KENSINGTON, MARYLAND – Май 17, 2017 – Victory Boxing Promotions is keeping with its promise to keep its top prospects busy, с Джарън “ботуши” Енис (11-0, 9KO) и Carlos “The Tiburon” Sanchez (13-0, 12KO) stepping into the ring in Virginia and Mexico over the weekend.

Енис’ край, which was scheduled for six rounds, was the fourth this year for the highly-touted prospect. He faced journeyman Eduardo Flores (25-27-3, 15KO), stopping him in the fourth round. The fight was a learning experience for Ennis, who has faced increasingly more experienced competition in his last three fights. Flores has bouts with Egis Kavaliauskas, Брад Solomon, Kermit Cintron under his belt, and gave boxing fans in attendance at the Masonic Temple in Norfolk, Virginia a good show before having the fight stopped by the referee at 1:57 of the fourth round due to an accumulation of unanswered punches. Ennis wasted no time in returning to the gym, where he trains with his father, “Bozy” Енис, to prepare for his next bout, June 10th в Atlantic City, New Jersey. It is the first of four bouts already scheduled into the third quarter of 2017. The welterweight sensation has stayed busy, racking up eleven wins in thirteen months.

“This is what we’ve planned for Victory Boxing’s prospects,” said Victory Boxing Promoter Chris Middendorf. “We want to keep them busy and keep them learning. Boots is a special talent, and we want to get him in the ring and in front of his fans as much as possible.”

Carlos “The Tiburon” Sanchez returned to his hometown of San Felipe, Mexico for the first time since his January 2016 професионален дебют, facing Ivan “Тигър” Chevelas, ветеран от 33 битки. Scheduled for six rounds, the fight ended in the fourth, with Carlos dropping Chevelas twice en route to landing a barrage of punches, which prompted the referee to wave off the fight. Sanchez has also been busy, racking up thirteen wins in just 19 месеца.

Victory Boxing Promotions has a busy summer ahead. One of the promotion’s most promising prospects (и 2017 high school graduate), борец от полусредна категория Brandun Lee (2-0, 2KO) is back in action 1 юни във Финикс, and flyweight Manuel Flores прави професионалния си дебют тази събота in Palm Springs.

“It’s important to stick to the plan and listen to my corner,” said the 20-year-old, who hails from Salinas, Халиф. “He was somewhat reckless so I needed to show a little more patience with him.

“I’ve been working on using more angles to set up punches,” Вила каза. “The goal is to develop better range with my jab so I can be more effective. With Ruiz, I plan to feel him out for the first round and then I’ll start going at his weaknesses. A lot of what I plan to do will come off the jab.”
