Ennis (33-0, 29 KO) has the IBF welterweight title and follows the WBA belt, in which Eimantas Stanionis on Saturday, April 12, at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, Recent Jersey. Last year, 27 -year -old Jaron lost the opportunity to receive the WBO title from Brian Norman Jr., when his promoter Eddie Hearn from Matchroom did not negotiate the contract.
$ 1.7 million, which Hearn offered to Norman Jr., was rejected because he wanted an raise of $ 500,000 to bring him to $ 2.2 million. 500k, which Norman Jr. wanted, was considered too steep. If these are the types of problems that Ennis will deal with in his attempts to capture all belts in 147, 154. 160 and 168.
Hearna’s investment
It just won’t happen. Hearn has to invest in Ennis shoes as his flagship warrior, Anthony Joshua, would be. It hasn’t been happening so far. Ennis may need to reduce professional goals and focus on defeating the best guys he can under his restricted promotional structure. If he was called Anthony Joshua, it would be different.
“I was thinking about it, but this is not my goal. I don’t care if I am 49-0. If I retire at the age of 49, as long as I achieve what I achieve in this boxing game in this boxing game and I am a multi-functional division and I fought with the best guys who had lanes, in order from 49-0. Jaron. Sports media YSM Asked if his goal is to try to cross the Floyd Mayweather 50-0 record.
It is wise that Ennis does not think about beating the Mayweather 50-0 album, because it is superficial rubbish. The Mayweather Record is contaminated and false because of his controversial victories over Jose Luis Castillo and Marcos Maidana during their first fights. The judges released Floyd, giving him the victory of many boxing fans believes that he did not deserve it.
Record 50. Mayweather’s victory was against the former UFC Conor McGregor Master, who debuted in boxing with a 0-0 record. The Mayweather record should have a star Next to it, along with a footnote describing the conditions in which he set him.
The State Sports Commission Nevada should probably never sanction the Mayweather vs. McGregor as a professional fight. It looked bad when the novice fights with Floyd to break the Rocky Marciano 49-0 Record.
Can you imagine a behind schedule, great marciano who wants to fight a non-boxer to beat the album? Mayweather leaned to the lowest level, pulling this movement instead of participating in Keith Thurman, who was still fighting and would be a nightmare for him.
ENNIS focus
“As long as I achieve my goals and overcome all the guys I want to overcome, that’s all that counts me,” Ennis continued. “Temping my sign at 147. Bet my trace on 154, 60 or maybe 168,” said Boots when he was asked what his goals were before retiring. Try to be undisputed in all these weight classes. So it’s 147, 154, 160 and 168. So a four -time master of the undisputed weight master. “
Tim Tszyu seeks to become Australia’s third multi-divisional boxing world champion when he competes for Erislandy Lara’s WBA middleweight title next month, and ahead of the action, trainer Robert Garcia has offered his thoughts on the fight.
Tszyu lost his WBO super-welterweight title in a defeat to Sebastian Fundora back in 2024 and twice failed to reclaim 154lb honours, both against Bakhram Murtazaliev and in a rematch with Fundora.
Since then, the Aussie has stepped up to middleweight and scored a career-best win over Errol Spence Jr earlier this yearand now, the 32-year-old could join lead trainer Jeff Fenech and Liam Paro as his nation’s third two-weight world champion, if he can trump 43-year-old.
Speaking with ProBox TVRobert Garcia, who trains a potential future Tszyu opponent in Vergil Ortiz, admitted that he is leaning towards the home fighter, but noted that Lara will not be phased by competing in the challenger’s backyard.
“We can probably lean towards Tim Tsyzu because he is fighting at home, in front of his hometown, but Lara is not the fighter that brings in a lot of fans following him.
“He doesn’t have a following, he is not one that is going to sell out arenas, so even if it is in the United States, it is likely that most of the people are going to be [there] for Tim Tszyu because Australians do travel and Tim Tszyu has a lot of fans.
“For Lara, going to Australia is like going to Las Vegas or going to New York because he never has that following anyways. Anywhere he goes, he is going to be against the crowd. So, I think for him it is going to be one of those performances where it doesn’t make a difference if he is going to Tim Tsyzu’s hometown.”
Tszyu-Lara takes place at the Cbus Super Stadium in Queensland, Australia on Sunday 13 December.
Deontay Wilder’s former head coach Malik Scott has delivered a knockout prediction for the American’s upcoming showdown with Jai Opetaia.
The pair will square off at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on December 11, with Opetaia making his heavyweight debut on the undercard of Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua.
Despite him being the naturally smaller man, many are favouring the Australian – a former two-time world cruiserweight champion – to defeat his 10-years-older opponent.
It is, after all, generally accepted that Wilder has declined significantly since his trilogy bout with Furywho survived two knockdowns and scored an 11th-round knockout in their 2021 encounter.
Back then, Wilder had just joined forces with Scott, his former opponent, and the pair maintained their fighter-trainer relationship through subsequent defeats against Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang.
With Wilder now operating under different coaches, though, Scott has shared a balanced view of the Opetaia fight with Seconds Out.
“The fight’s got dynamite written all over it. Jai Opetaia is very dangerous, but he’s a smaller man that’s been hurt by smaller men than Deontay, slower men than Deontay.
“I’ve never seen Opetaia get hit by nobody like Deontay; I’ve seen Deontay get hit by bigger punchers than Opetaia. [But] one thing we can expect in this fight is a knockout.
“The name of the fight is ‘bad intentions’ – at least that’s what I’m calling it, because that’s what they share in common. What they share in common is mentality – they both are trying to hurt you.”
While he stopped short of predicting a winner, it is perhaps telling that Scott, despite his relationship with Wilder, has not explicitly favoured him to win by knockout.
