I would have given Bryant Jennings a small chance IF....
.... IF I had not seen Wlad beat Pulev to a bloody pulp. IF Jennings last fight against Perez was more sensational than it was. But, I don't see how Jennings can win this fight. Especially since he said it will end in a KO win by him. Dream on!
He doesn't carry the power to stop Wlad, and plus, while busy, doesn't have the tools to get on the inside to hurt Wlad- as Wlad is now.
While fighting in NYC notwithstanding, fact of the matter is the only way Jennings can win this fight is if they rob Wlad. lololol... and an obvious robbery!!
Jennings will be ground to a creep and be out on his stool or by stoppage by 10.

Wlad will ensure the judges are neutral.
Jennings will have to try and be a real Rocky and take it to wlad.

He doesn't have the power to shake Wlad. Wlad will counterpunch and counterpunch much harder. It's a no win fight for Jennings. Skilled? Yes. But the tools to stop Wlad or cause Wlad to have to think seriously about throwing punches? Not that much skilled.
Re: I would have given Bryant Jennings a small chance IF....
I sort of feel about this fight the same way I felt when Eddie Chambers was about to fight Wladimir.
Eddie had some skills of his own, but no power to concern Wlad, and nothing so amazing that could cause Wlad any real difficulty. We all saw how that fight went.
Prior to that, there was Chris Byrd with a similar situation and that fight was also disappointing.
I think we're up for a fight similar to those. Wlad, having nothing to fear, just breaking down his much overmatched, out powered opponent.
Re: I would have given Bryant Jennings a small chance IF....
Agreed, and Jennings isn't as slippery as Chambers or Byrd were either. I like him, a good clean fighter with a high output for a big man, he always comes in great shape and thinks in the ring. Would be a real pick em fight between him and any other top HW, but I don't see how this is even competitive.
