So Wilder turned down 10M for Povetkin.

If Guerrero is getting 2 mil I'm sure wilder can get same or more to fight guys like Briggs, tarver, cunningham .....and fury is a huge fight . Wilder stiverne did huge ratings

Lower risk than going to Russia and getting robbed

There's more robberies in any single state in the USA than Russia as a whole. You must've meant, better than going to Russia and getting knocked out.

It obviously isn't "the place" to fight when the guys are looking to start fighting in Germany or America ASAP when they get a good ranking. Wilder is supposed to go to a place with a history of dangling big purses and then not making good on them to make his first defense? This is just silly. I know you guys are all really upset that Wilder won (believe me, the desperation shows in your posts) but why would he make his first defense on the road?

You don't seem to realize that Russia and Ukraine are two different countries.

Bat is full of reliable sources. I'll chalk this one up with the "Ward-Kessler 2 in Denmark is imminent" thread.

Good move, Povetkin would humiliate and feminize Wilder.

This. Povetking would **** him up!

Hate these new generation of champions. They beg and plead for a title fight with a sorry ass resume then act like other people don't deserve a shot once they become paper champions.

He said Russia is the HW epicenter and I pointed out that the Klitschkos are from Ukraine and fight in Germany. Is your reading comprehension that poor? Everyone else seemed to understand my post.

Lol the mans been champ for 2 weeks.

[HanzGruber]

Does klitschko even get 10 mil a fight? Lol. He's making his first defense in America on nbc

I couldn't care less how much money he makes. As a fan I want him to improve(yes he still has to make improvements which he is shown he was capable of) and then take on all comers. I would give him a pass for this year is what I am saying.

He's had 33 fights. He's 29 years old. He's just beat a world champion but you want him to go back to fighting soft opponents...lol.
