For the record, Jennings is not a "typical euro fighter with a padded record"

    And there has to be some way he's climbed to #2 in the WBO rankings.
    like i said, he has a respectable resume and has come out on top out of pile of the good domestic British fighters around his weight so he is deserving of his shot, it's just that his base skill level is not really what i would consider world class

    also i think UK vs. USA boxing events have become very profitable

      Size wise Lockett had no business at middleweight, it's not like he even had good skills to begin with. He was a decent ****er and that diminished at the weight.

      Jennings>Lockett, imo.

      Obviously he still gets a whooping. But he has a better defence and better fundamentals than the aggressive and miniscule at middleweight Lockett.

      I think he'll reach around round 7 and get stopped.

        definitely

        to be honest i barely knew anything about Lockett before he landed the Pavlik fight

        i think Jennings could get brutalised pretty badly in this fight with Cotto though and he'll do well to make it past the half way mark, i think stylistically he just doesn't have enough to keep Cotto off him

          Was that technical style you see now in Europe always the style there I'm asking earnestly. Did Max Schmelling fight that style or it that a modern creation? The bolshevik spirit crushing atheist materialism permeates even into boxing because thats what that style reflects it the anti-thesis of European.

            This humour is beyond the comprehension of almost everybody.

            Green K for being the most unique Alt, and clearly an Alt that was made to satisfy just you and you alone. Quality!

            I imagine it's similar to that feeling of elation I get out of secretly farting on my girlfriend when she's asleep.

              Does that even mean anything?

              Who's style are you refering too? because Hatton fights differently to Calzaghe who fights differently to Haye, who fights differently to naz, who fought diferently to lewis, who style resembles nothing like Nelson's....

                I think that's a beautiful sentence.

                You can read it and read it, and still make no sense of it.

                It's quite hard to do that in actuality using real words in a coherant sentence.lol

                  I dont think the British really picked up that sewage who are all the fighters you named.
