Stanionis can remove the annoying if it can withstand the power of the boots and to avoid some of the traits of power that throws. The 2016 Olympic is not difficult to hit, and will have to depend on their power game to defeat Ennis.
Jaron has to put in one of the performances he had shown before he encountered Karen Chukhadzhian. Hearn feels that Ennis can do it as long as he is not drained for the fight. He thought that Boots, 27, was better at today’s weight, with him at 146 1/2 pounds.
Eddie warns that boots cannot be rehidated more than 20 pounds because it will be slow and lethargic on Saturday night against Stanionis. Ennis looked quite big before starting their weight in the fight and it would not be surprising to weigh in the 180’s.
“It will have to be special to beat Stanionis tomorrow night. I think Stanionis comes to say goodbye, loaded in the form of his life and you will get a thriller in Atlantic City in Dazn tomorrow night,” said promoter Eddie A Dazn box On the struggle of unification on Saturday between Jaron Ennis and Eimantas Stanionis. “I was surprised to hear yesterday (the Derek coach) Bozy (Ennis) call on the first stop for the boots.”
The latest type Ennis removed at the time was David Avanaean in the fifth round of July. However, this fighter is not at the same level as Stanionis or as a young man. The boots had an easier task against him than on Saturday.
“Stanionis will be aggressive. He will probably make some errors early, and Boots is a fantastic counterpunte and a tremendous IQ,” said Hearn. “As struggle deepens, of course, Stanionis pressure, Stanionis’ engine will cause any problems.”
Ennis fought better in the subsequent rounds against Karen than he had last November. If you can fight like this, it will be too much for Stanionis in the second half of the fight.
“It’s a great game of styles. I see nothing more than a year’s struggle, and that’s exactly what we want,” said Hearn. “We have seen some tremendous fights in Saudi and the cards of Ring Magazine. Now we see another. It is lit in Dazn.
“Tomorrow night, you will get an instant classic and something for pure boxing fans, something for hardcore, something for casual sports fans and something for all of us,” said Hearn.
