Jaron Ennis vs Karen Chukhadzhain - DAZN

Boozy Annis isn't a very good trainer.

Why can't they give Karen some credit instead of making excuses?
Too much holding but he fought a very good fight and showed a lot of qualities.

I hate they keep acting like he is some low level fighter or a bum, he absolutely isn't.
Not saying he is p4p or anything of the sort but he's a decent fighter and would give just about any Welterweight fits with his style.


Reality is Karen learned from the first fight, Boots learned sweet FA because is surrounded by yes men.

Competitive & fun. I think Karen is a very good fighter, really good footwork in particular and tough as old boots. I'd like to see him take Benn to school.

Boots appears to have a granite chin but he has some horrible defensive tendencies. As much as he rolls and takes the heat off shots he has a lot of bad habits standing too tall in the pocket, pulling out too high and generally not protecting the right side of his face. I am not high on him at all and think Boots has infinite times more talent but I feel even a Ryan Garcia would pose a real risk to Boots unless he tightens up.

Unless Ryan sparks Boots very y quickly, I think it would be a terrible bet down. Garcia just isn't very sturdy and he's a mental midget.

We clearly missed a lot during the broadcast because Boots reiterated the advise he got in his post-fight interview and there was more substance than "take em out of there".

I agree. In fact I think Karen is much better than a "decent" fighter. He showed all kinds of skill in there tonight.

[PBR Streetgang]

No doubt!

I will admit that I was wrong. Karen came to fight tonight and gave a good account of himself. He combined his slickness with some crafty punching. He caught Boots clean all night and even buzzed hima few times. No shame for the Ukrainian.

The way Boots was eating left hooks like it's part of his diet, I also think he would make Ryan's job easier but he should still overpower him.

[PBR Streetgang]

Is Ennis OK? He isn't having a meltdown like AJ or Lopez but he seems dejected.

I think he was a bit embarrassed. Boots won the fight but Karen humbled him a bit. The Ukrainian was using angles, counters and timing to land clean throughout. His old man didn't seem to understand that the opponent came to fight and was tryna ng to win until the final bell.

Something I failed to recognize till tonight - Ennis has absolutely zero defense. I don't know how long it has been since a top welterweight had zero defense but it has been a long time! If he turned into a Butterfly and flew into a dark auditorium, he would still not be able to miss a punch!
