    Figures he might do then rather then try to earn another title shot beating contenders. Said it a while back, my guess was DW will only want to fight for titles....or retire.

    Wilder should give Zelenoff his rematch after being robbed on Wilder's home turf.

    Yeah he should. He took an inhuman amount of punishment and it doesn't get better against the elites.

    The Joshua fight and with that a shitload of money I reckon is still on the table.

    He should wait at least a couple of months before making a decision.

    I'm not going to watch some dude talk on YouTube. What did Wilder actually say regarding retirement?

    He quoted a Wilder interview where he said he had done everything he set out to do in boxing and is finacially secure and may look at other things to do with his life.

    It would be a very sensible move on his part. He took this thing unbelievably far.

    Should he retire? yeah probably,, will he? no. Ego and a boatload of cash will have him taking a fight probably in 2023 , a cash out more or less against someone not named Fury.

    Even if I dislike wilder I have to say he is the type to be the best or don't fight at all because he can't accept to be beaten. Fury beat the hell out of him and wilder finally accepts he is not the best
