Please for the love of boxing don't let Wlad get a sniff at this, at least for year. Let the current best HWs battle it out for the WBC strap then unifying with Wlad down the line.
Arreola will fight Stiverne for the title....................either one would knock Wilder out who has never fought anyone nearly ranked. Americans believe that Wilder is the greatest heavyweight of all time. LOL! Haye kicked Wilder's arse in sparring, made Wilder look drunk. Vladimir knocked Wilder down with a jab, beat his from ring post to ring post!!!!!!!
Stiverne wins a closer fight than the first and then fights a voluntary before fighting Wlad. Wlad becoming undisputed champion might make his decision to retire come quicker.
Ok, just to be sure.... You want the current best HW's to fight for the trinket (Wlad and Pulev according to almost every list available), but you also say you don't want Wlad to get it for at least a year... So I guess you mean Pulev (2) vs Povetkin (3) instead?!
