jennings has a better resume than fury at the moment

I enjoyed that. thanks for the laugh.

I don't know how well known Jennings is in the US, but I think he's the best heavyweight they have. His resume pisses all over Wilder's.
I don't think he's big enough to pose the same kind of threat to Wlad as Fury, but I still wouldn't call Jennings a cherry pick, unless I knew that Fury was correct about Wlad being scared of fighting him.
As I said, Jennings makes a lot of sense for Wlad, unless the WBO decide to strip him for not fighting Fury.

Pisses all over his resume? Wilder's resume is bad. But so is Jennings' for a heavyweight title contender. An out of shape Mike Perez who he probably lost to anyway and Szpilka is hardly the stuff of dreams. Add to that, he's very unentertaining in the ring. At least Wilder is knocking his guys out left, right and centre.

Jennings is the definition of a cherry pick. Why pack it in? It's an absolute cherry pick made to make Wlad look good on American soil.

I don't think Wlad is scared of Fury, come on. The guy is a 10 year heavyweight champion. He's not scared. He's just making business.

how is beating a shot, blown-up cunningham and a past-prime, uninterested chisora better than beating perez and szpilka? i still consider fury a prospect. he should fight someone like wach or charr or takam next.

How the hell was Cunningham shot? are you serious? The guy was coming off what should have been a victory over Adamek who was a top 10 contender ffs.

Who is Szpilka? Who'd he beat?

Tyson Fury's last win is better than Jennings' whole resume put together. Chisora was interested, Fury just schooled him.

lol @ Wach or Charr. They are both crap. I don't really care who he fights, but I know that he'd be criticized if he fought anyone on Jennings' resume.

uh, i think we have irreconcilably differing opinions on chisora.

Yes, I have the right one and you have the wrong one.

Don't hide though, explain to me how Cunningham was shot and how Szpilka in any world was a better win than that?

chisora is shite mate. his whole reputation is predicated on one decent showing against vitali klitschko in which he lost virtually every round. and the helenius fight, i guess. apart from that he's looked consistently mediocre in every fight he's had.

cunningham used to be pretty good... at cruiserweight in 2007.

szpilka was at least young and on a winning streak. and he picked up a decent win directly after losing to jennings, which is always a boost (note that it was against the same guy who apparently validates cunningham as a heavyweight to you). i'm not saying he's particularly good, just no shitter than fury's opposition for the most part.

perez is a good heavyweight, in my opinion, albeit an underachiever.

If Wlad beats both Fury and the WBC champ next year then yes, he has a great shot at finally being FOTY but I think the Fury fight will happen, at it's earliest, in 2016. Wlad will fight against Jennings and then, in the final part of the year, face the WBC champ, with whoever that is, squeezing in a defence beforehand.

[Japanese Badass]

He should go and destroy Fury first.

He didn't lose every round to Klitschko. I was live for that fight and most at press row had it 9-3 or 8-4, but most of the rounds were competitive. What about Chisora virtually winning every round against Helenius? He was ranked #1 by some govs and a solid top 10 contender then. Why 'i guess'? That is a better win than anyone Jennings beat or anyone Szpilka, Perez or Liahkovic ever beat.

Add to that, he was very competitive vs Haye before the stoppage, took Malik Scott's 0 as well as beating various other fighters.

So, Cunningham was robbed off what would have been the best win of his career against a top heavyweight, yet he was shot? You're having a laugh mate. He's added another couple of impressive wins to his resume after the Fury fight too - which validates Szpilka in your opinion.

Although of course, Cunningham beat an adamek who was a top 10 contender, and Szpilka beat him coming off a loss and what was probably the last fight of his career.

Perez is an average heavyweight at best. He's certainly not proven as much as Chisora is. Who Fury beat twice. Or a Kevin Johnson or a Steve Cunningham.

There's no comparison between Fury's and Jennings' resume at all.
