He already ducked Whyte for a $7M payday because he doesn't want to fight across the pond. The irony is, I think he would have easily beaten Whyte, that was easy money, but it came with a stipulation that he had to fight AJ next. That's the fight he is really avoiding.
Wilder turns 35 in two weeks and Fury is three years younger. Time is not on his side and he won't get better having another fight besides Fury. If he is not injured I think he should train hard and take his contracted rematch and hope Fury is over confident and under trained.
Agree. Would love to see the soles of whytes feet again.
Would be icing on the cake to end the hype jobs career.
Wilder has been running from him like a plague. We all know how it played out running into the red zone.
you know damn well he won't be fighting one of those guys.
It will go like this: Wilder negotiates with someone good but it falls through due to some bull****. then wilders team set up a fight with an american bum that used to have a name, someone on the level of Malik Scott or Chris Arreola. a squash match essentially. hell, it might be one of those guys mentioned.
I know he’s gonna take on some irrelevant opponent (bum) next, which is sad. But realistically speaking, he’s too old to be wasting time fighting the level of guys he’s been fighting his whole career.
There’s no flavor for a Fury rematch actually. He should at least fight Wallin and show the world he can beat him better than Fury to at least make the rematch a little more appealing.
Wallin next
Whyte after
Ruiz after
If he wins all, Fury rematch is considerable

Thats one of the few fights i'd give a **** about seeing Whyte in at this point. Nothing to do with Hearn brainwashing, I'd expect Whyte to get brutally KTFO again, thats actually part of its appeal.

Charles Martin would be a great opponent for Wilder but he is a dangerous opponent for him as well
If No Fury then Wilder should just humble himself and take the time to Rebuild and try to improve on The Basics and Technique and also invest in himself and Bring in a Top Level Trainer and also Bulk Up
35 (about to turn 35 on the 22nd I think) is not Old for a Heavyweight so he does have time to rebuild and work his way back. Also too he is #1 by the WBC so he is still in position to get another shot at the Belt even without the Contracted Rematch
Otto Wallin, Michael Hunter, and Evgeny Romanov are my picks.
Wallin: 12-round bloody war with Fury, never been dropped or stopped.
Hunter: 12-round epic battles with Usyk and Povetkin, never been stopped.
Romanov: Knocked out Wilder in the amateurs, never tasted defeat as a pro.
People still want to see Wilder vs Whyte? Hearn got some sort of crazy brainwashing going on...
