    You re right.

    Charr is worse than shot Lyakhovic, Fedosov, Szpilka and, of course, Perez in Jennings resume.

    As for Rahman - he wasn't top-300 HW at the time of the fight.

    In his very next fight he got beaten by the 3-2 guy (Nansen) who had ONLY fight in 6 years and that was loss to 0-10 opponent.

    Another loss occured in 2008 - LKO1 to great Seiaute Ma'ilata 8-9-1.

    If you lose to a guy who had 1 fight in 5 years and that's a loss to 0-10 opponent, you're clearly not TOP-300 HW, right?

    But then he easily beat Rahman, who lost to Povetkin in previous fight:think

    Charr worse than a shot Lyakhovich or Szpilka?? I very much doubt it!

    Perez`? Jennings had an extremely close fight with the Cuban which could have gone either way.
    Nah! Povetkin's fight record is far better than Jennings' one.I dare to say that Takam(who beat Perez but was robbed of a deserved victory and only got a draw) is better than any opponent(with the exception of Wlad of course) Jennings has faced so far.Whats more Povetkin has also beaten the likes of Chambers,Chagaev,and so on.Povetkin also beat the best the world could offer at the amateurs.
    Come to think of it I even doubt that Jennings may be able to go the full route with the Russian olympic gold medalist.

    Povetkin has 5 years longer career and of course, deeper resume than Jennings.

    But Charr or completely shot Rahman arent his best wins.

    I'd rank Pov's wins
    1) Chagaev
    2) Chambers
    3) Takam
    4) Huck (controversial)
    5) Old Byrd
    6) Either Boswell or Charr

    Charr is the worst Vitali's title challenger and he clearly lost to jorneyman Duhaupas who had fought 12 hard rounds just 3 weeks before.
