Ennis Boxing Analysis
Jaron “Boots” Ennis (33-0, 29 KOs) is already being talked about as a future face of the welterweight division. A switch-hitter from Philly, Ennis combines elite hand speed with serious knockout power and sharp footwork.
He earned the interim IBF title with a dominant win over Karen Chukhadzhian in early 2023, then moved up to full champion status later that year. Since then, he’s defended his title three times, including a second win over Chukhadzhian last November.
At 27, he’s often compared to a young Roy Jones Jr. — flashy, powerful, and always dangerous. Some critics say he’s a bit too willing to trade at times, but his skill set is hard to deny.
For Ennis, the key to this fight is discipline. He needs to use his jab, manage the distance, and catch Stanionis coming in with clean, sharp combinations. If he avoids unnecessary brawling, his talent should take over.
Stanionis Boxing Analysis
Eimantas Stanionis (15-0, 9 KOs) has made a name for himself with grit and relentless pressure. The Lithuanian turned pro in 2017 after a strong amateur run that included the 2016 Olympics. He captured the WBA “regular” title with a hard-fought split decision win over Radzhab Butaev in 2022.
After a long layoff, he returned in 2024 with a solid victory over Gabriel Maestre. With Terence Crawford moving up in weight, Stanionis was elevated to full WBA champ.
He’s not a flashy fighter, but he’s tough and smart. Stanionis thrives on cutting off the ring, pushing forward, and breaking opponents down with steady jabs and body work.
To beat Ennis, Stanionis will need to bring the fight inside and stay there. The more physical and uncomfortable the fight becomes, the better his chances.
Ennis vs Stanionis Tale of the Tape
Ennis vs Stanionis Prediction
Stanionis is tough and technically sound, no doubt. But Ennis has the edge in nearly every key area — speed, power, reach, and versatility.
Even if this turns into a close-range fight, Ennis has shown he can handle himself inside. His superior movement and timing should help him avoid most of Stanionis’ pressure while landing the cleaner, more damaging shots.
Expect Ennis to take control early behind the jab, slowly ramp up the pace, and pull away as the rounds go on. Stanionis is durable, so this likely goes the distance, but it should be a clear win on the cards for “Boots.”
A late stoppage isn’t out of the question, especially if Stanionis slows down, but the safer bet is on a wide decision win.
Ennis vs Stanionis Pick:
- Ennis wins by decision or technical decision (-110)
