Comments Thread For: Wach Withdraws From HBO Bout With Bryant Jennings

[-PANDA-]

I guess Wach got some pointers in ducking fights when he was sparring Haye

Fury's handlers should try and make this fight asap, great exposure...both are ranked undefeated heavyweights in their prime...HBO probably won't put the money up for it though

I guess its better then pulling a Tor Hamer.

Bryant Jennings has Wach shook.

this is a perfect opportunity for both Jennings & wach but wach is the one who would need this more as Jennings is ranked by all the bodies. makes no sense not to fight him unless his handlers have a bigger fight. what could be bigger then an HBO undercard spot at this point? is he getting a main event slot in Europe or another card in the US? I don't know why he wouldn't want this fight even if he feels he should be getting more.

No reason from Wach?

it says he withdrew because he isn't getting paid enough... I have said several times that the abdusalamov tragedy might make it difficult to make big HW fights for awhile because of the health risk. fighters will want to be paid more or they won't take as many risks if they feel it is not worth it financially.

Hopefully he does a uturn.they both need this a fight of this magnitude,it's kinda like Perez v Magomed,it'll propel them to the next level.despite the outcome of the Magmoed fight,Mago was well respected in the loss,obviously before the injury/coma news broke.he went 10 gruelling rounds with an expert boxer who packs world class power,I don't think Jennings is on Perez level,and it isn't a fight I would encourage Jennings to take,I actually think Wach beats Jennings,but its a dangerous fight for both.itll be competitive,and the loser unless he's totally outclassed wont suffer any major setbacks except maybe Jennings ranking with the IBF,which is pretty high I believe maybe even his WBC too,I can't remember.

it is a good fight for both. wach needs it more at this point so i'm a little surprised he pulled out.

Yeh I think both are there to be exposed,but don't see either giving each other too much trouble,having said that though Wach packs a real heavy right hand.Jennings really has yet to step it up in class and props to him if he wanted Wach.

I watched the Jennings Fedesov fight,didn't he have him hurt ? I seem to remember wishing the fight had gone on longer so we could have known more about Jennings.was it stopped on cuts ?ive seen most of Jennings fights,he's been on a few of the Adamek undercards,and I thought he was all wrong for Adamek with his freakish reach advantage,also his athleticism.hes got that natural athletes body like David Haye,but for me he's more skilled,especially that jab he utilises.

Jennings is alright but it is amazing that so many of the top guys refuse to fight him. At this point he appears beatable but nobody wants to take the chance.
