    Damn he hasn't even announce his next fight yet and he's already ducking Povetkin :-(

    This forum is kind of a joke.

    Who turns down a guaranteed 10 million for a fight that might not happen for "good money as well"

    No one turns down a good "sure thing" for a maybe that might be or might not be, a good payday and thats IF they can even get a fight made.
    Whats not stopping Fury saying no thanks i will take my chance with Wlad and then wilders back to fighting cab drivers for $6.50 or what ever he has done for his entire professional career it just simply doesnt happen.

    I liken it to selling a car with a list price of $5000 and when someone comes along and offers $10,000 saying no thanks i might get a better offer.

    He's only just won the title perhaps it's a bit soon to start screaming about him ducking

    Its inconsistant tools like you that are making it a Joke, im Guessing when Wlad beats Jennings (which he will) and then 2 weeks latter if he said you know what i dont want to fight Fury next. You would be the first one calling Wlad a ducker

    No ones says they need to fight next week, and if it was a chump change offer i would fully agree that wilder should take his time and see whats available but when you turn down a career high guaranteed payday, its a duck

    It's not a duck, because it's not time to ****ing announce his next fight.

    The dust has hardly settled from his last fight.

    Guy get's a chance to relax.

    damn 10m? anyone got a source for this, Wilder should definitely take it. He has a way better chance against Povetkin than Wlad.

    :lol:

    You couldn't be more wrong you idiot

    I've never called Wlad a ducker

    You're the tool for making assumptions

    Personally, I think the word duck is used way too frequently by people like the OP.

    Kinda strange that you'd assume that I hate Wlad without any evidence what so ever. Suggests to me that you're a moron :lol:

    I disagree. This is a fight of two giant men and could be made to be a very big deal.

    Lewis/Grant was made into a big deal and neither were a draw. I didn't look for ppv numbers, but I remember that Lewis wasn't considered to be entertaining on this side of the pond. And Grant had already been exposed by Golota. David Letterman made a joke before this fight that Grant was a tomato can, even.

    Fury and Wilder are very charismatic big men that would make this fight ppv worthy in the lead up.

    This is the HW fight that I most want to see at the moment and would be good for boxing.

    Lol, if the shoe would be on the other foot , Povetkin would not fight Wilder, fact. He would fight some bums, make some dough and then fight Wilder, HWYweight marketing and cash flow generating 101......

    Wilder's people need to keep him far, far away from Povetkin. This version of Wilder would have his way with many heavies in the conensus top 20, but Sasha is too athletic, too disciplined and too experienced for him.
