      They are barely top ten in a garbage division right?

            This isn't a club fight Bat, this one is more interesting than any HW fight since Vlad-Haye. The Americans are obviously excited about Wilder possibly bringing a belt back to the US.

              Why do people make ****** threads starting with Why when the answer is quite obvious if they use some common sense?

                Most yanks I've talked to aren't excited at all. This yank thinks it should be an entertaining watch and a decent test of a guy who might be able to generate some excitement for a division that puts most people to sleep.

                If Wilder loses by early KO, expect a lot of "told you his chin was glass." If he wins, perhaps a few "in what round would Wilder KO Ali?"

                  Both of them have zero interest in fighting Wlad. This fight doesn't really interest me. I'll dvr it

                    The hw division IS garbage. Wilder switched over to boxing very late, from football and basketball, yet he is already challenging for a world title for goodness sake. What does that tell you about the quality of today's contenders?

                    But that aside these two guys do have the potential to put on an exciting fight. Plus they are fighting for the WBC strap which has been held by so many greats. Why wouldn't Yank boxing fans be interested, especially since one of their own is involved?
