Deontay Wilders choice of voluntary will reveal his guts or lack of

[1hourRun]

Wilder cant go rounds -- Beats Stivern in 12 but he was drugged doe.
Wilder only fights voluntary or mandos -- offered Fury the first crack.
Wilder has no chin -- takes best shot from Duhuapas and Molina.
Szpilka was winning the fight -- before going to hospital.
Wilder is postponing Povetkin -- Povetkin ask for tune up to cycle.
Wilder is vacating -- Accepts fight in Russia.
Wilder is ducking Povetkin -- after failed drug test doe.

If he really wants to prove himself there are opponents out there

Ortiz
Haye
Pulev

He'll fight Gerald Washington or Charles martin though

The bolded aren't likely to happen cuz those guys aren't even ranked by the WBC.

Haye isn't happening cuz Haye is on his own bum tour, next stop: Shannon Briggs.

I suspect & have been saying Pulev & Washington would be on the possible opponent list & are probably #1 & #2 respectively. I suspect its about a 50/50 shot on who gets the nod since Washington is with the same outfit as Wilder.

I think if Wilder really wants a bs fight there is Bryant Jennings. And while I got no excitement for Bermane II I could understand Wilder & his team wanting a rematch to show how he's improved since the first fight so I don't got much of an issue with that fight happening if it does.

All in all I don't think this opponent will say much of anything about Wilder's guts cuz these are all fights he's going to win most likely & he'll go in knowing he'll win.

Well it really shouldn't matter who faces next because we all know who he is going to face this Fall; That Super bout with Tyson Fury.

[K-Nan]

Those top 3 you listed guys won't be available on short notice.

[rudy]

He was looking to fight Hughie Fury last i heard

[Dr Rumack]

Haye isn't happening cuz Haye is on his own bum tour, next stop: Shannon Briggs.

Don't you think Haye would take the fight?

[Jsmooth9876]

who cares who he fights..

If it's not Joshua,Ortiz,Fury,Wlad,Povetkin,Parker then it doesn't really matter. Those are the players at HW...

Ortiz is fighting an eliminator against Ustinov for a shot at facing the winner of Fury-Klitschko. Haye is not serious about fighting. He's running a racket, trying to build his name up in order to cash out against Joshua. Pulev would be a good fight. Here are the current WBC rankings. They'll be updated on June 8th.

1 .- Alexander Povetkin (Russia)
2 .- Bermane Stiverne (Haiti/Canada)
3 .- Kubrat Pulev (Bulgaria) EBU
4 .- Johann Duhaupas (France) SILVER
5 .- Carlos Takam (Cameroon)
6 .- Joseph Parker (New Zealand) OPBF
7 .- Andy Ruiz (Mexico) NABF
8 .- David Haye (GB)
9 .- Bryant Jennings (US)
10 .- Malik Scott (US)
11 .- Artur Szpilka (Poland)
12 .- Eric Molina (US)
13 .- Dereck Chisora (GB)
14 .- Ruslan Chagaev (Uzbekistan/Germany)
15 .- Gerald Washington (US)

I think it's likely that Wilder will face Andy Ruiz. I Ruiz is the best opponent in terms of risk/reward. He's a tough young and skilled fighter but his lack of conditioning has always been a problem. I think he gives Wilder some good rounds but will not be able to withstand Wilder's power.

[Robbie Barrett]

Why are people saying Haye isn't interested? He said a few weeks ago he was and the Joshua fight looks less likely than ever with Hearn wanting him to fight Whyte first. Wilder said he wanted to fight Haye a few weeks ago also. There's nothing stopping them reaching out, apart from they don't fancy the risk.
