    He's a legit threat that Wilder might well beat, but a real threat compared to anyone else on his resume.
    Wilders people are business men 1rst, and foremost.
    The want a Fury, or Joshua fight.....PERIOD!
    I don't blame them either. Those 2 fights will net more that a Povetkin fight will.
    It only makes sense from a business standpoint to play chess, try to get the biggest fight possible if your going to take a risk.
    All of this at expense of the fans who are rightly impatient with the way fighters at the top are sluggishly moved, and promoted in North America.

    Ask Wilder what he sees, and why he feels the need to ask for countless voluntaries and avoid him. If he was such a bum, Wilder would have kept the fight on instead of hightailing it out of London back to the honkytonks.

    Well it took Wilder several rounds to get Titty out of there, I'd say Povetkin would go near the end of the fight before he's blasted out. And let's stop with the glass chin stuff. Stiverne ended that. Titty lost his power all together but still, enough of that talk until he really gets KO'd. Yes he sucks but his jaw aint nowhere near bad as RJJ, Khan, or any of the other consistant cover boys of The Chin Times.
