Why? He's the IBF #1. At least It'd save Wlad from a waste of time and It'd be good for Wilder to share the ring with someone who's a big amateur career a.k.a who's good at the fundamentals of the game before challenging Povetkin.
Looks like Povetkin will have to take alot more little drug tests, if he wants the priviledge to fighting Wilder. The bomb squad don't tolerate cheats. Glazkov is much more deserving of the opportunity. Back of the line Alexander, Deontay's got bigger fish to fry!
Well to be fair Wilder has set the bar pretty damn low. Glaskov is feather-fisted, gotten way too many gifts over not even top competition. He's absolutely no threat to Wilder, let alone Wlad. Him being rated #1 is a joke. He's may have been a big deal as an amateur, but this is the pros and his hasn't impressed one bit.
