    Prescott was also supposed to be an easy night out for Khan

    fack nevermind. klitchko vs jennings is the bigger mismatch. khan can be a mental midget, if hes acting ****y, algieri could clip him, wladmir isnt that complacent. Also khan doesnt hit nearly as hard as wlad p4p,

    Provo vs Algeri was too close to call and tho Algeri was game vs Pacquiao he didn't win a single round or second in the fight. Jennings beat Perez, a solid heavyweight and a heavy handed Spilka. Jennings is a solid all around fighter and very smart for the record he has. He fights like a solid veteran, smarter than most heavyweights. Not the fastest, strongest, or hardest punching, but he still finds a way to win. If Wlad can't knock Jennings out early, Jennings can make it a long night for Wlad. I always thought he was better than Wilder too. Reminds me of Norton just without that cross armed style he had.

    Same difference.

    Algeri outboxed Ruslan and was considered by anyone besides fl0m0s3xuals to be a consensus top 5 LWW.

    3 lbs N or S don't change what Algeri was able to do vs Provo, Taylor, and Arnoutis.

    The bigger mismatch was Madaina vs Floyd.

    And Madaina came out the first fight smelling like roses b/c he jumped right on Floyd.

    But the rematch was fought where rds 4-12 left off in the first fight. And the outcome of that fight was predetermined even moreso than Algeri Pac, or Jennings vs Wlad.

    Good post, but Jennings got a huge mountain to climb in this fight and he's never fought anyone with the power/speed/size combination that Klitschko presents.

    NTM his Lennox Lewis/John Ruiz offense defense off the grab.:think

    Wtf are you going on about Floyd? Pac****s these days :patsch. Either way Algieri isn't half the fighter Maidana is. Unless you're saying Floyd is so much better than Pac, so Floyd fighting Maidana is worse than Pac fighting Algieri. Same as Jennings. If you think Jennings is even close to Maidana in credibility than you dont know **** about this sport. Jennings most credible win is Perez who I actually had winning.

    He's had 19 matches and 10 KO's and beat some relatively decent opponents, more than Wilder actually, although I'm not saying that to discredit Deontay.

    I give Algieri a decent chance against Khan....Jennings on the other hand not a even a slight one.

    Was actually talking about Algieri/Pac. No one gave him a damn shot. People claim that "floyd fans", were saying Algieri would beat Pac, but if you look at my thread creating history, I was calling Algieri a substitute teacher, and an avocado lover before the fight happened.

    Also, I wouldn't say Jennings has beat better opponents. Stiverne > a fat overweight Perez who I actually had winning. Scott > Szpilka even if Malik did throw the fight, name wise. I couldn't recognize anyone else on his resume besides Liakovich who they both beat, and I doubt even you know the rest of the guys he fought, becuase I boxreced them and none of them have fought anyone notable.

    I did actually I wrote a thread giving Chris a slight chance against Pac if he did certain things, but only a slight one and he obviously didn't do those certain things. I was a fan of Chris' before the Provo fight and predicted a win for him in that match on here as well.
