Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis is gearing up for his next challenge inside the squared circle this weekend against David Avanesyan, replacing the sidelined Cody Crowley. Ennis, now the IBF welterweight full champion after winning and defending the interim title, aims to maintain his unbeaten record.
David Avanesyan, the former WBA welterweight champion, poses as Ennis’s latest opponent, though he hasn’t fought since a December 2022 loss to Crawford. This hiatus and Ennis’s ascending dominance cast Avanesyan as a significant underdog against the Philadelphia native.
