Artur Spzilka VS Bryant Jennings - Post fight thoughts

Scott's really good. He just got through completely dominating Chisora, who's a scrub but still a big name.

 

Jennings took the fight to him, attacked the body and stopped him. Jennings is better than Mitchell. Better balance and better chin. Jennings is probably too small for either K brother.
Imo he can beat Povetkin.

 

Jennings would not beat Povetkin, Vlad, Pulev, Vitali, Arreola, Stiverne, but Jennings would knock Wilder out and get the #3 ranking WBC. Well, instead of Scott..............it should be Jennings/Wilder...............

 

Spilka's had his fame-another propped up mediocre heavyweight has just bit the dust

 

Povetkin is clueless in the ring.

 

The win discrediting patrol is out on Jennings here. Before the fight people talking about interesting 50/50 or 60/40 Jennings and Jennings comes through big and now Szpilka's never been worth a crap. He's not likely going to become a world titlist but he's a little talented and a little heavyhanded and a little undefeated. This was a pretty good win with all things considered.

 

Ok so I was wrong about this fight. Szpilka proved that he is still young and has lots of work to do. His defense was exposed. BJ outboxed him and had the perfect gameplan. He stuck to his plan the whole time. He covered himself up whenever he felt Szpilka was going to attack and BJ's counters were excellent. Szpilka had no answer for anything. Congrats BJ, you rocked it. Szpilka finally gets the loss on his record and realizes that he has ton of work to do, so as a fan of Szpilka I'm hoping this works out for him improving in the long run..

 

Well done Jennings, he's come a long way since the Byarm fight.

 

Poland has none! :happy

 

All Jennings has to do is fight like Purrity, Sanders or Brewster. Nonstop pressure, good defense and when the big lummox (Wlad) tires, take it to him.

 

Spzilka can't fight on the inside. He has good movement, and he tried to use it to create distance. Unfortunately for him, Jennings has good movement as well. Jennings also is a good defensive fighter as well and can punch with both hands. Jennings was able to close the distance without taking much punishment and broke Artur down with those body shots.

 

I applaud your consistent trolling.

But you're wrong.:nono There's Adamek, who is in fact a "B"- "B-" HW. Not champion material, but a top fighter nonetheless.

And since were on the topic of who has what; Sweden didn't have a relevant fighter (in any division) for the last 50 years. You're not really in the position to point fingers at Polacks, Ingemar:verysad

 

Credit to Jennings. He won fair, square, and handily without too much trouble. He's shown he's a legit top 20 guy, I have him about 15. Still, it nuts that as soon as someone beats a top 30 guy, bandwagon jumpers love to say "he's clearly top 10" blah blah. Whether him, or Perez etc. He's not top 10. Spilzka is arguably the first top 25ish HW he's beaten (maybe White Wolf, but he looked totally shot and was ko 1'd by Wilder in his next fight). If he beats a top 15ish guy next, then he'll deserve consideration as top 10, but until then, absolutely not. Also, the problems with Jennings remain, somewhat small and low powered for a modern heavyweight. I could see him becoming a legit top 10 guy, but that's his ceiling.

 

I thought Jennings looked pretty good Saturday. He's talking title shot but he needs a few more credible wins before facing Wlad but I can see him getting a title shot sooner than later.

Nothing changes with Spzilka, he's still a limited but entertaining fighter. I would love to see a Spzilka-Seth Mitchell fight.
