    I'd rather see Jennings take another fight before Wlad, or even his shot against the Stiverne-Wilder winner (whenever the hell that fight happens).

    Bryant Jennings vs. Andy Ruiz, Jr. would've made for a good fight.

    I dunno man, I think at his peak Chambers was better than Jennings, he was a really gifted fighter, just small and lacking power, but really good skills

    If you wouldn't have come up with your addendum, you would have effectively stated that almost every "golden age" and old timer Heavyweight would have been "too small" to fight Wladdymyr, and then a greyscale superioritist mob would probably lynch you IB. :hang

    it is obvious hbo won't be agreeing to him fighting any eastern european the next two fights. next up will be an american, or the fury-chisora winner. after that, odds are they are banking on the stiverne-wilder winner.

    Size difference aside, it's more problematic that Wlad's more skilled, more experienced, hits significantly harder, has faster hands, and is more economical in his movement than Jennings is.

    I like Jennings, but it's more than size he's up against

    I find all three of them (Chambers, Jennings, and Thompson) very difficult to split, actually. :think

    Jennings seems to have more upside than either.

    Thompson given his dimensions and caginess may have been the one most inclined to ever bother WK.

    Chambers was kind of the best of both worlds in 2010 when he challenged - young and streaking hot like Jennings currently is, but also with already enough solid high-level experience and proven skill, like Thompson had, for many to wonder if he could make it somewhat interesting.

    2014/15 Jennings, 2010 Chambers, and 2012 or 2008 Thompson - you could place them in any order really and justify it. Each brings very different things to the table, but they're all roughly in the same league - at least relative to Klitschko challengers ahead of them (so, Povetkin) or behind them (so, all the rest). Kind of a little runners-up cluster all their own, all happening to hail from the land of the free.

    What a waste of money.

    Jennings is garbage, didn't even beat fatty Perez.

    You would have to ask Boxed Ears as i was responding to his claims but he stated it with such conviction and the man is above reproach, words if diamond, questioning the validity of feline Dwyer's love of Hitler's fashion sense never entered my mind. Nor would it for any reputable or sane human being.......BOXED...EARS...what more needs to be said? Nothing, he's the Alpha and Omega, once his words fall upon our ears all others pale in comparison, where do you think his screen name comes from! Where!? He renders further communication obsolete, not only obsolete but sacrilegious in nature. Moral of the story, sombody needs to corner the feline Hitler attire market there is millions, BILLIONS, to be made. Nothing is more exploitable than an owner's love for their pet, all love for that matter, it makes people weak, weak like women. I guess what i'm saying is.....i forgot what i was saying. Nevermind.
