    Plan A for Jennings was to land a wide looping overhead right on the run into Wlad's torso (Haye tried that too). Once he realised after the mid-rounds that the probability of that was approaching zero (Wlad's defence is great, surprise), he switched for plan B - not to get KO'd and go the distance while losing on the cards. He knew all along that no amount of body punches will grant him a decision victory yet kept pressing on with them.
    Jennings is no different from Wlad in respect that he's a safety first fighter. Those seeing in him a potential 'saviour' of the division are in for a huge disappointment.

    It's not that outrageous.

    Official Judges:
    Two said Wlad lost rounds 3, 6, and 9
    And one said Wlad lost round 7.

    So 4 rounds right there that at least one official judge thought Wlad lost.

    I can't link as I haven't been on the site long enough.

    Search "Wladimir Klitschko v Bryant Jennings – as it happened"

    It's on The Guardian.

    lol that was a clear cut Wladimir victory. If Jennings is lucky then he'll get 3 rounds.

    It was a clear victory, but it was also probably Wlad's closest fight in like a decade.

    After May 2nd, hopefully you'll be man enough to admit that the winner was the better fighter, and always was.

    Come to think of it, it was Jennings who initiated most of the clinches.
    I totally get the point deduction for Wlad, but yes, it must have been done for Jennings as well.

    Wlad uses clinching as a tactic, he doesn't do it as a reflex or as a last resort coincidentally. Clinching is part of his game plan.

    It's like:
    - Jab Jab Jab
    (moment of breather)
    - Did opponent get close?
    a) No- Jab Jab Jab
    b) Yes- Clinch
    - Let the ref meddle in
    Repeat the process

    That's something to be punished every fight it is executed, in my opinion.

    It's difficult though because it's not always easy to say who exactly is causing the clinching. Jennings was really charging at Wlad at some points, what could Wlad really do about it?
