Jennerman is a long-time veteran who has been watched by most of us through the last seven years grinding on the regional scene. None of his losses are bad besides his first pro-fight loss.
Jennerman is a submission grappler with limited striking. He does have some quality output and his offense altogether isn’t bad. With that said his striking doesn’t match up with the majority in the TUF house.
On the other hand, on the mat perhaps he’s one of the strongest. He’s hard to put away and is super dangerous with his submissions. Jennerman can get out-grappled because his positioning isn’t great but you’ve got to be careful with his submission attack. Jennerman won’t win but he’s a good test for these younger guys trying to break through.
