    Seems like this could be likely for the vacant title if Brook decides not to face O'Donnell....Real 50-50 fight for me....if I was forced to pick I would go for Jennings although I haven't seen Jennings since the Cotto fight and hes getting on a bit.

    Big shame Brook-Jennings never came off, it would have been a great indicator to what level Brook is at.

    Jennings would have too much for him imo, he'd win a decision. Good fight hope this one comes off, can't wait to see Mick back in the ring

    Very good fight. Both these guys haven't been that active lately but I think Jennings has enough to win this on points.

    Jennings well rounded fundamentals vs O'Donnell's Tall Awkward Southpaw Stance that never seems to be used to greatest of effects.

    Early pick would be Jennings to win due to having a better in ring IQ and footwork and fundamentals. I never seen O'Donnel in full effect using these world class skills people speak of. He's awkward and does show decent ability but beating up Tom Glover is another thing compared to boxing Jennings.

    Is Jennings hungry enough? Is O'Donnell good enough?

    Those are the two questions that instantly spring to mind. If Jennings still feels that he has a future in this game then I think that he knows a little bit too much for him and will win on points.

    I hope Craig Watson can get back into the mix aswell, I thought he was very unlucky not to get the decision over O'Donnell and equally unlucky not to get a rematch...and this to the fact he was the last man to beat Matty Hatton he deserves to be mentioned
