Jaron Ennis and Eimantas Stanionis are set to clash in a crucial welterweight unification bout this weekend, with Ennis aiming to consolidate his status by becoming the undisputed champion at 147 pounds.
Ennis, who is the IBF Welterweight Champion, faced criticism in his last fight for not securing a knockout against Karen Chukhadzhian, despite his reputation as a knockout artist.
On the other hand, Stanionis, with a record of 15-0, comes into this fight on the back of a victory over Gabriel Maestre, and has accused Ennis of avoiding the fight by considering other opponents like Mario Barrios and Brian Norman Jr.
