Michael Jennings
Has anyone seen his Boxrec page lately? It has him fighting Kell Brook for the British and WBO eliminator... Then he has a fight booked in for the end of October against John O'Donnell for the Vacant British title? Have i missed something or is Kell Brook going to Vacate his title if he wins or loses?
Re: Michael Jennings
Think the Brirtish is already vacant and thats up for grabs in the odonnel fight.
Though need tow ait and see what happens in Brook fight first as Jennnings get knocked out he will no doubt miss the Oct date

Re: Michael Jennings
no chance will jennings fight in october, he will get stopped in september and not fight for about 4 monnths IMO
Re: Michael Jennings
Jennings takes some stopping and Brook is no Cotto. I can appreciate that Kell is a very good boxer with sharp hard punches but some people are really wetting themselves about him. I think that Michael boxes him off all night; Kell doesn't work week in and week out like Jennings; he'll get found out in the later rounds when Jennings goes through the gears.
Re: Michael Jennings
Jennings might not make it to the later rounds. The Cotto fight was a sparring session. He has also lost to young mutley. He will be on his bicycle quickly in this fight.

Re: Michael Jennings
I agree and Michael punches harder than anyone else that Kell has boxed. I hope that Brook is in great shape for the bout; I don't have to hope that Jennings is; he is very dedicated and I can't ever remember him clocking a bar manager or frequenting womens toilets. I think it will be a very good bout; Brook is good but people have been wetting themselves about him for 2 years or so. He is not a shoo in for a World Title; there are some very tough, skilled and fit lads to face first; Jennings may well have enough nouce to really cause trouble.mickey1975 wrote:Michael Jennings CAN boxSmokin Preedy wrote:Jennings has 2 hopes of winning...Bob and NO!
Re: Michael Jennings
I think Jennings will be a really good benchmark of Brook's ability to go further, but I do expect Kell to win by mid-rounds stoppage. Jennings has a nice classical style but I think lacks the pop and the 'extra gear' to really test Brook fully.
Re: Michael Jennings
We've seen enough of Jennings to know how good he is. The real question, how good is Kell Brook?
Re: Michael Jennings
Will be interesting to find out. I guess my own seeds of doubt regarding Jennings' level were sown in the Young Mutley fight, rather than the Cotto bout that everyone seems to be focused on. Fully realise that styles make fights though..MachoMan09 wrote:There is a bit of disrespect towards Michael Jennings in this topic.
As Deserter rightly says, Jennings will be a really good benchmark for Brook's potential - I disagree with the prediction of a mid-round stoppage, though. Split decision in Brook's favour after a memorable bout. Jennings will win the second half of the fight.
Re: Michael Jennings
Do you consider your own fight with Jennings as a real missed opportunity? You really had him hurt in the beginning and at the endsugar sweet wrote:jennings gets stopped by brooks ,thats a given,jennings got good workrate and thats it.

if jennings does make it past the 6th then i can only see him winning 2 or 3 rounds in the fight.
I thought he had a rep for boozing and blowing up in weight. sure i read that somewhere.

You two would be good again.
Michael can box well, move and mix it and will be very, very fit. I think Brook has his hands full over 12 as Michael wont collapse.
However, I haven't seen as much of Brook as I should however.
Re: Michael Jennings
Seriously, I see this being a relatively easy fight for Brook. Jennings best win was over Bradley Pryce, when I reckon Jennings was at his peak. I doubt, though, he could repeat thatDavidPayne wrote:Now, now Bradley.sugar sweet wrote:jennings gets stopped by brooks ,thats a given,jennings got good workrate and thats it.

win over a more mature Bradley Pryce...its a rematch I'd love to see, though.
Re: Michael Jennings
as sugar sweet rightly said mike has good workrate,which was good enough on the night to beat him,although a few other factors came in to the fight to mikes excellent recovery as nearly getting stoppped in the 1st and actually winning the second round,footwork etc etc.anyway jennings beats brook on the night in what will be a great fight,but i just see mike with a little to much nouse and experience to give brook a real nightmare of a fight

Re: Michael Jennings
Think people on here are under rating Jennings, he can cause Brook who is untested allsorts of problems, going for a Jennings UD.

Re: Michael Jennings
Good boxer is Jennings. I feel he might cause Brook a few problems but will get stopped at some point. For those of you you fancy Jennings for the upset, he is a massive underdog with the bookies. You can get him outright at 4-1 and closer to fight time if you want to bet on a Jennings points win, that will be about 7-1.
