For weeks, Jaron “Boots” Ennis had been preparing to overcome a no-win situation. Ignoring the sighs of the fans who were equally annoyed With him having to endure what will happen. He would have considered how to make the best of a less than ideal situation. and how to defeat an opponent like Karen Chukadzian in a different and improved way from before. Of course, last time Ennis defeated Chukhadzhian by unanimous decision, winning every round, which means the only way to improve the result was to stop Chukhadzhian in a rematch.
This Ennis tried to do on Saturday at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. He tried to do it in round one. Once he attacked Chukhadzhian with an urgency that he lacked in one battle. And he tried to do it in every 11 rounds that followed. Not only that, Chukhadzhian, sensing Ennis’s urgency, soon tried to stop his own attack. They often stung during the fierce attacks of the Americans. and forced him to start attacking again. If you don’t think again
Because of this dynamic Their fight was a huge improvement from nearly two years ago. That night, Chukhadzhian seemed unwilling to take part and almost daunted by the prospect. While this time he detected it early. of Ennis’ carelessness and tried to use this to his advantage, for example in round one He threw the favorite off balance with his right hand to the side of his head. He then caught Ennis again moments after his injury. He realized that the IBF welterweight champion was being taken away and risked reprisals.
Ennis clearly wants to make an impression and make a statement. He took risks that fighters usually take only after a certain victory – if not in that way – and he put himself in danger in the hope that Chukhadzhian would open up and offer him the opportunity to get the victory he wanted. Orthodox at first Ennis would eventually switch to southpaw in the third round. After a while, he found himself being caught by Chu Kadjian’s right hand more regularly. In fact, by round 5, the Philadelphia crowd, which had all been supporting Ennis, was somewhat subdued. Their silence hinted at Chukhadzhian’s growing presence in the fight. It was in the fifth round that Ennis had his greatest moment. Catching Chukhadchian with a short left shot that staggered the Ukrainian and ultimately brought him to his knees. There was a minute left in the round and Ennis finally broke through. Now it seemed only a matter of time before he achieved the results he both wanted and needed.
On the other hand, when Chukhadzhian was brave enough to carry on and Ennis was desperate enough to give him hope. The battle then began to turn back and forth in the second half. In the eighth round they traded freely and Chukhadzhian, growing more confident, used his right hand again between shots from Ennis, then he landed even bigger rights. The short one was on the inside in lap 10, which Ennis did well.
By the 12th round, we saw that Chukhadzhian was not only warming up. But he still believes he can turn the tables and win the fight. He managed to land an impressive combination halfway through the round. which can shake Ennis’ head away And it made him want to tie Chukhadzhian up. It was Chukhadzhian as well who finished the fight from above. Pick and land better punches as the clock ticks down.
There’s never been a feeling quite like Ennis’s. lose fight; He’s the busier one. A person who is mostly in control. and is the man responsible for most of the eye-catching punches. But the battle was undoubtedly closer than the first encounter. And among the fighters involved was Chukhadzhian who showed great improvement from fight one to fight two. In fact, one might argue that by virtue of Chukhadzhian improving and doing better in return. There is an inclination to despise Ennis or judge him harshly for not winning more definitively – or definitely. end – Very few fights show interest in seeing in the first place. Ignoring his overall indifference to the fight could also be detrimental to Ennis’ performance. In the end Finding the motivation to do something you’ve (a) done before and (b) been led to believe no one wants to see is no easy feat. Make no mistake, it’s not a competitive race. Is it appropriate or demanding? (by anyone but the IBF) and Ennis, now 33-0 (29), probably already knows. If you can focus fully and be scared in the right amount. He will be stronger and better than others.
It’s more likely that Ennis will go into Saturday’s title defense knowing the challenge will be to finish Chukhadzhian rather than just beat him. (Which is likely the target of the fight.) This might explain Ennis’ urgency and aggression, and why Chukhadzhian, now 24-3 (13), was able to exploit holes in Ennis’ defense. In these times of urgency and aggression, for Ennis, you see, winning isn’t enough. In fact, winning is what he has in mind. And now to do better than win, he needed to risk losing. Whether it’s a battle or a little bit of his fame and fame.
When it appears It was the latter for which he sacrificed more than the former. Desired results, you might say. Moreover, Boxing history also suggests that subpar performance can sometimes be a fighter’s most important performance. This is especially true when looking for bigger fights against big name fighters who might choose to go a different route – someone like Terrence Crawford, for example, is the guy at Ennis. And his team has been aiming for this for some time. But recent form appears to be definitely superior to Ennis in terms of experience and defence. If this was just a suspicion before Ennis’ fight with Chukhadzhian, then perhaps Crawford and his supporters now feel they have enough proof of the differences between them to give the green light to the fight. Fight and let it happen next year.
There will be other wrestlers. That also looks at Ennis’ latest victory in the same way. They could see the punches he took. And the round he threw and saw an opportunity to beat and dethrone him in the future.
But after all, what is protection if not fear of what will come back at you? It may not be fear in the purest sense. Because every boxer claims to have no fear. But boxers definitely need to feel something to protect themselves properly and ensure that they are as close to perfection as possible. Without that feeling, one is more likely to take chances, punch, and overlook things, yes, even in the boxing ring.
“When you fight with lower level people. Sometimes you just can’t stand up to them,” Ennis said after Saturday’s fight. “When I fought with the top guys. I will be much better I want top people.”
Either you think Terence Crawford is the perfect next opponent for Jaron Ennis or you’ve gone too far. One thing is certain about everything: He will give to Jaron Ennis what Errol Spence did to Terence Crawford last year. In other words He would give him the little fear he needed right now. His lack of fear for Karen Chukhadzhian and David Avanesyan before that wasn’t enough to have him shaking in his boots. But having Ennis pull on his socks and make sure he has boots on is enough.
