Comments Thread For: Jaron Ennis: "I Feel Like I'm Not A Co-Main Fighter Anymore"

I thought Stanionis was a PBC fighter because he was on Twitter complaining about inactivity a few months ago.

He is, which is why I said, "You won't see Boots vs. Stanionis on a GBP card, on DAZN."

Who said he didn't? They were going to fight, until GBP pressured the WBA to let Ortiz Jr. fight Stanionis! Ennis is not afraid of anyone @ 147!

Yes he is. He fears Boogyman Bud. He was next in line with the WBO. Why'd your boy go the IBF route?

Team Stanionis probably couldn't even believe he ended up fighting Ortiz with people they didn't want to deal with. He was available for five long months for Ennis to cherrypick and no offers were made from the Ennis team.

Clearly, Stanioni's promoter and PBC ally Richard Schaefer wanted him on Showtime. Stanionis even filed a petition for his WBA Eroll Spence shot. Strangely enough, that's the only time Ennis filed his own for the IBF.

Five months after Stanionis' last fight with Butaev, Vergil Ortiz made a quick move and filed a petition for his shot at Stanionis WBA regular title.

It does appear Team Ennis has this dilly dallying attitude and can't decide which path to take on Jaron Boots' career. They're thinking and planning too much.

Less than a handful complain about inactivity in boxing. Stanionis is one of them. The rest loves taking long layoffs.

True. Sadly.

Spence is the #1 @ 147. Spence has 3 belts. Spence fights on the same platform. That's an easy choice! Why did "Boogeyman" choose David Avanesyan?

[JakeTheBoxer]

Another overrated guy that never fought anybody good.

Ennis can be a headliner when he starts fighting other Champions.

[brettWall]

He could well be the next Sugar Ray Leonard. But how will we ever know if he's not fighting and all he does is wait?

He could well be, but where's the beef? He can't even take a stay-busy fight like he did in the early stages of his boxing career. Eight to nine fights in two of those years
