    About 3 - 4 months ago I heard that Wilder is gonna fight Andy Ruiz and about 2 months ago I heard that he's gonna fight AJ. After that, Wilder vs Usyk was reported and now I'm hearing the possibility of Wilder vs Fury 4. I'm so confusing right now.

    Another Helenius level guy.

    Wilder spend his whole career cherry-picking bums. He gets WAY too much credit for fighting Fury...people have already forgotten the context of Fury losing 150 pounds and kicking coke. Wilder merely believed that he was shot. He took the second fight because the knockdowns convinced him that he can win, and the third because he convinced his own crazy ass Fury cheated, but he will never again venture into the ring with a quality opponent.

    They made Wilder next for Usyk if the Ukrainian was about to play games about facing Dubois, thus procrastinating a mandatory defence and eventually get away with his usual one year of inactivity stalling the division even more, while waiting for the Saudi event. Now Wilder seems to be waiting for AJ and I hope both really intend to fight in December or any other time. It will also be nice to see Usyk-Wilder and Fury-AJ, but those are different talks.

    Wilder isn't a World champion. He's allowed to fight Helenius level foes.

    I'm hoping it's AJ and it should be AJ.

    The guy's 37 now and should be in it for the last few big money fights, what sense does it make fighting more Helenius/Szpilka/Arreola level guys and making 1-2mill?

    How much has Wilder earned in his last 7 fights? About 80m? The 3 Fury fights alone came to about 50m.

    He'd make that in 1 fight against AJ in Arabia.

    Think he’ll fight Andy Ruiz, both PBC both need to fight and Ruiz has some credibility having embarrassed Joshua at MSG.

    If the fight in Saudi vs AJ doesn’t happen Wilder will not be to blame, he seems to want all the smoke atm

    He should have fought by now. He has said August or September, but I doubt he finds anyone. Contrary to this board's belief, he has become inactive precisely because he doesn't want to fight lower level guys. He's looking for Joshua or Usyk and probably will face AJ in December, but I think he needs a fight prior to that.

    I’d like to see a good old all American clash, wilder vs Anderson. Anderson can give wilder all sorts of problems imo

    Hell yes. Probably ends with the Usyk / Fury fight we all want but you never know.
