Jaron Ennis vs. David Avanesyan: date, venue, and when to tune in?

It has been a long excruciating wait for the Philadelphia fans to witness their homegrown champion up close. But that wait ends on this Saturday, July 13. All fans have to do is flock to the Philadelphia Flyers and 76ers base, Wells Fargo Center. The arena, which can hold up to 21,000 spectators, has also hosted various WWE and NBA events. The last ‘Boots’ fought before his home crowd was in 2018 when he dismantled Raymond Serrano with a second-round KO. Will similar fireworks be on display? You can bet so.

The same time translated to 4 a.m. BST for the fans tuning in from the UK. But where can you stream it and how much do you have to spend for the event?

Skye Nicolson (c) vs. Dyana Vargas (WBC featherweight title)

However, the champion faces an uphill task in Dyana Vargas, who is on a three-fight win streak and boasts destructive power behind her punches. They say styles make fights and this is one of the perfect examples of it.
