    Amazing statistic.

    Hes on the verge of fighting for a world title and he has 36 boxing matches in his entire career. Amateur AND Pro.

    That must be almost a record?

    He's much better than Wilder and deserves more attention. Jennings should be facing Stiverne, not Wilder....

    And that's exactly why I thought Perez would beat him.

    BJ has a good mind for boxing without having that good mind for boxing there is no way he could have made it to the level he is at without experience. He's made a lot out of a very little. His lack of experience does show at times. He has to still think a lot about what he's doing but he has managed to win so far.

    His fight with Perez was appalling. If that wasn't on the undercard of a fight I was looking forward to I wouldn't even have bothered. I have always been a fan that tunes in to all fights but the Heavyweight division is an absolute joke.

    Algeiri has 20 Boxing fights total but he also had an amateur and Pro Kick boxing career.

    Suppose if you go by fighters who came from other combat sports, many have won titles coming from Muay Thai back round in a short amount of boxing bouts.

    He actually has quite decent boxing fundamentals for such a novice, it is just that he is so ordinary in pretty much every aspect, can't see him ever building a fanbase. The best he can hope for is to get a world title shot and make some good money to secure his family's future.

    I went to the fight. He had a lot of support actually. Plenty of cheers.

    Yeah but they at least had a history of fighting. Throwing punches, taking strikes etc.

    This guy started from zero

    He is only 30 in the HW division where they tend to last a bit longer. I agree with you that he has the opportunity to make some decent money and either stop working or continue to work at the Federal Bank of Philadelphia.

    There is really nothing to not like about Jennings. He is a hardworking fighter that works a 9-5 and trains to be the best he can be. The guy is working to continue to become a better fighter.

    He just beat a Cuban Olympian in his 36th total fight. Perez had how many?

    I think if they fight again, Jennings would even win by a larger margin as Perez is who he is at this stage and Jennings is still on the upward curve.

    Yeah but he was a life long kickboxer and had been a world champion in it.

    Its not exactly the same as starting from scratch like Jennings
