The Ukrainian also named his desired opponents
Ukrainian boxer Karen Chukhadzhyan (24-3, 13 KOs) commented on his fight against the IBF welterweight champion Jaron Ennis (33-0, 29 KOs).
“Ennis is a tough boxer. We expected him to be more aggressive, we both had something to prove and this battle was spectacular. I hope you enjoyed it.”
“I remain at welterweight. We’ll talk to the promoter and decide. Now I want to rest and meet my child. This motivated me. “I fought not only for myself, but also for my family.”
“Who would you fight with? Definitely not Ennis anymore. Any champion: Barrios, Stanionis, Norman.”
Chukhajyan lost to Ennis in his last fight. The fight eventually lasted the entire intended distance of 12 rounds, and to determine the winner it was necessary to resort to the judges’ notes. All three referees unanimously gave the victory to Ennis: 119:107, 117:109, 116:110.
Let us remember that Chukhadzhyan had previously met with Ennis. The previous fight also took place in the USA in January 2023. The American confidently won on points, all judges gave each round to Jaron (three times 120:108).
Chukhadzhyan’s liabilities now include three defeats in his professional career. Ennis, 27, remains undefeated in his third successful IBF title defense.
The potential next opponent of the Ukrainian boxer could be another American, Blair Cobbs.
