I wonder how much HBO will invest into Jennings. They don't really have a lot of HW's to show on there.
Who is Mike Perez with again?

i'm thinking it's do or die here. it's put up or shut up. he loses to wach he will be back on NBC or espn... bowie tupou hurt him so there is no doubt wach can hurt him...

Great matchup for the young up-and-coming Jennings. Wach is as solid top 10-15 hw and is a huge challenge for Bryant. After years of stagnation in the hw division, save for the KBros, we're finally getting good matchups and exciting young and promising contenders - like Jennings, Wilder, Fury, Ruiz

good matchup & important fight for both...

[ShoulderRoll]

I mean... I guess that's a step up... but Wach isn that god to begin with

Klitschko legitimized Wach by fighting him. If he's good enough to challenge for the championship then he's good enough for a contender to fight him.

I just hope Jennings requests good drug testing for this fight.

Oh yea, thanks. It's good he has no allegiance to either network

I don't know if it's taht soon for that, but then again this is the big stage and he needs to show why he needs to be there and we need to pay attention to hi

Yeah, they went bust on Seth Mitchell. They still have Arreola and his fat younger brother Andy Ruiz

I think Ruiz will be an HBO favorite being a HW with speed, being Mexican and his weight being a gimmick to sell

Jennings should dominate Wach (keyword is should)...

The question that will be asked of him against Wach will be if his stamina and/or power is elite. If one or the other turn out to be, Jennings will either win a decision or force a stoppage (possibly due to facial damage accumulation). If neither are, he will be stopped late.

the reason I say that is he was given an opportunity by Kathy duva & she kept him busy but then he left & turned down a couple big fights including an IBF eliminator. he beat liakhovich but after wilder destroyed him next his win over sergei is questionable now. how far gone was liakhovich? he may have burned that duva bridge so if he doesn't beat wach will he try & go back to duva? where does he go from there? some one will sign him but will they get the same tv opportunities?

i'm considering going to this card in Quebec. I got an $840 flight credit....hhhmmmm good HW scrap, a cool city for 3 days & a solid main event. I bet a couple other Canadian HW will be on the card as well. bence maybe?

[No.]

Wach is honestly up there with the worst of the worst fighters to ever contend for a "legit" Heavyweight title. I don't see how Jennings even loses a round here. And i don't rate Jennings tremendously high. Although he probably beats 95% of todays pathethic crop of top Heavyweight contenders/prospects.

Wach is slow, lumbering & clumsy and has shown nary a trace of boxing ability and is borderline feather fisted, so he doesn't really even have a puncher's chance. And he doesn't have a prayer of winning rds against Jennings. Bowie Tapou & that Russian dude Jennings fought in his last outing just might be better boxers than Wach.

[Slowhand]

Jennings obviously has the speed and skill here, but Wach is huge and has some power and a chin of iron. The question is can Jennings go full distance without making a silly mistake or gassing out.. good test for Jennings.
