Comments Thread For: Bryant Jennings on Why He Turned Down Luis Ortiz

[Bigg Rigg]

Goes twelve with klitschko with a mediocre performance and now thinks he's big ****. Bet he wants a whole lotta money. Smh joke ass ninjas these days man.

Unless he's trying to sit out his contract with Shaw to go back to Roc Nations... I dunno

[SUBZER0ED]

At first, I was thinking that Jennings should take a fight against Ortiz to stay busy. But on second thought, he did fight a championship fight and is ranked #5 by Ring. Why risk a fight with unranked Ortiz, who was busted for steroids at this point?

Jennings/Cunningham would be a good fight

Yes, you do. That's how losing when you get your shot works. You don't get to stay big money main event unless you have already had a big fanbase like Haye and Povetkin. He can either face other contenders to earn another shot, or face less-challenging opposition while waiting for a big chance for good money to fall into his lap.

What I will say in defence of Jennings though is that it probably wasn't a big offer, and with Ortiz using roids before you'd have to insist on testing which would be another chunk out of what he was getting.

What you said in defense is the reason he didn't take the fight. I agree that after a loss your purses may not be as much as your exposure may dwindle a little. But fighting Ortiz on the undercard of the undercard on front of a 3/4 empty venue for peanuts isn't a stop down. That's a step way down.

It's already nearly sold out.

Jennings vs Glazkov/Chagaev/Stiverne/Browne.

^Yes..

OR Ortiz, an unbeaten giant of rank.

Jennings has the "American Syndrome".

Shameful coward! Disgrace to the sport.
