    Any one of several opponents on the undercard would be fine with me. Kauffman is probably the one I'd least prefer, though he isn't the worst choice given the circumstances.

    If it's Washington I won't complain. In fact I might even commend Wilder for taking on a guy like that at short notice and coming back from injury. It's at least as good as Joshua vs Breazeale, and possibly a step above anyone he's defended against thus far.

    Are we picking the person he will fight or what occupation he will be from?

    I believe in Parker's chin,heart, and durability more than that of Wilder's.. And Parker has the speed and dimensions to lay Deontay out

    You can argue that Wilder has fought the "tougher" competition to date so maybe DW also has chin, heart and durability. I distinctly recall you mentioning Dustin would also KO Wilder at this point in the game so if Parker doesn't spark out Wilder in 2 rounds would you consider Parker a failure or would you say it was more like DW is lucky.

    Price would be nice for Tay. I mean his chin is horrible but at least he can punch a little.

    They need to force the fraud to fight a legit top 10 guy

    Definitely but they won't because they are helping to keep the belt hostage

    Helenius is ranked #29 by the WBC. The other 3 are eligible though.

    Helenius is shot and has no power after his shoulder injury

    Wach is shot

    Washington at least is tall but is mediocre

    Rudenko is barley 6'0 and couldn't even beat Hughie Fury or Lucas Browne

    Looks like a typical list of handpicked Wilder opponents. This is nothing new.
