    This is going to be a good fight, looking forward to it. Props to these two undefeated HW's on taking the chance, needs to be more of this in the division to make things exciting. I really don't know who is going to win this match so it will be really interesting to see who comes out on top.

    Appreciate the info and the analysis. I, think I read that you attended both Mollo fights, so your seeing things that we may miss on tv. Jennings, has a limited amateur career, so in effect he's been playing catch up. He got by on his natural athleticism earlier, but has worked hard in the gym and has progressed. He's stiff in his movements. Either because of his body type, or lack of total experience. I think Jennings hits harder then his record may indicate. Shows good skills, but he seems to lose focus, against Fedosov he seemed unable to control the tempo. He needs to impose his will and skills from the start.

    Szpilka, has those eyebrows/skin that to me just seem prone to being opened up. If his defense doesn't get better, he's going to get busted up and stopped, maybe not by Jennings, but someone else on his way up. Szpilka, is a crowd pleasing fighter who will be a crowd favorite regardless of nationality, just because of his style and punch. Good to see this at MSG. If it's the fight I anticipate, this means only good things for the division. I like it that these prospects believe in themselves, and are willing to mix it....Lets get ready to rumble!!

    Good staredown, looking like both realize what this fight is about and are ready to rumble. Excited about this fight. Lots of questions are going to be answered. Somebody's life is going to change. Kudo's to both fighters for mixing it up.

    Why is Jennings wearing glasses? Are those prescription? I assume there is no way in hell he has contacts during a fight. So what's up with these? Please don't tell me the fool is wearing those frames for vanity.

    Watched the 2nd fight again. Szpilkas movement is impressive. The akward punching angles Szpilka utilizes could give Jennings trouble. Hand and foot speed, will keep Jennings on his toes. We shall see what kind of chin, Jennings has. Should be a good fight.

    Maybe it's just me but I think this is a fight between a Polish heavyweight from Poland and an American heavyweight from America.

    It's a pretty even fight, but I just feel Szpilka is a bit too crude/wide open when he punches. Jennings by tko 6 (after himself getting caught and possibly dropped in the first 2 rounds).

    Fair enough, but I think if BJ gets dropped he ain't getting up. Artur is not a light puncher. Either way, we will likely find out much about Jennings' chin.
