‘Hungry’ Uisma Lima could shock Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis

Tim Bradley warns that Uisma Lima could potentially defeat Jaron “Boots” Ennis this Saturday night in their junior middleweight clash on DAZN. He says Lima (14-1, 10 KO) is “hungry” and is not a “slouch” as some people think he is.

Bradley believes Ennis (34-0, 30 KO) lacks self-confidence, something Karen Chukhadzhian already exposed last year when he felt embarrassed in front of his fans at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.

The threat in Lima is real

“Boots” is risky. He doesn’t believe he’s risky. Look at the guy he’s fighting this weekend. This guy better not beat him. This guy is hungry. This guy is no slouch. He’s ready,” Tim Bradley said in his canal about Jaron “Boots” Ennis’ opponent, Uisma Lima, who poses a threat to him this Saturday.

If Jaron loses against Lima on Saturday, it will thwart his plans for fame. Ennis talked about how he would beat Lima and then go on to win world titles at 154. His promoter, Eddie Hearn, claims he is Terence Crawford’s “replacement.”

Crawford’s comparison

In terms of style, “Boots” has the talent to be better than Crawford. What’s disturbing is how poorly it performs against higher-level rivals. When Terence was 28, he didn’t fight a great opponent either. The two fighters he fought when he was the same age were these guys:

These are journeyman-level players, much weaker than Ennis’ rival, Uisma Lima, from this Saturday. They are no match for ‘Boots’ last two opponents, Eimantas Stanionis and Karen Chukhadzhian.

Many people forget who Crawford fought when he was Ennis’ age. If you’re wondering why Crawford didn’t become a star earlier in his career, it’s because of the tender opponents he faced regularly.

Missed chances in 147

Ennis sabotaged his own career by not choosing to fight Teofimo Lopez, Vergil Ortiz Jr., Devin Haney and Brian Norman Jr. when he had the opportunity. Bradley says “Boots” could also fight Terence Crawford. It’s bad enough that Ennis didn’t fight Vergil Jr.

That alone was a huge mistake on his part, and he made his situation even worse by agreeing to fight Lima instead of one of the notable contenders in his 154 debut.

“We never know what someone is fighting for. Crawford already said that Boots had several opportunities to fight him. And ‘Boots’ said, ‘No, thank you,’ just like he said with everyone else,” Bradley said.

Tim then moved the topic from the Lima fight to Ennis’ rematch with Karen Chukhadzhian last year on November 9, 2024.

Karen put her hands on “Boots”, hit tidy shots, and couldn’t seem to miss anything he threw. Ennis was saved by the fact that Chukhadzyan gassed himself in the championship rounds.

Bradley points out that Karen is not on the same level as Terence Crawford, which few fans would argue against. That night, Crawford would not have stood in the trenches as Chukhadzhian did to talk to Ennis like that. It’s not like him.

Crawford is a mover and that’s why he became a gigantic PPV attraction. He’s still not a pay-per-view attraction, outside of fights with Canelo Alvarez and Errol Spence.
