    He has fought all his mandatories and even the greatest of all David Haye (LMAO you Brittards) and no one has come close. His reign has been seamless. I hope he gets to KTFO Wilder before he retires.

    Wilder won't end up meeting Wladimir with an undefeated record.

    If he loses its okay he is older now, its the same value as avoiding a fight...His legacy is not attached to having an "0" ala Floyd...His stock will go up even if wins some and loses some...He still can handle all, so a busier schedule might help

    Wlad 3 options vs Younger Lions:

    - RETIRE, - legacy & - $
    - SELect, - legacy & + $
    - War All, + legacy & + $

    Vlad has to fight his mandatories and he has lots of them, Leapai, then Pulev, have read that HBO wants Vlad to fight Jennings, so don't know, Vlad has mentioned fighting Wilder ASAP. Vlad will want to fight for the WBC title, so that could be Arreola or Stiverne. Adamek is possible if he beats Glazkov, which I think he will, but who knows who the org.'s will have as their mandatory next, the highest bidder? Rumors are that Scott will make more money if he loses to Wilder, sometimes rumors have a lot of truth in them, sometimes not, but Oscar wants Wilder to win, so................whatever, Vlad will beat anyone in the top ten. Vlad has been lied about by American boxing media so many times, it's no wonder that Vlad's opponents claim that they did not know how good Vlad really is, until they got into the fight with him...........

    As long as Wlad comes and lets his hands go, he should get credit for it win or lose.

    He is not Mayweather, so losing will not lower his status, he should fight more often and try to match Joe Louis while at it. KTFO title defenses if possible early to get another defense :boxer

    Arreola would knock Wilder out. Seth Mitchell's right hand landed flush on Arreola's chin and nothing happened. Wilder's right hand comes from left field and be seen coming from across the ring. Wilder refused to fight Chisora, Fury, Thompson, Jennings, you name it..............

    Leapai
    Winner of Stiverne/Arreola
    Pulev
    Wilder

    I originally believed he would fight Pulev after Leapai but he really wants all the belts and if they are fighting in May so close to his April date I can see him making that fight before the IBF forces the Pulev scrap. Then he can have a huge money fight with an undefeated American fighter as an undisputed champ. Would be huge money match. I also think Adamek may squeeze in there somewhere if he wins next month.

    Wilder vs Undisputed Champion Wlad is a better choice for both fighters legacy

    If Wilder beats Wlad, he beat a bigger ATG name
    If Wlad loses he has Undisputed champion on his resume
    Coming in Undisputed brings the most Money to Wlad
    Wilder gets a shot at history, coming in at a historic KO ratio record & seeking boxing immortality by KOing Undisputed ATG Wlad :boxer

    Wlad needs to "fight" his urge to hold, lean and throw....against whomever he faces until retirement.

    You mean Pulev? :)

    If anyone is currently capable of upsetting Wlad before he retires, that's Pulev. However, that's very unlikely to happen, but we will see.

    Wlad never lost to a featherfisted guy

    Wlad early problem, was leaving his head floating target for bangers, now he is much harder to hit due to the better jab, deterrent right & final line of defense a power hug, Pulev can't handle all of that, nobody can...Wilder only chance is an early bomb out or he becomes involved in a racial harmony intense hug fest against his will...hard love :yep
