Promoter Eddie Hearn says that the unified champion of welterweight Jaron “boots” ennis is “Moving” Until 154. A decision was made after his test team was made, which determined that Ennis (34-0, 30 KO) was worse due to his struggle with an incision of the 147 pounds department. Interrupted the division.

Hearn says that Ennis will fight in August or September, and he is open to the fight between him and the momentary WBC champion of the younger medium scale champion, Vergil Ortiz Jr. If not him, it will be someone else who fights in his debut at the age of 154.

Ennis shoes: 154-punting movement

Hearn says that Ennis was only “50%” for his unification with the WBA Eimantas Stanionis welterweight master on April 12. He thinks that when Jaron moved to 154, he will be 100%and the fans will be able to see if it is better.

“The shoes reach up. Unfortunately, after the fight Stanionis, he had his team, doctors, tests and what they basically say that the shoes are weaker to his abilities,” said Eddie Hearn Warrior. “You saw him during the Fight Week. It requires demanding work [to make 147]. “

Boxing fans have been noticing for some time when Ennis looked emaciated by weight, and they wanted him to move to 154 to take a larger name. In addition, there are no huge names in the welterweight ward. Masters in 147 that shoes must fight to complete their goal, which is unquestioned, would probably require a significant amount of money and it is not worth it.

“It is amazing that he did it Stanionis in 50% of his physical possibilities,” said Hearn. “What his team says and says. Sooner or later I do not say that you will get a moment of Keyshawn, but you can achieve worse results in the ring, have a nightmare, and this will simply catch up with you.”

Hearn seems elated that Ennis is planning to raise weight. Shoes does not make sense to stay at the age of 147 to continue to kill yourself, to earn weight, because she probably will not fight for the title of WBC against the winner of the fight Mario Barrios vs. Manny Pacquiao. Whoever emerges as the winner of this fight will avoid Ennis and focus on defending her against fighters such as Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia or Conor Benn.

“I love the fight Teo, just like shoes. But it was like:” Can I be the best of my skills at the age of 147, “said Hearn. “The answer is:” I can probably win good enough, but not the best I can. ” When you see shoes at the age of 154, you’ll see what I’m talking about. “

It sounds like Ennis was worried about losing to Teofimo. This is surprising, because the way he performed against Stanionis in April last year would be more than enough to defeat Lopez. Even this drained version of Ennis would be too huge for Teofimo.

“So it is very likely that these belts [IBF and WBA welterweight] They will be released – said Hearn. “We will meet this week and make the final decision. But yes, it’s time to go to 154, and he was united at 147. It’s time to try to become a world champion with two divisions.”

If the shoes do not leave their IBF and WBA welterweight titles, he regrets that he did not do it later, because, as I mentioned, he will not have the opportunity to fight for the last two other lanes. Popular fighters, Haney and Ryan Garcia, will not fight him. They know that they will lose.

“They said:” Would you fight Vergil Ortiz in August? “And we said,” Yes. ” And then they returned and said: “Vergil was not ready for August.” I said, “We are elated. We are talking to Daznie at the moment.

If Ortiz Jr. He is not ready to fight Ennis in August, he should go after the master Ibf Bakhram Murtazaliev or Master WBC Sebastian Formella.

“We want to be involved in all the biggest fights. Of course, he wants to win the world championship title and there is a good chance that Vergil can end up at this championship. Yes, yes, all for all the great fights with real physically 100% Ennis shoes, which is a terrifying proposition, given the performance he gave against Stanionis,” said Hearn.

“And as far as his skills go, I think he’s just one step away from being perfect. He does everything well,” Keyshawn said. “He doesn’t have anything great in his arsenal. Everything is just fine. That’s good. That’s good. That’s good. Which makes him a good fighter. But he’s just not among the elite of the elite.”

The comments came during an appearance on the “What’s Up That Podcast,” where Davis spent much of the interview discussing Haney, Gervonta Davis, Shakur Stevenson and the effects of losing weight following his canceled fight with Edwin De Los Santos last year.

Keyshawn said he approached Bill Haney earlier this year about making this fight happen, but he believes the other side has gone serene since then.

“You may have seen this video before. Me and Shakur walked up to Bill at the weigh-in for the last fight in January. Long story brief, I thought, ‘Hey, we’re going to fight this year, right?’ He said, ‘Man, mind your own business.’ I said, “I’ll mind my own business.” Will we fight this year? He said, “Just keep your word after the fight.”

Davis then said:

“Why don’t I fight Devin now after the fight? If you want to call it a duck, call it a duck.”

He also asked if Haney has looked the same since his loss to Ryan Garcia.

“Don’t you think he’s the same? The world doesn’t think he’s the same.”

Still, Davis acknowledged that Haney showed toughness by continuing to get up during the Garcia fight.

“I have a lot of respect for him as a player. Fuck, it’s not basic to come back from that.”

The interview moved on to several possible future fights, including fights with Haney, Conor Benn, Tank Davis, and even boxing events with influential people. Keyshawn has repeatedly said he wants the biggest fights available and claimed fans are already demanding a tougher pushback against him.

When his long-awaited fight with Terence Crawford took place in July 2023, he brought three of his four world titles to the table, but would be dominated and stopped by “Bud”.

‘The Truth’ has not fought since then, but his return to fight Australian Tim Tszyu has now been officially announced as the Long Island-born southpaw looks to prove he still has a lot to offer.

Although talking to Main eventSpence revealed that after the devastating loss to Crawford, he considered retiring, but now believes that the inactivity has been good for him.

“I’ve definitely thought about retiring, but I feel rejuvenated. This long break has definitely helped me physically, it’s definitely helped me mentally and I’m ready to show everyone what I’ve done.” I stayed because I’m sure there are many doubters.

“A lot of people will say ‘oh he’ll be a shell’ or ‘he can’t come back’ but they always say that, eye injury, they said the same thing, car accident, they said the same thing, they’ll keep saying the same thing and they’re just adding fuel to the fire.”

Tszyu-Spence will take place on July 25 in Australia.
