Now that Povetkin has been named as Wilders Mando, how will he duck him for a 3rd time? The 1st time he disappeared back to Bama in a flash before the WBC even announced anything, and team wilder claimed the fight was 'off' when in reality it was only postponed as stated by the WBC. Wilder then went on to fight Burrito Boy instead of Povetkin who was found to be clean. The 2nd time he ducked Povetkin was after Wilders previous bout with Burrito boy, he claimed to have all kinds of hand 'injury's and needed 'surgery' which allowed him to be out for months and months and not face Povetkin.
Only way out is dropping the belt. But I think that he will face Povetkin. I know he's not exactly keen, but despite my ragging on him, he's got a chance to win this.
three hw champs at the moment. all three are completely unproven, and seem leery to face any challenge.
Let's be fair, he was intending to go to Russia and defend there. The fact that he did a triple somersault of joy and fled back to the States faster than a march hare when the Meldonium story broke doesn't nullify that fact.
He was in the UK training, and he would've faked an injury days before the bout i'm sure. look how easily he faked an injury after the arreola bout and got to avoid him again. Even if Povetkin didn't get the Meldonium situation the bout would'nt have happened.
Wilder wont be ready to fight for an year,then Povetkin will schedule fight and Wilder will make voluntary right after and Dinovelvet will claim that Povetkin is ducking him lol.
