Comments Thread For: Wilder on Jennings: My Skill Level is Way Beyond Him!

[PK3434]

Gary Shaw told espn that Wilder is not even considering Jennings as his next opponent.

[GOD-FR33]

Dude....

"My Skill Level is Way Beyond Him! ". No they are not Wilder. Smh. Jennings is a better fighter, hands down. Wilder is getting rocked and getting his eyes closed by F level guys. Smh. Based on Jennings fight against WK, he beats Wilder. I think Shannon Briggs beats Wilder as well. He's an arm puncher with no defense. Why is he so arrogant though?

[The Hammer]

Jennings would school Wilder.

That's why the craven Deontay is avoiding him.

Only one way to find out

why wasn't Wilder knocking the skill level of Duhaupus, Arreola, or Molina?? What a joke. If this guy ever actually kept his mouth shut and started fighting some real opponents I would have more respect for him. The fact that he is walking around with the WBC belt that has been held by real champions is a farce. He may be the heavyweight champion of Alabama, but he is not a 'world' champion.

[Calculating...]

Povetkin is coming

Watch now, soon (if not the next fight) Wilder will fight Brazil Nuts who barely got by a crafty Fred Kassi. I wish Wilder success, but for all the 'But he got better last fight' talk I read, he has serious flaws that are just a tough fight away from taking their toll. I don't think he has very good footwork at all, and is still too wild with his punches, and has huge gaps in his defense. It would actually be a great fight IMO with Jennings. Wlad praised him as a great athlete, future of the division. Wlad had to work more in that fight than most in recent memory. Wilder dissing Jennings INSTEAD OF FIGHTING HIM just means Wilder isn't ready for the challenge. And BTW, this clap trap of him dissing boxers who insist upon being paid at least a respectible fee is b.s. Wilder has been paid well from the very beginning. Certainly more than he's worth in many of his fights. That crapola of 'I got mine, skroo you' has never set well with me. Pay the man, and make the fight.

pretty much agree. jennings is a good defensive fighter but doesnt have enough pop to get it done against wilder. hed fight to survive like he did against wlad

Rubbish. The only thing correct there is the power differential. Jennings tried the entire fight vs Wlad. Only a fool didn't notice that little inconvenient reality.

[alexguiness]

This fight is essentially an Olympic sprinter vs an Nfl player.

Neither can claim to be 'skilled boxers'

[sicko]

Actually, NO they're not Wilder! I think Jennings can beat Wilder but I think this is a Bluff on Wilder's part. I don't think he is serious about fighting Jennings he is trying to get fans off of his back by talking up a fight with Jennings

I think it will be Mansour if he looks good vs Gerald Washington! I wouldn't have any problems with Wilder vs Mansour I think that would be a fun fight

Tony Thompson if he looks good and beat Malik Scott is also very possible.

Because he was coming back from hand survey for the right hand (his main weapon) that he injured against Stirvirne. Wilder wasn't even supposed to heal for six months according to doctor but fought within six months against Molina, and as any educated person would have seen, he threw his right hand the lowest number of times per punches thrown in his career in that fight, didn't even throw it at all for the first three rounds.

Lol, why you are think Povetkin was so keen to fight wilder straight out of surgery and then changed his tune completely when wilder wisely decided to ease his hand back into shape. Why you think Wilder's team chose dehaupus, a guy who never been knocked down before, for Wilder's second defense? Coz they needed to solid rounds to give Wilder the chance to punch out that right hand to confirm whetheritis fully recovered or not.

Before the dehaupus fight, wilder said his hand was 57 percent in the Molina fight and that it would be 90 and above to the dehaupus fight.

This is proven by the significantly increased activity of wilders right hand against dehaupus as opposed to Molina, and also by the change of tune in both wilders an pivetkins teams. Wilder now wants to fight Povetkin or any other top ten opponent (coz his hand is fully recovered) and Povetkin team changed their tune when they realised that Wilder's hand would have recovered by the time they fight if he fights dehaupus in sept, hence why they sabotaged the mandated negotiation date of October by taking a fight in november., as opposed to earlier when Povetkin wantedwilder in the ring with him like hory teenager (cause that right hand would not be a factor if the fought then.
