    And fight charles martin for ibf......so that means aj vs povetkin or lose his mandatory spot as number 1.....promotors teaming up to derail matchroom and aj?

    If he did vacate and Joshua didn't take the fight it would be Stiverne vs Povetkin for the vacant belt which isn't a bad fight.

    The WBC historically don't like unifications so I can see Wilder doing this to duck Povetkin although a unification would be better.

    Wilder is such a fraud.

    Something needs to be done about this joke of a "champion".

    Povetkin would easily best stiverne

    Imo he needs to dodge him!! AJ is nowhere near ready for Povetkin at this time but if they take it Hearn and AJ will get massive respect from me!!

    Does this rumour have any substance behind it? Or is it just a tweet that a few of your mates have shared around on twitter?

    It's a possibility because Wilder would have to face Povetkin in Russia which I doubt he fancies.
