wlad will win I need to watch tape of Jennings with wlad (like we always do before camp) to get a better feeling of game plan and jennings positives and negatives, but....... I do now (IMO) wlad will be to much... jennings hasn't even come close to fighting a guy like wlad or a fight of this scale
According to rotund dan the fight would take place in new york, either Barclays center or msg. Jennings has two straight wins against top ten-ish heavyweights on hbo and is probably the best American heavyweight so makes sense. Also ready or not if you get a shot at all the marbles you r ake it, like hat he didn't sit on his ass waiting for wilder and stiverne to figure things out
I have recently watch Jennings' fight with Perez. He seems to be a good boxer, good movement, skills, speed. However, he takes many shots and has some weak points in his defence. The beginning of that fight was definetely for Perez, he just wan't in shape to keep going like this all night long. Taking into consideration that Wlad has a great experience fighting smaller opponents, I think Jennings will be KOed in the second half of the fight, having caused some minor troubles at the beginning.
Very good choice of opponent. Wlad should win without problems. And Jennings is a fine contender. Hope he can fight Stiverne/Wilder winner next and that will be a great 2015. 19 or 20 defenses as champion. 10 years at the top. After that I would say he's a clear candidate for Top3 or Top5 heavyweight of all time. And if Mayweather somehow loses, Wlad becomes P4P #1.
If they were the same size, the skill and experience gulf is still too wide. I like Jennings and his progress has been remarkable, but it's just not enough for Wlad. He's still fringe top 5 caliber though, so this is a quality defense.
Jennings hasn't done sh.it but beat up on a string of BUMs, STIFFs, TOMATO CANs, No Hopers and NEVER WEREs. Stiverne honestly has a better resume than does Jennings.
WTF are you talking about, Einstein? I don't know when, if ever, Jennings will be ready for Klitschko but I damn sure know he's not ready NOW. Jennings needs a LOT more seasoning and time in the oven...
Let's compare: - Jennings: wins over Perez, Szpilka, Fedosov, Liakhovich - Stiverne: wins twice over Chris Arreola, Ray Austin Arreola is good, but that was a title fight. So Jennings resume is the best among US prospects.
