    I'd guarantee Bryant Jennings would have given everyone you mentioned a very tough fight.

    Ali - Doug Jones should have beat him.
    Foreman - He was beat by Jimmy Young.
    Tyson - He was beat by Buster Douglas.

    Jennings was really good. Loved the body attack and head movement. I think he would beat Wilder or Fury.

    And that is what Povetkun should have done, as he said the clinching didn't stop his body attack so suck it again dino

    Jennings was like a more athletic Chuvalo, he is going to be hard work for anyone.

    And Wlad at 39 stood up to a monster body attack, great shape.

    Body attack?? What body attack?

    You mean the taps to Wlads sides in the clinch that were utterly ineffective? Go get a clue about this sport.

    Jennings can't punch, can't throw a jab or a real body shot. His foot work is horroundus and his punch technique is awful. His inside game was also weak.

    This fight showed what i was certain of all along - Wlad is overrated and would have lost a number of fights with proper officiating.

    He is 39 fukking years old. What other heavy do you judge in a historical context based on their performances at this age?

    Wladimir is in his prime.He couldn't knock out a featherfisted,unskilled nearly
    amateur fighter. Oh yes because his opponent wasn't fat.
    Foreman was much more older a DESTROYED the prime -nearly ATG- Moorer.
    (Moorer beat the prime ATG Holyfield).
    This Jennings fight proved wladimir is champion because he fight in an
    incredible weak era.

    Wladimir klitschko is in his 100% prime.The klitschko fanboys say
    Emmanuel changed everything by his magical power.
    Now wladboy must eat this situation.Laughable.

    Ah, this well reasoned MENSA member comes to the fore...

    Name me the heavyweights with 70 fights who were prime at 39.

    He couldn't pull the trigger on his right and barely on his hook.

    If you had eye***** you could see he was having an "old man night".

    I hope he retires. Tired of his act anyway.

    Only the pathetic losers use excuses.Now everybody knows
    the wladboys' god is just a mediocre fighter in a weak era.
    A nearly amateur,inexperienced featherfist was competitive against
    the prime wladimir.
    This Jennings fight proves wladimir couldn't surpass the Puritty level.
    At least "Puri" had a decent chin.

    Past prime yet harbouring the best stamina of his career.

    Although thats mostly down to Jennings being feather fisted. And thats down to terrible punch technique.

    This man absolutely hates the Klit's and Lennox the notion that he has"European Idols," is ridiculous nonsense.

    I agree. Except I wasn't tired of his last couple fights. Pretty much only Povetkin turned me off completely. I think this is probably over in 2016 anyway. One way or another.
