Tonight’s boxing schedule features undefeated IBF welterweight champion Jaron “Boots” Ennis, who will defend his title against David Avanesyan at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Ennis weighed in at 146.4 lbs for the bout, while Avanesyan hit the welterweight limit of 147 lbs. Originally, Ennis and Cody Crowley were set to fight; however, Crowley withdrew due to an eye injury.
Avanesyan, with a record of 30 wins, 4 losses, and 1 draw (18 of his wins by knockout), looked better at today’s weigh-in than 27-year-old Boots, who has a record of 31 wins and no losses (28 of his wins by knockout). It was clear that Boots had to lose a lot of water weight to reach the welterweight limit.
