Heavyweight contender Bryant Jennings movement and damaging body attack too much for Artue Szpilka, who averaged just 37 punches thrown per round, landing 24%. Jennings averaged 42 punches thrown per round, while landing 46% of his power shots.

Jennings showed some promise but has to do more than beat a glorified club fighter to get my attention....

Can't wait for Klitschko fans to hype up Jennings, who's decent I guess, better then most of these fat f**k heavyweights.
There's no point in them hyping him until he beats someone legit. I think he can beat a top 10 fighter, but he still has to do it.

I was there. Szpilka gassed out in the 10th (and consequentially left himself wide open) because he was trying to get the ko. What is not being reported is how Jennings was gassed early on and Szpilka didn't have time in the round to finish him. So, click on the complete version of the punch stats, it was closer than they are making it out to be (Artur made Jennings miss many of the wild head shots he was throwing during his random spurts). Yeah, Jennings had a higher work rate in regards to power shots but those were via body punches and to Jennings credit, Szpilka's shots were deflected by those weird arms of Jennings being held high for most of the bout. note: Jennings' mouth was bloodied and his head was all lumped up too (the pin got through). it is what it is
Ye they robbed szpulka hard. Those crooks!

What Perez doesn't have is ko power, but then again neither does Jennings...Perez is a technician, has a durable chin, a high workrate and good defense so Jennings would lose on points.
