Comments Thread For: Jaron Ennis wants unification after 'beating up' Karen Chukhadzhian

Why did he sign with Matchroom if he wanted unification?

Great fight- IBF e-mail champion vs resume strengthening rematch opponent showing up for a check.. question is…. How does the ref stay awake during instructions?

Sometimes, you have to take on challenging jobs so refs can make a living too. They are professional enough (I think) to be capable of pinching their face hidden from the camera, and I'm sure energy drinks are not banned for refs to drink mid-match.

boots is going to be chasing karen around the ring like he wants to put a ring on her finger

if i was boots i would want to stay at 147 and do all i can, turki tried to make bud boots but bud only had eyes for canelo & that is not looking so hot at the moment, bud boots was the fight to make & turki would have paid very well for it too, shame

No money at 147. Even a bud fight would be at 154.

Teo, Haney, Ryan will all hit 147 in 2025 and none of them will go the boots route.

Boots best bet is 154 where there are limitless fights for him.

Bud
Ortiz
Fundora
Bakhram
Madrimov
Jermell
Errol
Tszyu
Lubin

I like Ennis but I’m not sure if he’s that guy or just the talent pool is just that bad

In 2028, Boots will still be at 147 saying the same sht. He's too low IQ and clueless to realize that his prime years are now and he needs to maximize his earnings potential in a division that offers in-demand fights, and that's not 147.

So sad to see talented fighters so willing to languish is shallow ponds.

If Boots looks disjointed against Chakhudzian again, his stock will take a major hit, and approaching 30, that's not good.

BOOM! I asked a certain Boots water boy the same thing, and instead of answering the question, he deflected. The Boots fans have a hard time processing the fact that their guy seems strangely allergic to true competition. The work is at 154, not 147.

Ennis is big for 147, there's no money in it and nobody really wants to fight him. I know I'm in the minority but.....I would love to see Ennis step up and fight Bakhram Murtazaliev. I know, it sounds crazy but Ennis has the size, speed, foot work and strength to stay with Murtazaliev and style beat him.

I think you have hit the nail on the head. Physically he is talented and he looks the goods, even though he hasn't fought anybody yet to prove it. If he fought Ortiz I even think he would beat him, maybe even stop him. He would probably give Bud the most competitive fight of anyone out there. He looks the part, BUT it seems there are a few marbles missing in the IQ department, which is why he is not getting any of the big fights. If he does not take Turki's offer and fight Vergil at 154, he deserves everything that he gets by staying at 147.
