It's very simple. There was a rematch clause and Wilder exercised it. The right thing to do is honor it, period.

Wilder will just keep pushing the fight back claiming COVID for years if he can ignore deadlines, he just annoyed Fury won't pay him the 20 million .. its the same as when he stopped teh STiveren Klitschko fight by asking for 10 million step aside .. the guy has previosu.Comment

Wilder refused to get screwed over by Klitschko and fought Stiverne as the WBC mandatory. Same thing here: refuse step aside money and fight Fury as contractually agreed and legally bound by the arbitrator. Fury was forced to honor the contract. It's as simple as that. Undisputed can happen after that but it will be Wilder against the winner of Joshua-Usyk.Wilder will just keep pushing the fight back claiming COVID for years if he can ignore deadlines, he just annoyed Fury won't pay him the 20 million .. its the same as when he stopped teh STiveren Klitschko fight by asking for 10 million step aside .. the guy has previosu.Comment

I thought 273 was part of his strategy last go around. I thought he looked a little heavy at the Canelo fight but I didn’t really get a good look. I saw his head in a video. So you could be right.Comment

Maybe wilder just trying to negotiate to get as much of that step aside as possible then just wait for any of the brits or maybe he's just desperately impatient to avenge fury loss and prove it was his ring walk heavy costume made him gassed out early

Fury-Wilder 3 isn’t a huge fight
in normal times, it wouldn’t even be on PPV. The two fights combined were fairly conclusive of levels in between these two fighters
Wilders team will know this
I imagine he’ll take some settlement instead and hope for the winner of AJ/Fury. If Fury wins he’ll probably retireComment
