    If he beat #1 contender Povetkin...but he won't. Won't even fight him.

    He has the belt. There is no "worthy"

    The belts are simply political trinkets

    Wilder has to beat Wladimir or else he´s still just another contender. Who gives a **** about belts?

    Funny thing is Povetkin is rated higher than Wilder by consensus. More proof that the WBC HW title is just a western trinket atm.

    But yeah if he beats Povetkin convincingly I'm sold on Wilder as a legit threat to Wlad.
    I'd favor Povetkin though.
