Wilder has talent but his lack of competition is going to bite him in the ass. Povetkin means business these days.
And then the fight get made and Wilder goes on to beat the shyt out of pillsbury dough boy. After the fight, here comes the the excuses. "Wilder only likes to fight in America with own referee"
No doubt... And a great champion he would be. I don't think people realize how good Povetkin is, some at least. He would be relevant in ANY era, top 5 HW in any period.
Hopefully Wilder will tell Haymon to make it happen, but you know Haymon is going to try to wiggle out of that fight.
I don't think Wilder will fight him. I think AP would be the favorite going into the fight. Why would he risk fighting AP for a mandatory defense if he has the opportunity to make much more fighting Wlad for an all-in Unification bout?
If Wilder beats Povetkin that would be a HELL of a win. You would have to respect Wilder for that. A loss doesn't mean he is a bum either,but this is ESB so...
That's gonna be a tough ass fight for Wilder. Everything Wilder has will get tested in that fight, looking forward to it.
I think Povetkin would school Wilder. I didn't like Wilder's performance against Stiverne. Povetkin-Wilder is a very interesting fight. But I don't know what will happen first, Wilder-Klitschko or Wilder-Povetkin?
