The first minute here has Klitschko looking a bit more open to throwing, as he’s working off of his vaunted jab. Jennings trying to move around and use his athleticism to disrupt Klitschko’s timing, and maybe find an opening if Wladimir gets uncharacteristically daring.
With a minute left in a pretty slow round they were getting tied up, and then a right hand from Klitschko grazed Jennings to the head. Jennings missed a hook at range, which wasn’t really close to landing. Wladimir’s jab has dominated the round here, and he’s looking pretty much like he always does. Jennings is having trouble getting off, which is also familiar in Klitschko fights, but for his opponents.
Jennings lunged in a couple times in the final moments of the round, but this was definitely a Wladimir round.
SB Nation scores the round 10-9 for Klitschko, putting him up 20-18
