Is Jaron Ennis vs Eimantas Stanionis fight a foregone conclusion...

[champion4ever]

No, because just like Larry Merchant used to say: "Boxing is the theatre of the unexpected". If 'Boots' comes in overconfident, lacking discipline and focus then anything could happen.

Every fighter has the puncher's chance. Therefore, both technically and theoretically; Stanionis could very well win this fight. With that being said and I may be wrong but personally I don't believe he will. Ennis just has too much ability for him.

This is the biggest fight of Jaron's career. Not only is he the better fighter but likewise, He should be very focused and prepared for the task at hand as well.

Neither has fought anyone that good so no reason to think it's a foregone conclusion. The best fight between them must have been Stanionis vs Butaev? That was heavy leather fight, Stanionis' chin was tested pretty good in thsat one.

So, all I've got is that Stanionis signed up to fight Vergil twice and was left at the altar both times. When Ennis was given the chance to fight Ortiz, he passed.

I was impressed with Stanionis in his fight against Butaev. Radzhab is one tough Russian and I had my doubts he could hold up to the disciplined physicality Butaev brings.

Boots is a much different challenge but I think Stanionis has a consistent, disciplined approach with underrated skills. Boots is the better boxer with the physical gifts. Boots also has leaky defense and tends to get tagged while looking to unload his arsenal.

I could see Boots wanting to do more than simply outbox his opponent, and in the process, getting tagged clean by Stanionis. Let's see how that chin holds up if that happens.

Stanionis is under-rated. He has an ability to subtly adjusts and is always is thinking in the ring. He has a steady forward approach that can slow down a fight.

Jaron Boots should be winning this fight by stoppage.

Experience matters. 34 fights vs 16 fights.

Indeed. It's a foregone conclusion like the thread title says.
