    No wasn't close. Clear UD for Wlad -- but not a shutout.

    Wlads right hands to Jennings face >>> Jennings body shots to Wlad

    Wlad hurt Jennings on a few occasions, Jennings didn't hurt Wlad with the body blows.

    Jennings wasn't throwing legit bodyshots those love taps in a clinch don't count for much. There is a huge difference in doing what Jennings was doing and ripping punches to the body like Gerry ****ey used to do. 83 of Jennings landed punches were taps in a clinch.

    I gave Wlad 8 rounds and with the point deduction got 115-112 Klitschko.

    Jennings' only scoring criteria was his slaps to the body. They were pretty weak.

    Wlad dominated the ring, dominated the distance and dominated with his jab. It wasn't close - it was easy for Wlad.

    I think those body shots from the clinch were weak. There is no momentum to them, pretty much just arm punches.

    Clear victory for Wlad, who looked vulnerable. Jennings was better than expected, and Wlad is past his best. Hopefully he can still give a couple of good performances before retiring.

    You don't get rounds for doing "better than expected". You get rounds for doing more and better work.

    Dan Raphael had it a shut out. I gave a few to Jennings + the deduction.

    I had Wlad winning by 3 points or 4 rds (-1 for point deduction. BY Jennings fought a decent fight, but he didn't win. Although I think a rematch could be warranted if Wilder doesn't get the fight

    Yeah, that's the way I saw it. I didn't have any problem with Wlad getting the decision but it wasn't a dominate performance by a long shot. I think that if Jennings would have won that last round convincingly, I would have called it a draw. For the record, body shots only count when Canelo is throwing them.
