i just hope it's a quick ko either way. i'll pick jennings. Bryant Jennings: 222.6 lbs. Mike Perez: 242.2 lbs.
Stop it man fedo got out boxed by lance "goofi" Whitaker a shot one not long ago .... Jennings is in over his head
242.2 :---( He was 231 last time out vs Takam. Jennings doesnt have a gram of fat on him at 222. While i think Jennings should look to bulk up some to about 240, soas to add power, he hasnt needed to because he sets traps, has strong enough shoulders to bang with arm punches..... I don't think Perez is taking this seriously. Maybe Sanchez is not giving him the appropriate time, motivation, but that's what happens when youve got a mega star taking up him time/energy. Might be time for Perez to take some time off and look for a new trainer. While guys like Khan, Ward, and Mares look to Virgil Hunter or Manny Steward(RIP) to tighten up defensively, many guys go to Roach to learn how to become more offensive minded. Perez might need to take the Roach or Garcia route to learn to attack more and look for counter opportunities off the fron foot.
Just saw the pics and vid. Hoooly **** did Perez look like **** and unhealthy. And I'm not just talking bout his body but his face as well. My god. I'm worried about his mental state. Jennings on the other hand.. lean & mean, fresh and ready to roll.
Perez did so well against Mago, because he could take his power, and Mago gave him ample opportunity to counter him repeatedly, Mago made him look better than he really is. Jennings has the longer reach and is a better all around, not spectacular at anything but better basic fundamentals. Jennings by late KO or probable points win.
Not sure what you guys saw, but Jennings was the one who lost the staredown and your body has nothing to say about your ability in the ring.
Perez had an extensive amateur career... The man is a career/life fighter with pedigree. Chubby or not, he's simply a quality operator. I like Jennings but he's got a tenth the experience of the Cuban and I think it will be telling tomorrow night.
And Jennings hasn't soley fought people who openly invite him to counter? Szpilka, Fedosov, Liakhovich and Tupou... You could not ask for a more hittable group of heavyweights.
