    He needs Povetkin. Every fight will double his purse after a Povetkin win.

    Wilder is making bank right now fighting less risk but he needs this win to get some credit

    Sure his style is wild and unpolished but too many on here feel the Russian will KO him....I think Wilder stops his short AZE to be honest

    His purses will increase with a Povetkin win as he becomes more desirable to watch from a wider audience. Currently he is not getting big money for fighting, hence rapid defences against lower ranked opponents.

    Yeah I see your view point better now

    He would get paid more but currently Big Al giving him more cash than he ever made and he is always guaranteed to win.

    He needs some bigger names under his belt and I also say crushing Povetkin would speed up this process:hey

    Thanks bro:good

    I think Povetkin is a much easier fight. Might as well get that one out of the way. People claim it's his biggest fight, he is going to get KOd, etc. But, when he goes in there and beats the Melodium out of this little dude, he won't get the credit he deserves from it. Some of us know how that goes. I wouldn't blame him if he skipped it, though, considering the circumstances. He gets a ton more credit from a Fury win.

    He needs more bums if he wants to keep his belt, you're right.

    Wilder doesn't need Povetkin.

    Povetkin is detrimental to Wilder's ability to remain vertical.
