    That's too bad, he could take a cheap on against Pulev and if he won, could make another cool million in a title shot. Short-sighted

    Absolutely. That would be a heckuva fight.

    Calm down. You sound like a PMSing woman.

    That's a shame. I'd always figured Bryant as more of a throw back type fighter, though I guess money can change anyone.

    I hope he reconsiders. The HW division's a poorer place without him.

    Nobody cares about Jennings. When was his last win, 2 years ago?

    That's what happens when you reached your level and you're not good enough.

    Jennings is certainly never going to be top of the tree, but he's consistently pushed himself.

    There are fighters out there whose true level we don't know yet because they refuse to take any hard challenges. I won't name names.

    Jennings is an idiot that could've bided his time and got another shot at the title but he mistakenly thought boxers get rewarded for losing tough fights. Not how this thing works. I'm not the one who doesn't know he exists. The question to ask is why is he practically anonymous as a boxer and a person? Begging for more credit is just begging, he's a loser. That's the mentality most people have.

    If you're naming names you'd have to name every boxer in boxing except Ward. That's why it's difficult to really do a top 10 P4P or a top 10 in most divisions.

    Jennings beat Szpilka better than Wilder.... Which is why Blackclouds is hating on him lol.

    Perez, Szpilka and Fedosov. Name me 3 wins on Wilders resume that surpass these. Jennings is what happens when fighters have spines and face all comers... Unlike the guy in your AV, who would have also lost to Wlad and Ortiz.

    Jennings only got a TKO, Wilder sparked him out cold, you can't honestly say Jennings did better. Stiverne was ranked #2 on the ring magazine rankings when Wilder beat him and top 5 elsewhere. Fedosov is Jenning's 3rd best win, it's not even worth talking about that run of the mill small heavy, even Eric Molina beats him so that's no prize. Saying Wilder would lose to Wlad and Ortiz, ofcourse an anti Wilder troll would say something like that.

    "Face all comers" is complete BS. Jennings is sitting on the bench hoping to be given a shot without earning it, somebody like Parker didn't even consider him because it means nothing to beat him. Jennings always was a foil for Wilder haters and he played the role like the tap dancer he is, now those very same fans think he's a bum. Doesn't even make sense the average puncher and small heavy with terrible ring IQ could do anything to Wilder. I bet you thought he'd lose to Stiverne like 70% of the forum that dksab. I say if you picked Stiverne you should have your Wilder prediction card revoked as you have no credibility when it comes to him.

    That's definetly a top10 resume right there. Part of the reason he's been so inactive is because he's not interested in staying busy against low level opponents and padding his record. He only wants to fight fellow contenders.

    If you look at the overall fight, round by round then you can say Jennings did better against Szpilka. And I'd favour Fedosov over Molina, Wawrzyk and current Arreola. Him vs Szpilka would be very entertaining.
