Jennings has no power, no skills. He is just builded athlete but not a elite level boxer. I expect Klitschko to win by KO in 3-4 rounds, this time its in america and american people love knockouts. Not hate Jennings though, he is hard worker and seem nice guy in interviews. But the result of the fight is Klitschko by KO.
Jennings has wins vs Szpilka, Perez and Fedosov. Jennings is undefeated and was never down. Not an easy fight for Wladimir Maybe the best american HW opponent at the moment
He was dropped vs Bowie Tupou but it was mistakenly ruled a slip. I like Jennings though. Definitely a current heavyweight favourite of mine but if you're going to beat Wlad you need power and he's not a huge puncher tbh.
Almost every fight out there for Wladschko is a mismatch but the closer it gets to the fight, the more people will predict a Jenni upset.
It can not be that Jennings is a good fighter and Wlad is just much better fighter. But it has to be that Jennings is a Bum and Wlad can only win because of that. Jennings may not be a bum if he manages to beat Wlad thou,
Jennings lacks two very important things to beat Wlad, power and enough speed to close distance. He is not lacking in the skills department, he is fundamentally solid. He's competitive against every other heavyweight. Wlad is too much for anyone out at this stage.
It's all mismatches anyway, the only ones with a "chance" are maybe Fury and Wilder and even then the chance is a lucky KO punch early, skill wise they're nowhere near the same level. Jennings is a legitimate opponent, can't complain really, I just hope Wlad actually has the ***** to fight him fairly rather than clinching him to victory.
Jennings is promising, skilled, and a hell of a lot better than Wilder could ever dream of being, but he's super green to be jumping in the ring with good old Waldo. That said, respect for having the ***** to go after the best.
Exactly what fight for Wlad isnt a mismatch? Jennings is the best american heavyweight imo, undefeated, motivated, in shape and ready to bring the fight to wlad. Besides the wilder / stiverne winner and fury there is literally nobody else worthy of a shot right now so I have no problem with a Jennings fight.
Well, if we abandon the stance that Klitschko vs everybody in the world is a mismatch, Jennings is one of the more deserving fighters out there. He had a good year, defeating an undefeated Polish prospect in Szpilka and undefeated Cuban Mike Perez. Those 2 back-to-back victories in a single year are enough for an undefeated prospect like Jennings to be considered a legitimate top 10 contender, which is perfectly acceptable for Klitschko's non-mandatory defense. As for Jennings' actual chances, I agree that they are slim, but he is undeniably a legit challenger and among other things it shows how good Wladimir is.
Yeah, and it gets boring already. Especially before the Pulev fight there was a pretty solid number of people predicting Wlad losing. They all vanished after the fighter and were replaced by "mismatch" and "wladfightingbums" statements.
