Interesting fight but horrible matchmaking by team Jennings. I still don't think it will happen, but then maybe team Jennings is just that dumb. Wach isn't ranked or respected as a top 15 HW, a victory won't indisputably establish Jennings as a contender or put him in a mandatory spot. And frankly, this is a bad matchup for Jennings and I see this ending in a brutal ko by Wach over Jennings. He could have fought Adamek, Pulev, Fury, all for way more money, way more respect and or mandatory positioning, and comparable risk, especially Adamek. Plus, losses with them had a better chance of being by decision, as opposed to ko. Anyway, Wach has done better with better opposition than Jennings, can take anything Jennings can offer, and if Bowie freakin Tupou can knock Jennings down, I really don't see Jennings lasting a full fight without getting ko'd. The shot Wach gave Wlad would kick Jennings out of the ring, and Jennings defense isn't nearly as good as Wlad's. Wach KO 9.

Garbage fight. Wach is slow and extrenely limited. Yes he's big but size in itself doesn't win fights. Wach isn't a big puncher. KOs have come against low level opponents.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
Jennings wins easily. Not a competitive fight.Comment

This fight is not happening, Wach shat himself(confirmed by his promoter). I believe he is gonna be release from his contract with Global Boxing. He though that 5 weeks is to little to prepare(even tho he was in training for weeks now). HBO is not happy.
With Szpilka - Zimnoch falling apart i belivie Szpilka may replace Wach as they were talking with HBO about Szpilka for some time now, now thats a fight a want to see.Comment

Love this fight! Hopefully it sets him up for a Pulev, Thompson, or Chisora fight before Wlad in late '14.
Jennings has been quiet but glad he is atleasy taking a step up in the right direction
