Comments Thread For: Wilder-Duhaupas Set To Be Announced For NBC/PBC Bill

This is the result if TV isn't paying a license fee and has no influence on the quality of the fights. Poor matchmaking and this joke fight on free TV....ridiculous

Haha the USA got what they deserved, you got YOUR Heavyweight champion.

So funny how all this year NSB trashed the Klitschkos and now crawl back and start to honour and appreciate them when they realize what their own champ is like.

At Wilder's age, Wlad was getting KOd by journeymen so people can relax on the mythical unbeatable Wladimir

You're obviously not that diehard of a fan if you've never heard of him before now. He beat Charr, a name that should be familiar to anyone who follows the division. Also taken the distance by Teper (you've probably never heard of him either) which at least proves his durability.

Haha right??

[Weebler I]

I don't care what anybody says, this is not actually a bad defence. It's an optional and he has to unify or face Povetkin next, the haters need get over it.

Y'all ***** n moan these guys don't fight enough, well guess what, he's facing a guy the same height as the champ in preparation for a tough challenge in the likelihood he unifies next. Get over it.

Duhaupas went 12 rounds with the extremely hard hitting Teper, defeated Charr soundly a fringe level opponent. The dude ain't ever gonna be a title holder but he will provide Wilder with some good rounds and most importantly it puts him back in the minds of the paying American. He's building a reputation and profile back home, one whereby it'll get people interested in him facing the ageing Eastern European champ who himself just soundly defeated another American.

I'm expecting all this to lead up to and help sell a unification next up after both Klitschko and Wilder have both disposed of their upcoming opponents handily.

Here's hoping Wilder comes through unscathed.

lol I don't think I could disagree with this post more.

Here's hoping Duhaupas knocks him out and that he isn't signed by Haymon if he does.

You guys are pathetic. When Sasha beat Charr it was like "OMG he's a beast!!!! So amazing!!!" Duhuapas beats him, "he sucks, Wilder's a bum".

Eff off..

Povetkin brutally knocked him out. Charr had only one prior loss to Vitali at that point in time.

Duhuapas is as good as any title defense Povetkin put up. Look, the top 10 guys in the division NEVER fight each other period..

Povetkin vs Takam, Chagaev, Klitschko, Perez and Byrd springs to mind......

the teper fight was a pretty good tilt. Both guys let their hands go & landed some big shots. It was a close fight & it was duhaupas' first step up fight. The fight was closer than the score cards indicated. He then took the charr far on 4 weeks notice & squeeked out a close decision. That fight could of went either way. Duhaupas is big & can take a good shot. He lets his hands go too...

"It's free boxing doe!!!"

[beez721]

Good stay busy fight for the champ, this guy has been in with tough contenders like tepper and always gives them a rough time. If wilder takes this guy out easily it'll be a real statement

giving a soso journeyman a hard time and losing qualifies you for a title shot? please dude. this fight should not be happening and the wilder camp should be ashamed of themselves

[BrometheusBob.]

That was actually the first person that came to mind when I was trying to guess who he'd pick. Despite the fact that it's not surprising, it's still rather insulting to keep making these sorts of matchups. I've been pretty lenient in regards to what matchups I'll watch, but I don't know how much longer I can keep that up when **** fights like this and Quillin/Zerafa keep getting made.

It's free doe

[BigAlexSand]

Only way I'm gonna be okay with this fight is afterward when negotiations begin for the Povetkin fight. Wilder is quickly looking like the guy, I don't want to support. One give-me fight is alright, including after winning the title but to go three... I'll be damned disappointed and looking forward to someone cracking that chin but tell then.... Bomb Squad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
