Currently being discussed, Wilder being offered big money to take the fight. For me I prefer this than vs Ortiz, the build up will be hilarious.
Wilder don't want none of The Bodysnatcher. As Edwardo said on twitter, most likely Stiverne re-match.
It's not gonna be a tough fight it's gonna be a fighter that isn't in camp training that fighter Parker fought
Would be a great replacement. You could say a lot about whyte...but put him in the ring with godzilla he,d still come to fight. Could also be a great build up fight for wilder v joshua if wilder deals with him in good fashion.
You guys are insane. So they take a chance on a fighter with has previously been popped for steroids and banned for a year ... and he immediately runs to the medicine cabinet and gets caught again. And your idea of a "great replacement" is a fighter who was banned for TWO YEARS for PEDs. Like he's going to pass VADA testing. Right.
Ah right enough actually forgot he got popped for something a while back. Getting to the stage its hard to find guys that have either never been popped or dont look masively suspicious. Hes just gonna need to bite the bullet and take on fights...in the murky world of boxing by the looks of it.
No, its WAAAAAY worst, Ortiz I can see actually beating Wilder, Whyte has only a slight puncher's chance.
Hearn has already said this isn't happening as they reached out and were told Stiverne would be facing Wilder if the Ortiz fight fell through. Not sure what your sources are?
lol exactly I reckon he'd give him some real work to the body,no way Wilder will fight Whyte cause he's one of Hearns guys which means they wouldn't be able to pull their usual drama before the fight to call it off. The only time I believe Wilder fights anyone is if it's against one of Hearns guys
What could possibly go wrong by replacing one proven cheat who gets popped with another? There seems to be some real desperation on Whyte's side. He needs to beat some contenders, or at least one legit contender, to get himself back on track. A split over shopworn gatekeeper Chisora isn't enough to earn a title shot.
***** ass Ortiz. Anyways Whyte is easy to hit, he'll be taking bombs until he folds and is knocked out. Far as Whyte popping dirty before, well there's always going to be a risk but I take him for his word that he has learned his lesson. Besides that he doesn't look like a PED abuser because he needs something for his lack of stamina then. I like Whyte a lot, one of the more interesting personalities in boxing but he's more brave than brains. He's asking to get knocked out viciously. He can try a body attack but that's only going to make Wilder go more aggressive earlier then Whyte is done.
