      Wilder actually got promoted to number 1 in April for no reason.

      It's obviously all set up.

      What's more worrying is that DDD is obviously considering ducking this fight. He has nothing to lose and will get no better.

        They’ll be given an ample amount of time to make a deal.

        Absolutely no chance Wilder would take 25%.
        Who exactly is going to pay windmill whatever he demands? Usyks team even got the money cause pbc sure don't. And I can't see an outside promoter winning the bid.

          1. The money would probably come from the Middle East
          2. Wilder might accept less than he normally would to challenge the unified WBA/IBF/WBO/IBO/Ring Magazine/TBRB champion while he himself doesn't have a belt than he would've to fight in non-title fights or to take on challengers to his own WBC title during his reign. He's not a 34 year old making another mandatory title defense anymore, he's a beltless 37 year old that has been knocked out in his last 2 title fights. He knows he only has so many opportunities left.

              Having Dubois as mandatory was pretty silly anyways. I'm curious if Ngannou will throw his hat in the ring, and against whom.

                Surely PFL/DAZN are smart enough to know he gets badly exposed in the boxing ring.

                Would be a very ****** move IMO. Especially when you’ve committed to paying him millions.

                  They might try to find him a name that simply doesn't care anymore like they did for Silva with JCC Jr. Put him in there with a relic like Sam Peter or Siarhei Liakhovich and hope for the best. If he doesn't get KO'd you can claim he beat a world boxing champion and go back to your PFL fights.

                    Well, his contract with PFL includes the freedom to do boxing. And it's honestly one of the safer things for him to do, because if/when he loses, it was widely expected anyways since MMA guys don't do well in boxing generally. So many of them have even lost to Jake Paul. So it's not really like he gets exposed. He's still the top MMA heavyweight, outside of Jonny Bones, who is a cheating PED-using felony-committing scumbag anyways, even if he is a great fighter.

                    ​​​​​Speaking of the Paul's, maybe Tyson Fury's next fight will be against Logan Paul for that matter. He can probably even get that scum Sulaiman to order it as a mandatory.
