Wilder targeting Gkazkov or Browne for NBC 9/26

[Dolezal]

Just don't lose that title before Fury gets a hold of that a$$!

Too bad those are the options, but the top 15 of the WBC doesn't have much to offer (I just glad they don't have Shannon Briggs ranked). I would like to see Tony Thompson even though he's old, his experience would level the field. Wilder will take the easiest fight.

Really? Arreola is so washed up it's remarkable. In his last fight, he went life and death with a C level guy that he would've blown up a year or two ago. Arreola would be the easiest fight for Wilder out of the ranked WBC opponents.

I think Glazkov would be the best choice. He's a solid HW but he doesn't have cracking power.

I guess that's just where I rate Browne.
Honestly I think nothing of him. Just a big lumbering guy who I don't think is that great.

[Scipio2009]

I am not surprised that he did not say Povetkin is next because he knows that Al Haymon will never allow him to get in the ring with Povetkin or Klitschko. I I expect Wilder to vacate the belt by the end of 2015 so that he can avoid a fight with Povetkin.

The Povetkin talks don't have to begin till October.

In the mean time, in preparation for the Povetkin (6'2 230) fight, Haymon is putting him in with Eric Molina (6'4 240) and Lucas Browne (6'4 250).

hate if you want

[The Hammer]

Negotiations start in October,and it has been clear he would fight before then

Wilder requested the WBC permit the negotiations be delayed and not start until October.

Povetkin wants to start negotiations NOW, and fight Wilder in September.

[The Hammer]

Wilder knocks out both fighters with his eyes closed. Glazkov does have powerful connections most likely. He has gotten 3 gift decisions

You should learn to score fights more objectively.

You even had Broner beating Porter.

Either Arreola, Antonio Tarver or Steve Cunningham are next up for Wilder! Whichever one is not chosen will be next in line. The Povetkin fight will never happen and a fight with Klitschko has about as much of a chance of happening as I have of winning the lottery.

So your saying Wilder is a paper Champion

No way Tarver/Cunningham... they fight in August... but i bet they will be down the line

Build some life into this division. Its going in right direction

Avoiding povetkin.

Wilder is overated. Dude wants no part of a inside fighter.

Povetkin's people said themselves that Sept is very unlikely and Wilder has said he wants to fight more than twice this year. So how is he avoiding Povetkin? Is he supposed to sit out in September while they finalize the details with Team Povetkin?
