Boots Ennis vs Josh Kelly Super Welterweight Unification Feb 27 2027 Atlanta

[aioc]

Boots Ennis is on the run to become the top fighter in the boxing world; he is putting his WBO and WBA title against IBF champion Josh Kelly. Three titles are on the line, and the winner has the potential to meet Sebastian Fundora to unify all belts in the 154 division.

Boots Ennis is fresh from an impressive win against Xander Xayas, and he is likely to become the favorite to win this fight, I did not set up a poll, as there is no need, as Jaron "Enis" Boots is the heavy favorite to win this fight; power and skill Ennis has a big edge.

“What a fantastic unification fight this is,” said Hearn. “Boots and Josh are both brilliant World champions and this was not a difficult fight to make when you lay out what is there for the winner – three belts around your waist and just one more to collect to become undisputed at 154 and lay the foundations to a legacy in the sport.”

After that impressive victory by Boots Ennis for sure he will be favored to win against Josh Kelly. Not only in the power and skill that Boots has the advantage but he got also the edge in terms of experience as the British boxer got only 21 under his record and most of them were against unpopular fighters. Good if Kelly has this one punch that could turn the fight around but he got only 9 KOs in his 19 wins which suggest that Boots could survive even if Kelly's punches touches his chin.

Boots made it the easy way to become undisputed in 154 by fighting the weakest link, which is Josh Kelly, I have seen their first face-off, and Boots is so confident of winning this fight that he even teased Josh Kelly when holding Kelly's belt.

I think it's going to be an easier fight for Boots than the Xander Zayas fight. Of course, I don't rule out an upset, but Boots is a boxer who is good at calculating his opponents' every move.

What I really want to see is the match between Sebastian Fundora and Boots Ennis, both fighters are the best in this division  and anyone deserves to be an undisputed champion.

One sided fight! I don't think Kelly is a worthy opponent for Boots. I don't underrate him, but Boots is too skillful to fight him. So it's gonna be a real test for him. He only has speed that can make trouble for Boots, but once he get catches by Boots, It's gonna be the end for him.

Looking at the odds, Boots is having 90% probability to win. I think the result is too obviously Boots is winning this game. Boots is whooping Kelly soon.

My guess is that Boots round 8/9 by KO.

Hmm, so much hype about this match is absolutely normal. Any punter will bet on Boots Ennis power and skill. But don't think Josh Kelly is that weak. His flair and his hand speed I have seen is absolutely awesome.

He is not a destructive puncher like Ennis. But why do you think Eddie Hearn calls this a unification fight? Because Kelly's skill and sharpness can put his opposition under pressure at any time. I am sure that if Boots shows a bit of overconfidence, then something unexpected might happen.

I'm not sure what's next for Ennis after this fight, but it seems to be a tune up or springboard for something else.  Maybe he moves up in weight, who knows.  To me, this fight is so much of a mismatch that I won't even place a low wager on Kelly regardless of odds.  I see Ennis winning by KO or TKO in round 6 or 7.

Maybe less than that? round 5 maybe?

Here is the press conference for those who wanted to see:



I do agree, I don't see Josh Kelly winning this fight, he has to dig deeper here, like what he did when he defended his belt against Agyarko who throw a lot of volume punches and still Josh survived that fight.

But there, if Ennis started his usual game of calculating and dissecting Josh in the first 2 rounds and then once he is figured then could knock him out in round 4-5.
