    Wilder should wait another 12 months until that 0.07mcg is flushed out of the system completely. Roidvetkin needs punishing. I personally think the wba should try and sanction a fight between Wilder and Fres Oquendo. It should set up a fight to face Chageav for the vacant title. Would love to see Deontay add that belt to his collection.

    A tournament to see who'll be facing off with champion Charlie Z?

    Charlie Z is a fine opponent, Sconiers is also ready to come out of retirement and spark Wilder once again.

    I would be really sad if this fight gets cancelled and we get a target-dummy instead.

    If the Wilder/Povektin match doesn't happen then both sides lose. The is the most winnable fight for Wilder that will take his career to the next level and shut his critics up. If this fight doesn't happen we'll see Wilder in with Molina type fighters for a while longer. There's no other HW with has good of a name as Povektin that has such a stylistic disadvantage. None.

    Nichols already tko'd him in their first fight, but I suppose Dustin should take him on for the strap. He deserves a payday being a fy cook so long
