There was no mandatory when he won the title.

Povetkin became the mandatory in May 2015.

Wilder offered Povetkin the fight in January (last weekend) ... which would've been inside the year date from when he won the title. But Povetkin's team turned it down.

Wilder wants to fight in April (a month before the May deadline). Povetkin's team wants the fight BY LATE SUMMER (and April or May isn't LATE SUMMER).

Wilder is meeting all the WBC guidelines with regard to dates. But the WBC mandatory is the one holding things up.

Povetkin declined the fight in January. And, according to his promoter, he isn't looking at April, either.

If the WBC mandatory doesn't want the fight ... the WBC can always name a new mandatory.

When will Wilder fight a real boxer, no more Molina's and Duapa's, these gyes won't make him ready for Fury or Klitschko, he needs Povetkin or he will get a reality check very soon.
