Post fight analysis: Mike Perez vs Bryant Jennings: Jennings by SD.


   Unbeaten American Bryant "By BY" Jennings stays unbeaten after a very hard performance against former unbeaten Cuban Mike "The Rebel" Perez on last Saturday evening. He won that fight by a split decision and with a gifted 1 point, that ring referee took from Perez for hitting after the "break". Judges scored the fight 114-113, 115-112 for Jennings and 114-113 for Perez.
   
   I expected much more from Jennings, but he won the fight and that is most important. With this win he becomes mandatory number 1 for Stiverne-Wilder winner. Jennings is small for a heavyweight and he doesn't have big power in his hands and that makes almost impossible for him to win against Stiverne or Wilder, cause both of them are solid heavyweights with 1 punch knockout power, but that is in the future....
