    Bryant Jennings returns in the fall Povetkin may be interested.

    Throw Povetkin the WBC title already! He's fighting the who's who of the division and deserves to be recognized. This would be a great fight if it were to happen, another solid name on Povetkins improving resume.

    I want Povetkin to fight for WBC strap. Wilder fighting Molina is disgraceful. However I must say this is a fantastic match up if it were to happen.

    I'd love to see Povetkin vs Jennings too, if WBC stalls Sasha For The title fight. And I wouldn't be surprised if Price ducks Rekowski too, like he did with Teper.

    It seems Povetkin's team actually reached out to Shaw about the possibility of Jennings going to Russia, very nice fight if it happened but I'm skeptical it does.

    Looks like Jennings is going to be back by the end of the year on HBO, unless a Povetkin fight changes things. He's fighting good opposition now but I hate seeing Jennings become a 1-2 fights a year guy now.

    He should be staying more active in order to stay sharp and build his marketability. He's a top heavyweight and American, there's a small fortune in that, he should be building his name up and 1 or 2 fights a year makes that much harder to do.

    Good month for prospects/contenders. Not a lot of very competitive fights, but it's good to see these guys keeping busy.
