    _WBC champion, but still calling himself a work in progress. I'm guessing that's an excuse to have soft touches in voluntary defences.
    _He has very good power, second after Wlad.
    _Good athleticism and height advantage, but limited skills and shaky chin may(probably will) hold him from becoming a respected champion.
    _Duhaupas is good test, but It's a test Wilder should've taken before he won the title. Might've been understandable even if it was the first title defence.
    _Leaving out Povetkin, Joshua and Stiverne, Takam and Jennings are the only worthy challengers in the rankings. Given the similarities between Povetkin and Takam, It should've been Takam.
    _There's no guarentee he'll get 16-17 million against Sasha when the fight is ordered, he should've taken the 10 mil euros when it was first offered. His team very clearly does not like his chances against Sasha.
    _I don't agree with the "glass jawed fraud" thing, he has the tools to be a legit contender but I don't see a true champion in him.

    Duhaupas is good

    And he didn't leave them out, we don't know what went on behind the scenes.

    And it was 10 million USD, not Euros from what I remember. Waiting for the purse bid would be far more beneficial to him. Even if he doesn't get 15-17, he'll definitely get more than 10. The Russian Oligarchs have already spoken, and they'll more than likely pay as much as they paid for the Wlad fight.

    If it was you, you wouldn't take it either, let's be serious here.

    Judging by history, I'm definitely not taking 10 million, I would definitely wait and bide my time, wait for the fight to get juicy

    You think he'll go Povetkin and not Wlad?

    Ask Houmzz if team Wilder tried to contact with Jennings or Takam by any means, he's our reliable source on HWs.

    I still think them refusing the first offer from Ryabinski meant they didn't want the fight. What if Povetkin had lost to Perez? Most people thought it was a close fight.

    No of that changes the fact he has no chin. None.

    It's a risk you have to take, what if Hearns/Leonard had lost during that 1 year of delay?

    It's a high risk high reward kinda fight.

    Dundee delayed it because he wanted the fight to get MASSIVE. :deal

    ? I'm not racist in the least, there are loads of black fighters that I don't like, and lots of fighters from different races that I like.

    It's about the fighter, not the colour of their skin.

    Stop accusing me! :nono

    That doesn't match his daugter's health situation, he shouldn't be taking risks with money.
