    Someone suggested that it was going to be Eric Molina... I hope not.

    It would be nice if it was Povetkin.

    :good

    I'm guessing it won't be any top 5 ranked fighter though.

    Povetkin has a fight with Perez

    Wilder is supposed to fight the winner of that fight after his next fight

    If Wlad Fury is a goer then Windy will have to face Povetkin this year, oh dear.

    I'm sure it will be Artur Spzilka. He signed with Haymon right before the Wilder-Stiverne fight ... most likely for this very reason.

    That would make Pianeta and Mormeck look decent.

    I'd like to see him fight Tony Thompson. Would be a good s**** with Wilder winning by devastating KO in the later rounds.

    The janitor from his highschool, that cabdriver with the unibrown down on fifth street and that lady boy from china town who he lost his virginity to. Many possibilities :think

    Well we couldn't see deontay wilder becoming champ and you saw how that turned out lol. So Thompson WBC Champ is definitely in the realms of possibility.
