Crystal Ball: Stanionis ignores the team’s advice: Looks like killing false American boogeyman buts ennis

By Frank Bay: Eimantas Stanionis is fearless and does not buy the noise of Jaron “Boots” Ennis. Why would he? If he was Eimantas Sandavol from Jalisco in Mexico, instead of Stanionis from Lithuania, this fight could compete on the legendary night by Julio Cesar Chavez vs. Meldrick Taylor in terms of noise and commercial noise. But Stanionis is little known, inactive Eastern Europe, without significant victories in its CV, which was given an e-mail belt.

Ennis also received his belt and is currently produced by the former Hype Showtime/PBC without significant names in his CV in over 30 fights. At some point, the claim of Ennis to Sława is the pretender Errola Spence and Crawford, who traversing the comma, when Crawford allowed himself to deprive his title, not to face him.

It is possible to argue whether Crawford has diluted Ennis or not. The truth is that none of Ennis’s noise is based on the ring. His most significant win is perhaps Willa Roiman. Villa is known for defeating the former pretender to Hype Fringe, Rashidi Ellis. The whole noise of Ennis is based on the narrative that other fighters pierce it. None of them is based and is not only speculated by its minimum fans base. One thing that Ennis has for him is that he is a philly warrior. Being a warrior Philly has some charm among boxing fans. Actual or imagined, this is a story that can be sold.

Although it should be the main boxing event, unfortunately it is not. Stanionis is a virtual unknown Eastern Europe, and Jaron Ennis has a mop’s personality and charisma. Without slightly ennis; All he wants to do is focus on boxing. This is good, but the possibility of selling, especially in boxing, is a necessary ingredient. Do not look further than Ryan Garcia, if you want to know why it matters.

I hear the overthrow now, but what about Crawford? Somehow, the bud is less nice than Ennis, and he is a boxing star, speaking relatively. My answer to this is he really? Crawford has the personality and charisma of the cake. And that’s why it took him 15 years to become even a name in boxing.

Before defeating Spence Crawford, he could also play football. What about Canelo Alvarez? Mr. Charisma is not exactly and he barely speaks English. And I say that Alvarez has the whole country behind it in the same way as Pacquiao and Hatton. The reality is that America is trying to find and build another golden boy or “Money” Mayweather, because they no longer support boxing, as in previous eras.

Boxing is behind darts on television. Therefore, boxers must understand this and go beyond independent marketing. Hire an acting trainer or hearing a dancing with the stars, just like former fighters did. Or even better, make friends with Jake Paul, as David Benavidez was wise enough. But you have to start trends.

Winners and losers

As for talent, based solely on the eye test, Ennis and Stanionis are the peak of their class. This may not say much, because once Glamor Leonardo, de la Hoya, Mayweather and Trinidad, currently a welterweight, has Mario Barrios as the biggest name. Barrios is known only for the breakthrough of Davis’s featherlight tank, and then move to get the E -Mail 147 strap. Currently 147 is a sterile landscape. To unite this again, we get the union of E -Mail masters.

Ennis reportedly rejected a huge control from Turk Ali to face Vergil Ortiz, because he said he had signed a contract with Eddie Hearn that his goal was to become the undisputed champion of 147. This could be the wise game of Ennis, or a huge error defining a career.

If Ennis defeats Stanionis, he becomes a 147-line ring champion. This is a historical achievement. I am not sure how much recognition will receive from critics and fans, because Stanionis is largely unverified. Ennis naively believes that defeating Stanionis will automatically make him a P4P warrior.

I think this is a bit of delusion on the part of Ennis. It seems that we, fans, do not really know boxing and you can not see that they are both Masters of E -Mail. On the other hand, Devin Haney is still in the P4P rankings of critics, so it may not be so much.

Now for the huge ones, but, but if Ennis makes a loss, this may be the worst decision he made since the entire career of the misfortune of Demetrius Andrade. I would doubt that Ennis could affect the loss to Stanionis. The loss would only strengthen the knocking of people.

This would confirm that he was noise. Crawford would be released and he could indicate and say “it was the guy that you said I was open.” By making social media will be next. He could end up like a hamed after he was revealed. You can never see again. Although this is drastic, this happens when the warrior and his fans buy noise and mean Boogeyman.

Claiming that they are the most avoided boxing warrior. In this way, Ennis built his name. Therefore, a loss of death would be a loss. Ennis does not seem to be ready to return to the drawing board and rebuild the fight for peanuts. In addition, he would still be too good for other names to give him an opportunity if they don’t have to.

This is a problem with making an unsuccessful attempt to fight Norman Jr so publicly deafening. Now the loss of one man and the other can indicate and say that it was not like that. Mayweather was able to employ this tactic throughout his entire career.

Whenever the warrior was mentioned as a threat to him, he lost. He pointed out and said: “Oh, he is a guy you said, he can overcome me that he just lost and so, allowing him to avoid such fighters through his entire career

No, Ennis must win and win in an impressive way to raise his profile and silence critics. Something less than a spectacular victory will be for nothing. Doubts will have their own cake. Stanionis is very good, but he should not win this fight. He is the only best warrior who took the opportunity to face the self -proclaimed Boogeyman.

In an interview, Stanionis stated that he had been fighting the advice of his guardians. His team did not feel that he was getting an sincere offer. They told him that the money was not suitable for such a grave struggle of unification. Stanionis told his team to make it happen anyway.

He will have all the chances that were set against him on the night of the fight. It will be a road team fighting on the ennis pitch. He will not have his wife at his side and miss the birth of his first child. Stanionis is weaker.

Run or not run

In terms of style, it’s a classic duel. Ennis transfer between boxer and boxer-puncher. He has power in both hands, and his chin is decent, but not great. We see talent, but we didn’t see him test. In Ennis, I don’t like the excuse that he is profuse for his impoverished fights. His excuse for the average towards Karen was a very doubtful statement that he was not properly motivated.

For my life, someone should have warned him that saying something like aterans. Receiving a payment of millions of dollars, fighting in front of the hometown for the title, and your answer is a lack of motivation. The correct answer would be that I have a lot to do. But the real answer should have been a bit overrated. There can be no such excuse against Stanionis. Stanionis will be there to bring it. He is your classic boxer.

Stanionis tries to literally break his opponents. He doesn’t look at the box or madness around the ring with a protruding tongue and looking charming. He is not a frill. He has decent to good power. His chin seems to be above the average, but to tell the truth, we cannot say for sure, because his opposition was very mediocre. Stanionis is there to be hit, but it’s because he doesn’t mind. He wants to put pressure on his opponent every minute of each round. He works on the head and the body, swearing to kill Ennis’s torso all night.

Ennis will have advantages of size, speed and athleticism. The power should be annulled because both can hurt. This should do it with an early affair. The direct path of Ennis to victory is that he is an applicant. He will want to constantly move Stanionis, making him raise his feet when he tries to load the bodies.

Ennis will have to be careful that he was an applicant, not a runner. This will negatively affect judges and viewers. Ennis knows that he has to sit and fight at least in the grooves to get the crowd.

This should not be if things are fair, but they are not and Stanionis will probably need a knockout to get a victory. I am not saying that he cannot win a decision, but if it is close, he should not expect that they will give him a fight. If it is a very close fight, Ennis will receive a decision in his hometown.

HEALTHY FIGHT

It should be honestly a greater fight than today, but it’s boxing. Both men say little and had long sections of inactivity. What we can expect is a good fight. This fight will answer many questions for both fans and critics. Is Ennis as good as advertised?

If Stanionis were to upset, could he become a star? If Ennis is nervous, do we question the validity of shiny records and still believe in Boogemen fairy tales in boxing? Will Eastern Europeans realize in the United States?

If Ennis receives a spectacular win, does it make him a superstar, and does he get huge names? The only answer I can come up with now is that I have the impression that we will see something unexpected. This has a classic production. I follow the weaker because I tend to root for the weaker and I don’t believe in Boogememen. However, I must say that American boxing needs this win in the worst way.

Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua Set for World Heavyweight Title Showdown

Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua Set for World Heavyweight Title Showdown

The stakes have now been raised ahead of the blockbuster Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua showdown.

It was finally officially confirmed today that the two men will meet at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Friday 11 December, with the event broadcast live on Netflix.

It sees the British stars collide having first been linked to a battle with one another over a decade ago, when they both held versions of the world heavyweight title.

It’s been several years since both men were world champions, with Fury losing his WBC heavyweight title to Oleksandr Usyk back in May 2024while Joshua also lost his unified WBA, IBF and WBO belts against the Ukrainian back in September 2021.

Usyk went on to become undisputed heavyweight champion but no longer holds any of the belts after vacating his remaining titles earlier this year, and it seems that Fury and Joshua are going to benefit from that decision.

That is because it has been reported by The Ring’s Mike Coppinger that the vacant WBA ‘Super’ title is set to be on the line in the Fury vs. Joshua fight.

“Breaking: Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will fight for the WBA ‘super’ heavyweight title, @ringmagazine has learned. Fury and AJ will both be looking to regain a heavyweight title. Usyk remains The Ring champ while Murat Gassiev is the current holder of the WBA’s ‘regular’ heavyweight title.”

Murat Gassiev became WBA Regular champion with a knockout win over Kubrat Pulev in December, before making a defence of that title against Peter Kadiru in July.

It was initially believed that the WBA had elevated him to full champion after Usyk vacated the belt, but it appears Gassiev will now have to play second fiddle to the Fury vs. Joshua victor.

Joshua vs Fury Confirmed for December 11 in Cardiff on Netflix

"Joshua vs Fury Confirmed for December 11 in Cardiff on Netflix"

Principality Stadium secures the British heavyweight fight, with a London press conference next week and the undercard to follow.

Anthony Joshua (30-4, 27 KOs) and Tyson Fury (36-2-1, 25 KOs) will fight at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on Friday, December 11. Netflix will broadcast the full event exclusively after organizers secured a British venue for the heavyweights’ first professional meeting.

Turki Alalshikh announced the fight, and Joshua and Fury are scheduled to attend a London press conference next week. The supporting card will be announced later; no undercard opponents were named in the supplied announcement.

The December date replaces the November plan discussed earlier in negotiations. Wembley had been Joshua’s preferred destination, but Cardiff secured the event following talks over whether the fight would remain in Britain or move to the United States.

Joshua and promoter Eddie Hearn insisted on a UK venue. His contract included that requirement, and their position held despite discussions involving New York, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

Dana White said: “For more than a decade, boxing fans have been clamoring for the heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua. Together, they bring 66 wins, 52 knockouts and multiple heavyweight world titles into the ring. On December 11, two of the biggest heavyweights of this generation finally collide and the winner will take a significant place in heavyweight history.”

Netflix to broadcast the full Cardiff card

Netflix’s preference for an evening American broadcast drove the push to stage the fight across the Atlantic. Madison Square Garden emerged as the leading US option before negotiations returned to Britain.

Cardiff keeps the contest on British soil, with a late opening bell expected to accommodate viewers in the United States.

The main event is expected around 1 a.m. UK timealthough the exact time has not been confirmed. If that schedule holds. A 1 a.m. GMT start would put the main event at 8 p.m. ET on Friday, December 11 for viewers on America’s east coast.

The fight is expected to take place beneath Principality Stadium’s retractable roof.

London press conference scheduled for next week

Alalshikh welcomed the agreement after months of negotiations over the event.

“Two of the best heavyweights of this generation, finally in the ring together. This will be one of the biggest fights in boxing history, I am very happy to make this fight happen for the fans,” he said.

Joshua and Fury previously signed a two-fight agreement in 2021. That booking collapsed after an arbitration ruling required Fury to face Deontay Wilder again.

Their December meeting now has a confirmed date, venue and broadcaster. Next week’s press conference will bring both fighters to London, with the remaining card and precise event timetable still to follow.

Manny Pacquiao and Shakur Stevenson Discuss Potential Fight in Cardiff

"Manny Pacquiao and Shakur Stevenson Discuss Potential Fight in Cardiff"

Manny Pacquiao against Shakur Stevenson remains under discussion for the proposed Anthony Joshua-Tyson Fury card in Cardiff. It would give the event a second major fight, but neither Pacquiao nor Stevenson has received a bout agreement.

BoxingScene’s Lance Pugmire reports that two people connected to the talks say Netflix wants the matchup as part of a “double main event.” December 11 is the date under consideration at Principality Stadium, with December 18 also possible. Pacquiao adviser Jas Mathur told BoxingScene that Pacquiao’s financial terms are still being negotiated.

That leaves a great deal to settle before anyone can call this a fight. The Cardiff show itself has yet to be formally announced, and moving Joshua-Fury from the previously discussed Madison Square Garden setting means assembling the rest of the card around a different venue and date.

Pacquiao-Stevenson would bring two very different attractions to that card. Stevenson, 29, is coming off his January win over Teofimo Lopez and has since signed with Zuffa Boxing. Pacquiao, 47, drew with Mario Barrios in his July 2025 return. His name would draw attention far beyond the usual boxing audience, though the long layoff and age difference would become part of the conversation as soon as the fight was announced.

The proposed pairing also raises a practical question: what weight would they fight at? Pacquiao’s return came at welterweight, while Stevenson’s recent work has been at lighter weights. No weight, number of rounds, or title terms have been announced.

For now, the news is that Pacquiao-Stevenson has survived the reported switch to Cardiff and remains in Netflix’s plans, according to BoxingScene. The decisive development would be agreements reaching both fighters. Until then, it belongs on the list of fights being negotiated, rather than the Joshua-Fury undercard.

Pacquiao turns 48 on December 17. If the fight lands on December 18, Shakur would face him one day after his birthday. Pacquiao won his first world title in 1998, before Shakur turned two.

That age difference makes the matchup a hard sell as a competitive fight. If Shakur wins easily, how much credit does he get for beating a man nearly two decades older? If he boxes his way to a quiet decision, Pacquiao’s name may bring viewers to Netflix, but the fight may give them little reason to watch Shakur again.

Pacquiao’s fame can make this a major event. Turning it into a fight that helps Shakur is another matter. First, both men need to agree to terms; neither has received a bout agreement.
