I can't see anything other than a dominant win for Klitschko and a KO pretty early, Jennings is a good fighter at a certain level but its gonna take someone special to beat Wladimir

Bryant always has a punchers chance and is athletic and mobile but I think he lacks experience to overcome Wlad

Klitschko KO3

[crusader]

Wlad doesn't tend to stop opponents that early even when I think he's capable of it. I suspect Jennings will be out of his depth but I think he'll at least make it to the middle rounds.

I'm thinking he might get tagged early the way Mitchell did against Banks and will fold,I do hope it goes some rounds though and Jennings makes a fist of it

[Freedom2013]

It's a bad mistake for Klitschko to overlook Jennings & talk about Fury. Bryant has the speed & skill to get to Wladimir's chin.

I just don't think he has the power.

He doesn't have the skill either. Lots of people seem to be confusing athleticism with boxing skill . . Jennings still makes a lot of amateurish moves in the ring.

I just don't think he has the power.

Nearly any HW has the power to KO his opponent if he lands flush, unless the opponent has an iron chin like McCall or Wach. And Klitschko doesn't have an iron chin.

I'm not saying Jennings will knock him out, I'm saying it's not impossible.

I agree with that. Jennings has a small chance to win by KO. A decision win by Jennings would be more surprising, which is why the odds of that ares something like 28-1.

[Mysticstrider]

If Klitshko is going to win this fight more than likely, what prediction do you guys think he will win by? Decision, or KO/TKO and which rounds? He had a KO and TKO his last 2 fights at round 5, I don't know about this one though... hard to predict. I would say Round 3-4.

I would just guess middle rounds, perhaps round 6. Jennings has some ability and Wlad is patient.

"Size" shouldn't be a big issue as Wlad is about 3'' taller, but Jennings has 3'' longer reach.

[pound per pound]

Wlad doesn't tend to stop opponents that early even when I think he's capable of it. I suspect Jennings will be out of his depth but I think he'll at least make it to the middle rounds.

It all depends on Jennings. If he moves around and plays it safe it could be an Eddie Chambers type of fight. My best guess is Jennings is going to try and win, and get caught with a right hand or hook early in the fight.

It's a bad mistake for Klitschko to overlook Jennings & talk about Fury. Bryant has the speed & skill to get to Wladimir's chin.

He doesn't have the skill either. Lots of people seem to be confusing athleticism with boxing skill . . Jennings still makes a lot of amateurish moves in the ring.

This, I've been hearing a few things about this guy having skill, but I don't see it at all. He's sluggish, no power, no real accuracy. Wlad can end this any time he wants. And the depression that is the heavyweight division rolls on. But then again, when you've got Klit scared of throwing the right hand against bums like Pianeta, who knows how long the contest can be drawn out for.

[koolkc107]

Can't see a guy who struggled his last fight (with a decent but not elite fighter)doing anything to Wlad.

[victor-romeo]

Wlad has a weak chin, and a past history of stamina problems, Wlad now past prime around 38 years old, any time Wlad goes out on a boxing adventure, it has the potential for disaster, that said common sense would dictate that all of Wlads much greater experience and talent vs Jennings should prevail easily.

[diddy]

Wlad doesn't get hit flush. So the chin doesn't matter. Hasn't mattered in a decade.

[Shirow]

I'm worried this might be a stinker and Wlad will be banished to Germany for another 7 years. Wlad fights smaller athletic fighters cautiously. He's too big for athletic smaller fighters and too athletic for big fighters.

It seems to be the Kronk template used for Lennox & Wlad. Holyfield/Chambers types are fought very cautiously Grant/Pulev are jumped on.

This could look a lot like the Haye fight with Jennings moving too much unable to figure out how to land one shot at a time and Wlad trying to chase him down to land jabs. I see a late stoppage or landslide UD.

[Freedom2013]

Charles Martin just KOed Tom Dallas.

[hurricanemitch14]

Why is the ring white every Wlad fight. White ass ring gives me headaches. I thought it was a euro thing bit we in the states now. Blue ring dammit!!!!!

[crusader]

Competitive, fairly entertaining fight between Ali and Santana.

I have it 96-94 Ali.

[crusader]

100-90 (joke card)
97-93 x2

Ali UD in a fight that was more competitive than the cards suggest

yep sadam for me, how many times can you say that

[brilo33]

lets get in on,ring walk now

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

Suddenly got a sneaking feeling that Jennings was picked as a known slow starter and Wlad is going to try to overwhelm him quickly and make a statement.
