There is a quiet storm brewing in Shelton Washington, on Friday night. Unfortunately for former world title contender Anthony Hanshaw (23-2-2, 14KO’s), the storm is in the name of rising super middleweight Farah “The Quiet Storm” Ennis (20-1,12Ko’s).
“This is my biggest fight to date and I am ready for anything that Hanshaw will bring on Friday night,” commented Ennis on the eve of the card to be televised nationally on ESPN2’s “Friday Night Fights.”
Ennis, the former NABF super middleweight champion, has reeled of three straight victories since losing the first and only loss of his career by majority decision to Alexander Johnson. Ennis offers no excuses for his only loss, but says he learned a lot from that fight. Since that time “The Quiet Storm has stopped Grover Young and captured one sided unanimous decision victories over former USBO super middleweight champ Shujaa El Amin and dangerous veteran Richard Pierson. Now he has his sights set only on Hanshaw.
“I had a great camp with fantastic sparring,” reiterated Ennis. “I feel really strong and I promise you will see the best of me on Friday night.
“I’ve heard that Hanshaw said that he will put the final nail in my coffin. Well if he knew what was good for him, he should never have come out of retirement.”
Lookout Hanshaw! The Quiet Storm is heading your way!
