Wladimir Klitschko Defeats Bryant Jennings

Wladimir Klitschko got more of a challenge than many expected, but still got the better of a determined Bryant Jennings.

Bryant Jennings had more success today against Wladimir Klitschko than just about anyone has in the last decade, but the previously undefeated American still came up short, as the champ made his 18th consecutive successful title defense today at Madison Square Garden.

Klitschko (64-3, 53 KO) won on scores of 116-111, 116-111, and 118-109, with SB Nation scoring it 116-111 for Klitschko, as well.

 But it was not an easy night for the Ukrainian superstar, who admitted as much after the fight, giving Jennings (19-1, 10 KO) plenty of credit. - culled
