JARON Ennis will face a brand new opponent on July 13. Southpaw David Avanesyan (30-4-1, 18 KOs) has stepped in to exchange Cody Crowley, who withdrew because of persistent eye injury. Avanesyan, a former European champion, inflicted Josh Kelly’s first skilled loss in 2021. The Newark-based upsetter beforehand snapped the 27-0 file of Spanish banger Kerman Lejarraga, so Ennis will must be on his guard.

Boxing as a headliner within the Wells Fargo Middle, ‘Boots’ (31-0, 28 KOs) is making the primary defence of his lately upgraded IBF title. Former champion Terence Crawford defeated Avanesyan in six rounds on the tail finish of 2022, so this shall be a good measuring stick between the pair.
“Now that Crowley is formally not my opponent, I truly like Avanesyan as a greater opponent,” mentioned Ennis. “He’ll put up a greater battle which shall be what I would like. July 13, don’t miss this stunning, excellent efficiency!”
