We all know that he is not going to fight anybody worth a damn. His potential opponents from the WBC ratings need have only three of qualifications: A) A positve record, regardless of how flimsy B) Won their last fight, regardless of how meaningless C) They utterly suck. I also have a longstanding belief that he at some point he will eventually drag up some walking corpse. I see the following as the most likely possible opponents. 1. Stivern rematch (always marginal, he is FAT these days) 2. Duhaupas rematch (based on beating cripple Helenius) 3. Molina rematch (based on beating middle aged LHW Adamek) 4. Fujimoto 5. Wach (finally looks ****py enough) 6. Billy Wright 7. Wawrzyk 8. Dimentenko (might have once been too dangerous, but no more) 9. Holyfield 10. Bowe Ruddock was being primed, but he will never fight again after the last loss. I thought of Golota and McCall, but they can punch a bit and thus are too dangerous. Scott is back in the mix, but he probably will not take a dive twice, and the first fight was just too fishy, even for this con team. Gjerjaj would have been perfect, but he just embarrassed himself. Washington sucks, but just a bit too heavy handed. etc. I think I have narrowed it down well. What say you all? I am going to attach a vote, but feel free to throw out another name.
I suspect there will be more on this. Wilder will threaten a lawsuit, which will keep the WBC at bay long enough for him to make another voluntary "defense." He has already said that he may give up the belt, as we all predicted, but you make a good point since that would free him from "defennding" against WBC payola/****pola fighters.
If he tries to fight anybody else with a pulse there will be court case and he's putting $5m at risk. He was getting beat by Spizlika for 9 rounds lest we forget. Arnold Gjarbage might be a possibility.
He needs to fight someone decent thats for sure. Leaving the Povetkin mess to one side, his "reign" has been an absolute disgrace.
He already signed to fight Luther Meldonium. He's undefeated. He throws 300 punches a round. A good test for Wilder. His head is bigger than Povetkins so you know his noggin is bigger than 30 planet Jupiters lol...
