Ennis, who was last seen dropping a 10-round unanimous decision to new WBC Super Middleweight champion Badou Jack, is looking to get back into contention with a big outing over the veteran from Ghana.
“Обука је била добра. I only know that Gbenga is from Ghana,” said Ennis.
After what Ennis admitted was a lackluster performance against Jack, he needed some time away from the sport in order to get himself back on track.
I took the time off to get my mind together. In that fight I didn’t let my hands go. I was thinking too much and I know I could have beat him. It just wasn’t my night.
Ennis also took the time off to get into some training camps and improve on his own game.
I was in camp with David Lemieux for when he fought Gabriel Rosado. It was during that time I got my head back and now is where I need to be. I need to go out and listen to my dad (Trainer Bozy Ennis). I am in 32 година сада. То је то. It is either all or nothing.
I just hope everyone comes out and supports as I am looking to put on a show and start the next phase of my career.

Chambers, who came originally to Philadelphia with former Heavyweight title challenger, “Брзо” Еддие Цхамберс, fought 23 times and the famed Blue Horizon in Philadelphia and will be making his first start in the City of Brotherly Love in almost 6 године.
I have been training hard and working on opening my new gym with (лаган кандидат) Rod Salka,” said Upsher.
I am on weight already and I feel good. We will be fighting at 142 поундс.”
Upsher is ready to show the fans how far his abilities have grown since he turned pro in Philadelphia in 2003 када је био само 18 година стар.
I am happy to be coming back to Philadelphia. I want to show people how far I have come and see the improvement that I have made as a fighter.
Despite losing his three bouts to the likes of former world champions Luis Collazo and Andre Berto as well as then-undefeated prospect Eddie Gomez, Upsher was competitive in all those bouts and grew tremendously from those experiences.
It showed that I can compete against that level of fighter. Plus everyone of those guys was bigger than me. Ја сам природна 140 pounder and can make 135 if the right opportunity presented itself.
Chambers went back to his native Pittsburgh to train in neighboring city Coal Center, ПА.
My mind is set on winning a world title at 140 фунти. After the three losses, I cant afford any missteps. People see about the losses. I know I have the ability to be a world champion and on Мај 29 that will start to show.
On the veteran opponent, Родригез, Upsher said, “I know he is tough and from Mexico. I will look at a little film before the fight and go from there. I really don’t worry about what he will do. He should worry about me. This fight is redemption for me. It’s a start and then I would like to right all of the losses. But first I am looking for a dominant performance у петак then I want to end all doubts.
An outstanding undercard has been assembled.
