    Um, Wilder was supposed to fight Povetkin immedietly after he beat Stiverne.
    But yes, Povetkin stepped aside this time.

    Umm no he wasn't.

    Wilder was Stiverne's mandatory. Povetkin didn't become mandatory until he beat Perez in May.

    Yep, my bad. Povetkin was the nr 1 contender but not the mandatory.
    Wilder was supposed to fight Jennings, who was his mandatory. This was to happen after the Stiverne fight, but Jennings opted to fight Wladimir, thus leaving Wilders schedule open.
    Wilder got approval for a voluntary fight with Molina and Povetkin became his new mandatory.
    (Got confused there a little)
    But why was the Duhaupas fight approved?

    People overrate him terribly because Wilder hasn't fought him yet so he is the boogie man until the fight is signed.

    I think they know povetkin is the easiest fight Wilder could have except for a Martin fight. People that are serious about povetkin beating Wilder, who aren't just trolling. Those people truly DKSAB. I've rarely if ever used Rogers phrase but, it's so true. Even supposed die hard fans are utterly clueless, if you were to take their opinions on here as their true beliefs

    Povetkin is now holding the fight back either way, can't really blame Wilder in any case.
