Wilder just isn't going to beat Povetkin, Fury, or Joshua.

Well there you have it, then: Povetkin isn't willing to take Wilder's belt from him. No wonder Wilder won't fight him...

lol the only real challenges Wilder wants are stuff like achieving a world record for the most diabetic, obese, out of shape clubfighters ever fit into a professional boxing record.

Haymon and Wilder seem to fear Povetkin, they try to push that fight away as long as possible. Hope the WBC puts pressure on Wilder. He anyway only fights stiffs in the meantime.

EASY WORK! wont fight him yet doe

I'm a wilder fan and I'm nervous about this fight. If he shows up against povetkin like he did with Molina, it's lights out.

If he fights like he did against Stiverne... he has a great chance considering the reach and height differences

Well here's the current WBC rankings. So I think it's pretty clear who Wilder is going to fight next, the awful dwarf nobody Kyotaro Fujimoto. I'll honestly be shocked if this fight doesn't happen. The only way I don't see it happening is if Team Wilder bribe the WBC to get somebody even worse who's not even in their corrupt rankings.

1 .- Alexander Povetkin (Russia) SILVER
2 .- Anthony Joshua (GB) INTL
3 .- Vyacheslav Glazkov (Ukraine)
4 .- Bermane Stiverne (Haiti/Canada)
5 .- Bryant Jennings (US)
6 .- Lucas Browne (Australia)
7 .- Artur Szpilka (Poland)
8 .- Andy Ruiz (Mexico) NABF
9 .- Carlos Takam (Cameroon)
10 .- Tony Thompson (US) AMERICA
11 .- Chris Arreola (US)
12 .- Johann Duhaupas (France)
13 .- Mike Perez (Cuba/Ireland)
14 .- Kyotaro Fujimoto (Japan)
15 .- Eric Molina (US)

WBC already ordered negotiations to start in October... Should the negotiations fail, WBC has to accept the purse bid -- in which the Russians will prevail easily and they will bring the fight in Moscow...

Why, what have those two done that makes you feel so confident to say that?
Both are clearly chinny and Wilder can **** harder than any of those two and its more than likely AJ is juiced up to his eyeballs.

Everyone keeps saying this. No chance wilder drops his belt

No chance Wilder retains the belt. I know you like Wilder but he ain't got the skills to be a 'real' world champion.
