clearly has a tough trainer, tipping the scales at 248.8 pounds. This is an impressive drop compared to the 271 he weighed in his last appearance – in February he defeated Karim Berredjem in the first round. In fact, this is the lowest weight Allen has registered since his 2019 loss to David Price.

Speaking about the transformation, “Dazzling” Dave said:

“I’ve just eaten less chocolate, less sweets… People talk about sacrifices but I’m actually very elated. I spend a lot of time with my family, my children and boxing for a living. Everyone here doing a 9-5, it’s a sacrifice. It wouldn’t be fair to talk about sacrifice, I live my dreams every day. Sometimes it’s difficult in the gym, sometimes I feel like eating something, but I’ll go out in front of 10,000 people in Doncaster against one of the best heavyweights in the world. world. It was my dream and I will make it come true soon.

Regardless of his shape, most consider Hrgović too gigantic a mountain for Allen to climb. He is aware of this but believes it could cause one of the worst disturbances ever seen on British shores.

“He’s a great fighter, but I’m not afraid of him. He’s been trying to tell me all week that I don’t want to look at him. I don’t care about Filip Hrgovic. It’s a boxing match.

“On paper I shouldn’t even be in the ring with him, but I feel tomorrow at Donny’s will be a special night where I’ll experience one of the biggest upsets in British boxing history.”

If Allen fails to disrupt the odds and Hrgovic emerges unscathed, he is widely expected to face Moses Itauma in August.

David Morrell says a career doesn’t end after a KO defeat

Image: David Morrell Says Career Isn’t Over After Zak Chelli Knockout

David Morrell says his career isn’t over after his knockout loss to Zak Chelli last Saturday in England, but questions are already being raised about whether Morrell should return to 168 pounds after another tough run at lithe heavyweight.

Morrell was stopped in the 10th and final round after a competitive bout on the Fabio Wardley vs. Daniel Dubois heavyweight undercard. The defeat was Morrell’s second defeat in his last three fights following a decision loss to David Benavidez in February 2025.


“This doesn’t mean David Morrell’s career is over,” Morrell said on the I shownstagram. We must take this as a lesson and move on with greater strength.

“We’ll be back soon and we’ll have more news for you.”

Morrell also assured fans that he was recovering quickly from the knockout.

“For those who are worried: thank God, I am well and robust.

“A person is not measured by the number of times he falls, but by the number of times he gets up.

“This is the beginning of a fresh stage, not the end of the race.”

The loss to Chelli increased criticism of Morrell’s move to 175 pounds. Since moving up from super middleweight in August 2024, Morrell entered 2025 undefeated, but has now lost two of his last three fights since moving up to lithe heavyweight.

Morrell dropped a split decision victory over previously undefeated Imam Khataev last July before losing to David Benavidez and being stopped by Zak Chelli.

Boxing analyst Chris Mannix was among those who suggested Morrell may need to rebuild at super middleweight after the defeat.

The 28-year-old Cuban currently has a record of 12-2 with nine knockouts, having entered 2025 undefeated and viewed as one of the most perilous newborn fighters in boxing.

Terence Crawford trainer BoMac admits one fighter ‘had his number’: “We had to pick it up”

Terence Crawford has faced select top-class players throughout his career, but there was one player who coach Brian “BoMac” McIntyre deemed a real threat to his protégé’s dominance.

As the undisputed champion of three divisions, it’s safe and sound to say that “Bud” never shied away from a formidable challenge, even if it meant putting himself at a significant disadvantage.

His fight with Canelo Alvarez, for example, saw the extraordinary technician move up two weight classes and dethroned the Mexican with a remarkable unanimous decision victory last September.

Similarly, many felt that Crawford was clearly the underdog before us his fight with Errol Spence Jr. in 2023only to score a ruthless ninth-round finish and unify all four major welterweight titles.

But according to longtime head coach “BoMac,” Crawford came closest to his only professional loss in 2019, six years before he retired from the sport.

The American was then defending his WBO welterweight title against Egidijus Kavaliauskas, also known as “Mean Machine”, who was not only undefeated, but also boasted an impressive knockout to victory ratio.

I’m talking to Podcast on the front pageMcIntyre credited Kavaliauskas with forcing Crawford to change his tactics after the third round, when “Bud” jumped out of the ring after being deemed a no-knockdown.

“That motherfucker just kept coming and coming. He didn’t stop. For the first few rounds, he only had Bud’s number because he was punching before Bud and punching after Bud.

“It was like, ‘Damn, dog – you [Crawford] I have to pick it up.”

Ultimately, Crawford managed to secure a ninth-round victory over Kavaliauskas, but he had to dig deep into his tool bag to win. The record-breaking star later said that “Mean Machine” was one of the hardest hits he had ever faced.
