American welterweight Jaron Ennis (30-0, 27 KOs) is eager to quickly exchange his temporary belt for a full-fledged one. It doesn’t matter to him which of his star compatriots to enter the ring – he is ready to fight with WBO champion Terence Crawford (39-0, 30 KOs) or with the owner of all other division belts Errol Spence (28-0, 22 KOs).
Ukrainian Karen Chukhadzhyan (21-2, 11 KOs) failed to stop Ennis, lost by a crushing decision. O
rival: “He hits really hard. I felt the force of his blows. I can’t say that I was shocked, but his fists are very heavy. It is for this reason that I did not stop even for a second. After all, if your opponent has such heavy fists, then the only thing he needs from you is for you to finally stop.
Chukhajian assessed Ennis’s chances against Spence and Crawford: “I think he’ll have a better chance with Errol. After all, he himself is not averse to hacking himself. But with Crawford it will be more difficult. But also much more interesting. I would love to see Crawford vs Ennis. I hope it will take place and I will see it.”
Chukhadzhyan dreams of performing again in the USA: “I want to show everyone that I can do more than just defend myself. I hope I will have a chance to show the fans attacking boxing – that is, one that they will definitely like.
In the same interview, Chukhadzhyan talked about who is still cooler – Ennis or Ortiz? The American top coach has already made his choice: Karen gave Ennis a hard time, Ortiz will beat him.
