    Jennings has shown some promise as viable up-and-coming hw contender; he's also shown some glaring flaws in his style, mainly due to his inexperience as pro.

    Jennings isn't gonna show Wlad anything that he hasn't seen before. I could see Jennings holding a high guard and Klitschko slowly and methodically breaking down his defense using his superior jab and right cross. If Jennings gets in punching range Wlad would easily hit him with the jab and then tie him up. Jennings isn't skilled or powerful enough to break through Wlad's iron tight defense.

    Suffice to say, not a good fight for Jennings.

    However, Jennings may be inclined to take this fight as he has been sidelined as he sits on his WBC mandatory challenger status. Against Wlad, it's a big $$ fight with not a lot of downside - well, except that he would take a beating

      Jennings is as good as any other opponent, except for the winner of Stiverne-Wilder.

      He doesn't have a great chance of winning, it's true. But then, who has?

        I can't see Jennings being that competitive. Stivernne is really the only fight I really want to see because I think Wilder just is garbage.

          Wlad K.O inside of 4-5 rounds.
          Jennings has no chance

            Klitschko's people said he isn't fighting in March, in April and right now Fury-Chisora winner, especially if Fury, would be the favorite.

              A lot of these HW's are so protected. When they end up fighting Wlad the gulf in class compared to who they've faced before is huge.

                I'd be cool with that

                  Yeah, I think Wlad beats him np. Too little.,

                    Yes Jennings to me is a decent legitimate top ten guy but he is way too small for his skill set to beat Wlad. He will get mugged on the inside and get destroyed on the outside. If Jennings were a bomber I would give him a punchers chance but he really is a boxer puncher in the mold of Michael Spinks at heavyweight.

                      I'm hearing that Klitschko and HBO want a Jennings fight on March 28,2015 at Barclay's Center. Wladdy just signed a 3 fight deal that will be extended after his next fight. Wladdy KO and his people have talked about fighting in US for next fight vs American. Assuming Wilder takes Stiverne fight then that would leave Jennings who fights in the NY area.

                      Klitschko has already tried to get Fury 3 times to fight him. He and his people thought that they had a deal for last St Patrick's Day weekend at MSG but Fury's people wanted domestic scraps first vs Haye and Chisora.

                      I would welcome a Fury fight but I don't think that his people do until he conquers England first it seems.
