    You're a pathetic dickhead who is always hedging his bets. Szpilka KO under 5. Szpilka has WAY more pop than Jennings.

    He was like that about Fonfara too, and then went quiet when he KOed Campillo.

    Fury is always stepping up, now don't invent things only because you hate him :deal
    When will Wilder fight Kevin Johnson? Dereck Chisora? David Haye? Steve Cunningham?
    Also Fury is 5 years younger than Wilder, and doesn't have 30 fights.
    Looking at Wilder's progression, is doubtful he'll rech Fury's resume by the end of his career.

    Wilder has fought very carefully-chosen, soft opposition for certain.

    They are at very similar stages in their careers so it can go either way but I will go out on a limb and say Szpilka by KO in 7.

    Szpilka does have gaps in his defense but he also has a powerful and deceitful left hand, good footwork, he moves like a LHW, good chin, very motivated especially when somebody gets under his skin and BJ already did just that, and unlike Bryant he started as an amateur (more than 100 fights) and collected some worthy trophies back then.

    I think Jennings will try to pop and move, go in and out and give Szpilka angles. I think Szpilka will get hit,especially because of the reach disadvantage, but if BJ can't hurt him I think Szpilka is fast enough (both hand and foot speed) to close the gap and land some nasty punches. I think we will learn a lot about the type of chin Jennings possesses and the true extent of his power. Szpilka's punches are fast and deceptive, most of his opponents did not see the last punch coming, which is partly the reason he gets that spectacular one punch KO so often. Check this one out:

    Not creative enough to sustain a pop and move tactic for 10-12 rounds.

    There are times in his fights where he just simply covers up and stops throwing.

    A lot of people have categorized this fight as a slick, skilled fighter versus a crude slugger. Do you guys agree?

    By heavyweight standards I mean.

    Even by HW standards.

    Szpilka does dumb **** but is definetly not crude and not slick when he pays for doing his dumb ****(counter uppercuts with both hands down while on the ropes:-()

    Jennings although a late starter looks OK so i cant call him crude and he definetly is not slick with little upper body movement and limited footwork.
