Comments Thread For: Jared Anderson To Make Quick Turnaround Against Andrii Rudenko On ESPN 8/26 In Tulsa

Fight again within 2 months isn't a step back. Staying active isn't what many fighters do these days. And he's still young and learning

The level of opponent is very much a step back.

Derek chisora would of been a decent shout for a fight. But they ain't gonna pay chisora the money he'd probably want. Rudenko is a guy who comes with little ambition but he's usually durable

Um lol Rudenko is heavier than guys like Deontay Wilder, ecft. Rudenko turned pro at 240 pounds which is heavier than Anthony Josha, Wladimir Klistchko when they turned pro. Rudenko isn't much lighter than Tyson Fury's not fat weight. So Rudenko isn't small but he is shorter than the average heavyweight.

He's maybe 6 feet, that's small for a HW, I didn't say he's light. Anderson will have a huge height and reach advantage and they will probably be around similar weight, but Anderson will certainly be in much better shape

It's good for Anderson to fight regularly. After the Rudenko fight, l would love to see him fight Robert Helenius.

Lol he is short for a heavyweight kid. Maybe learn the difference between being short and being small. If you can't grasp that then maybe you should stick to watching pro rasslin.Also kid being taller than somebody doesn't give you any advantage. I never heard anybody say that since Mike Tyson was 5'10 that 6'5/6'6 guys like Tony Tucker, Tyrell Biggs, Mitch "Blood" Green, ect had any advantage over Tyson because they were taller and had a longer reach.

Is anyone else starting to get the feeling Bob ain't paying Jared his worth! After coming off the fight he just had, hell I would be on break but if he not paying you sh_t I guess you have to fight often That's why Floyd, Crawford and others have moved on.

How would you know that? Very few fighters who aren't at world level yet are making big money. I think it's good that he stays busy at his age. As long as he didn't get cut or injured he's fine. Sure he took a few knocks against Martin but it's all part of the game. He's young and strong and is in a growing phase so the experience is good for him.
