PhilBoxing.com Sat, 14 Dec 2024

KAUNAS, LITHUANIA (December 13, 2024) – Reigning, undefeated WBA welterweight champion Eimantas Stanionis (15-0, 9 KOs) is poised for a monumental 2025 as he aims to defend his title multiple times and unify the welterweight division. Known for his relentless, fan-friendly fighting style, Stanionis has become one of the most feared champions in boxing, yet his name often goes unmentioned in discussions about the sport’s elite.
With an aggressive, throwback style that has endeared him to boxing fans worldwide, Stanionis remains focused on proving he’s the best in the division. As he continues to train daily in his hometown of Kaunas, Lithuania, he awaits a significant fight announcement that could set the tone for his career-defining year.
“I’m ready to make 2025 the biggest year of my career,” said Stanionis, who fights under the Premier Boxing Champions banner. “My goal is to defend my WBA title at least three times and unify with all the other world champions. I want to prove I’m the best in the division, and I’m willing to face anyone to make that happen. Every day, I’m putting in the work here in Lithuania. The cold weather and tough conditions keep me sharp and focused. I’m preparing for a big fight announcement, and when the time comes, I’ll be ready to put on a show for the fans.”
Stanionis’ relentless pursuit of greatness and his willingness to take on all comers make him a compelling figure in boxing. Fans can expect fireworks everytime he steps in the ring as he looks to unify the welterweight division and solidify his legacy in 2025.
“Becoming a pound-for-pound world champion is my ultimate goal,” concluded Stanionis. “I’m doing everything possible to make that a reality, from intense training to perfecting my craft. 2025 will be the year I take my place among the best fighters in the world.”
