Wlad looked amazingly mobile, and had no problems with his stamina. He looked as good as ever to me. Jenning's went the distance because of the dodgy ref ho allowed him to charge in with his head down. Without the crooked ref to protect him, he'd probably have been KOed.
This as well with kidney shot. That was all Jennings was able to do all night. But Wlad is past prime, you can clearly see that. His hand speed isnt the same, as well as his footwork, his reflexes too. He rely more on clinches now, then he was before. Still the only 2 man which have a chance to beat him are probably Fury and Wilder. But Fury have 20% chance if Wlad is too much off his game, and Wilder 40%. Other then that if he understimate someone and have bad training camp before that.
He's way past it, 5 years ago he was faster, sharper, more powerful. Wlad from 5 years ago , would have knocked jennings out within 5 rounds
Ya, most guys peak physically at 39 :/ He's not prime, doesn't make him anything other than still the best HW in the world though.
He looked declined. His jab isn't as fast as he once was, and don't have as much pop behind as it once had.
Sure, everybody's prime is 40-45 now not 25-30. Why not? That's why the Calzaghe victories over Hopkins and Jones are so good. And everyone Mayweather ever fought was right in their primes.
