    Ustinov is not near the top? Where do you hear these rumors? DO you think Ustinov will come to the states to fight? Easy win for Wilder.

    Vladimir Putin could knock Deontay Wilder off his stilts if he caught him on the chin. And as mentioned, his punches loop wider than windmills. He will be found out soon.

    True, but in the past boxers say they are fighting top opponents and it turns out to be a journeyman/fringe contender. Ustinov is ranked #7 by the IBF.

    Various places: boxing websites and boxing forums. It was from a comment by a very reliable Eastern European poster who has never been wrong in the past.
    It's a bit hard to believe, but MAYBE.

    His promoter is K-2. Other K-2 fighters have come to the USA, like Gennady Golovkin.
    Probably, but there's a slight risk. Ustinov is slow, telegraphs his punches and is very easy to hit, but he's strong and has decent power.

    CHEF is close to K-2 so he'd know if it is Ustinov.

    Until a fight is signed, they cannot announce it.

    A certain Brit promoter did that recently, claiming Wilder was fighting Chisora when there was no contract.

    So Chagaev, Ustinov, Boytsov, Mago, Dimitrenko, Glazkov, Liakhovich and Maskaev are the possible names. The last 2 names are not better than Chisora, gatekeepers these days and would represent stay busy, build up win for Wilder.

    We'll likely know who it will be by the end of this week.

    And yet again you show that you don't know ****. Dimitrenko has been rated by nearly all the sanctioning bodies in the top 10 in past, as high as #2 in some instances.

    If Wilder fights a Russian fighter, it will be an old out of shape x-fighter who is an alcoholic or a drug addict. He will have to fight Wilder on one week's notice, not have time to spar, or do any training. Vlad toyed with Wilder in sparring for the Wach fight, it was no contest. Wilder is not in Vitali or Vlad's class................

    Are Saureland co-promoting this fight? Boxrec seems to think so. Perhaps Wilder is fighting someone from that stable although they don't quite have any 'Russians' ready to fight. Being American an all Wilder probably means European but outside the Anglosphere when he said that. He could be up against Gerber or maybe even Helenius.

    If they fight, Ustinov will knock him out. It'll be a replay of Mitchell-Banks where Wilder will overextend himself trying to get an early knockout and wind up getting caught himself.

    I don't give a damn where Dimitrenko was ranked in the past. He was hyped on this forum just like Pulev is being hyped now. Man Dimitrenko got exsposed by feather punching Chambers for Christ sakes. Dimitrenko never beat anyone worth a damn. He is just pure ****. Wilder would murder Dimitrenko.
