    Well, upon hearing that news millions of grandmothers that are living on a fixed income walked away from their telephone sets and returned to their knitting.

    A 5'11 fat cruiserweight with featherfist resembles Wlad. Now I've heard it all

    I hate to say this, but Glazkov is nothing special. He is just too small for the weight class. Wilder will win, possibly by stoppage.

    No way it's Glazkov. Look at the new WBC rankings. The blindingly obvious promotion into the top 15 is shot Adamek, who had his first win in 3 years against some bum. Perfect for Wilder

    Jennings would've been a clear step up. Glazkov is a guy who has received gift decisions over and over again. I would like to see Glazkov walk away with a clear victory before being rewarded with a match against anyone involving a major belt.

    I just do not think he deserves it.

    I couldn't pick him with any confidence over the guys I'd consider the current top 15 so think top 20 is a more accurate description. That's just my opinion though.

    He is taking every easy fight he could get now to block Povetkin and after he beat "whatever guy" he fights, negotiations with K2 will start.

    He won't risk the big payday with Wlad by fighting Povetkin.

    WBC will allow it cause ist a unification and Povetkin will have to wait...

    Thats the plan!

    .

    Glazkov is better than digging up another Molina
    or Duhaupuss which shouldn't have been ranked
    in the top 50 but the WBC allowed it anyway...

    before Molina and Duhaupuss there were names
    thrown around (bigger names) but nothing was
    signed and in the end they went with the least risky
    guy they could find for the cheapest price!!

    same will happen this time...

    :yep

    Glazkov would be a pretty good opponent.

    Cool. This should help us see where Wilder is in terms of development. If he makes mincemeat of Glazkov then I'll sit up and listen.

    You are bloody right in saying that Glazko wont risk his big payday in Germany for Wilder.
    Come on,guys,Glazkov would earn just a handful of peanuts if he fought Wilder on American soil.Why the hell should he do this? He will earn big bucks fighting Wlad in Germany for serious money-he is Wlad's mandatory.
    Wilder is just an American nobody.

    Oh, yeah, you are right. He is Wlads mando. I forgot. In that case I also don't see him fighting Wilder before Wlad.

    Wilder should fight Jennings then.
