Comments Thread For: Jennings Concerned About Klitschko's Constant Holding

[dinkme]

I love all the people on here, getting mad at Jennings for pointing out the obvious. Wlad is nothing but a cheater and the refs let him get away with it every time. If the ref lets Wlad be a cheater yet again, then Jennings doesn't have much of a chance. If the ref actually enforces the rules, the Jennings has an awesome chance of winning. Kind of disgusting people are A OK with nothing but a cheater holding the Heavyweight title. Hopefully the ref will actually enforce the rules, but the ref is probably just bought and paid for. The Heavyweight champ of the world, shouldn't just be a guy who cheats his way to victory every time. Makes watching his fights, nothing but a joke.

It really is absurd. I can't believe no one ever says a word to him about it. It's cheating, no other way around it. Dude ran across the ring and clinched the second the bell rang against Pulev.

fast forward to 24:50

what a disgrace! he starts the fight by barreling towards pulev and immediately clinches him for 10 seconds. disgraceful cheat. how can anyone ignore this and proclaim him great? makes no sense. he's cheating therfore he's great? wat

[dinkme]

Hopefully Jennings, just low blows Wlad everytime he wants to cheat, hold, and lean on Jennings. Shouldn't be considered a low blow if wlad is forcing the shots low. He needs to take what Wlad gives him and punish him for cheating. Wlads not above cheating, so neither should Jennings.

2 clinches in the first 15 seconds. He didn't even throw a punch. And this is supposed to be "exciting" Wlad. The only exciting thing about that fight was that Pulev stood motionless in front of him and gave Wlad target practice he could KO. And Wlad still clinched too much.

what i don't understand is how he can cheat right in front of everyone and then after he wins everyone seems to forget what they just saw. he won again therefore his greatness grows...no he cheated again therefore nothing grew but the amount of corruption that allows this to happen.

I don't see Jennings getting inside like Povetkin did.. Wlad will keep this dude at bay and at the end of his jab.. I don't think we will see a lot of holding this fight

[KnockoutNed]

Wlad has long since taken John Ruiz's title of most egregious illegal clincher in HW history. Ruiz's clinched because he had no talent whatsoever, what's Wlad's excuse?

Have a Gameplan for it don't B1TCH ABOUT IT!

Annoying to hear Fans and Fighters b1tch about their opponents styles...NEWS FLASH JENNINGS, it is not your opponent job to make it easy for you to take his belts. Prepare yourself for all his Antics!

This doesn't sound like a confident guy, it sounds like a guy prepare an excuse for what he is going to lose!

Jennings is absolutely correct. Klitschko holds and leans on all of his opponents to try to get an advantage. The fact that he is so much bigger than his opponents allows him to get away with this. Tyson Fury does the same thing.

Jennings has to figure out a way to counter this dirty behavior, whether that is by taking a step back or to the side and hitting Klitschko when he tries to clinch, hitting him on the arms, hitting Klitschko in the nuts, throwing him to the ground or trying to break his arm when Klitschko clinches.

One thing is for sure. Complaining to the referee won't resolve the problem. There is a solution to every problem and Jennings has to figure out what the solution to this one is if he is going to win.
