Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis’s Lamb 154 debut: Why fans are making his choice of Uuis Lima

Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis posted an optimistic message on social media and told his followers that it was time to ‘display’ while arriving at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on October 11.

Ennis misrepresented the fans when he chose Lima. He thought they would throw compliments over his head over this choice and anoint Him as the uncrowned king of the 154-pound division. It didn’t happen. Many fans stopped with boots and realized that his entire career had been a rogue, with a resume filled with tomato cans from top to bottom.

Fans are tired of tune-ups

Interestingly, instead of the fans surrounding their wagons around ‘boots’, they knocked him out and criticized him for chosening the lower feed Lima (14-1, 10 COs) as his opponent in another ballot.

Ennis and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, believe it is necessary to take a fight against a contender to get used to fighting the junior middleweight. The problem is that they have someone too weak, too unclear and too unskilled to be a true test.

Lima is a fighter who has been beaten by the British fighter Aaron McKenna by a one-sided ten-round unanimous decision in 2023. He lost almost every round of the fight, and McKenna was not even highly judged.

“It’s not a good look for Jaron Ennis. If he is struggling with this man. The longer this battle goes, the worse it will look for Ennis. I just don’t like this struggle. Even for the lasting battle, even as a struggle to test your waters at 154, I hate it, ‘Sergio Mora said. channeland respond to Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis who prefers to fight an obscure contender for his debut on 154 in October.

A terrible appearance for ‘boots’

This is a terrible look for Ennis with his choice of 32-year-old Angolan-born Uisma Lima as his opponent. It is not a big enough name to move the needle. What makes it even worse is that the much older, the 37-year-old Terence Crawford showed more courage in his recent debut on 154, and the then WBA junior middleweight champion, Israil Madrimov, chose his opponent last year.

“I’m a big fan of ‘Boots’, I’m a big fan of him. I think he’s the future of boxing, but it’s a step in the wrong direction to become a star, ‘says Mora.

Sergio is correct. Ennis and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, who chose Uussa Lima as his next opponent on Dazn, was a stupid move, because this man is not a big enough name to give “boots” any credit. In addition, fans have become tired of the mediocre rise plane fights that Jaron has taken over the past four years.

For a fighter who has as much as Ennis has, his resume is 100% barren of quality names. It’s no wonder the fans are angry about his latest choice, Uussma Lima, as his choice for his first fight at 154. Ennis could have chosen Ramos Jr., Israil Madrimov, Serhii Bohachuk or Erickson Lubin as his opponent. The fans would have praised him.

Ennis had to act a long time ago and start fighting against fighters of high quality, but instead he played it safely and filled his record with this mid-the-road fighters:

– David Avanesyan
– Karen Chukhadzhian
– Roiman Villa
– Eimantas Stanionis
– Custio Clayton
– Sergey Lipinets
– Chris van Heerden
