    If you're not ready to face your mandatory due to recovering from injury, you haven't recovered from injury. Tune-up fights are BS, especially in this case. Wilder is likely to injure himself against a tune-up as he would his mandatory, making the argument of "he needs a tune-up first" completely BS.

    Either fight his next in line, or wait until he gets stripped.

    NakiFan has spoken.

    out.

    Wilder owns the WBC HW USA strap.

    He answers to no one other than the US based execs of the WBC who are only interested in having the USA HW champion of the world. So long as there is not a better American HW out there than Wilder, he will continue to knock over bums and windmill cab drivers and bouncers.

    However as soon as there is a better US based HW than Wilder, he will be forced to face them and then he will just be a footnote in history

    Ahh someone who speaks sense at last,my point exactly about the tune ups,don't forget he injured himself against at totally out of shape,shot opponent who had no chance in the world of ever beating Wilder,why risk injury against two more bums when he could be dishing it out to Povetkin or someone else that represents a challenge,Deontay Wilder has fought nobody remotely good enough to challenge him yet and it looks like he's gonna hold up his belt as long as possible?

    Vitali fought Peter after four years out with an injury. Wilder is making himself even more of a joke than he already is. We all seen how good Wilder is when he was outclassed by Szpilka who was not even a top 20 fighter. As soon as Wilder faces Povetkin, Wladimir, Joshua, Haye, or Fury it is all over.
    I have never heard of a belt holder cherry picking the weakest fighter he is allowed to face for every single fight. It has to be the most pathetic run in history, and even the weak barely top 50 fighters like Molina he faces seem to give him a lot of trouble. Really embarrassing stuff.

    Hilarious. There is no 'man' right now and if there was it certainly wouldn't be the guy who just beat the corpse that is Arreola or made Szpilka look like like SRL before his power bailed him out.

    I get your point but sometimes the extent of an injury cannot be determined until a fighter gets in the ring. Tune ups in this case are a way of gauging if your performance is anywhere near your post-injury state as well as easing off any ring rust that may have been sustained in the convalescence period. It's frustrating that he appears to be putting off his mandatory yet again, but one thing in his favour is that he'll probably get both fights over and done with fairly soon.
