Requests integrates tightly with urllib3. Trying to use an older version of the dependency (or a newer version) can wreak havoc. Try using requests 2.2.1 and urllib3 1.10 or 1.11. The right constraint is necessary to prevent Debian from needing to carry patches for compatibility. Upstream will not support anything for users that violates the existing restrictions.
