    Well, there you have it. Finkel kinda admitted what most knew -that he's still a work in progress and not a real "champ", and also what most feared, that he won't fight Wlad anytime soon.



    So, at this point the once proud WBC Heavyweight belt is held by a guy who's not even compared to a challenger (like the guys that actually fight Wlad for the throne) but a "college prospect" by his own manager. And clearly with intention to milk the belt until they trow him in with the real fighters in the division...

    Wilder can not beat Povetkin. This might leave him no option but to go for klitachko.

    Why not indeed.

    I still think Fury would be a better fight.
    The build up would be fun too.

    We all know how this going to go guys. He is going to fight bums or fighters he matchup really well against and avoid all tough opponents. They will do everything they can to keep his 0 and his title. Basically we got a new Mayweather in the heavyweight division

    If you would bother reading his manager's quote, she specifically mentions Povetkin as a potential next fight.:patsch

    Why so many responses from pac****s on the first page of a Wilder hate thread?.....worried that he's taking attention away from pac?

    Wilder will have a real opponent soon, Povetkin/Perez/whoever will be his mando early 2016. Povetkin is a Silver champ which pretty much guarantees him a title shot.
