Povetkin just fought last month and sustained a cut over his eye. Not only is two months too quick a turn-around time for another fight, but a cut over the eye would still not be completely healed. Fury has a rematch clause that he must honor against Klitschko. Wilder is disliked because he has 35 undefeated pro fights and a belt, without ever having fought a top ten HW contender. The HW division used to be prestigious, but Wilder is clearly avoiding top contention & shaming himself & the division.

To be fair Wilder's amateur experience is lacking, which is most likely why they chose to slowly pad his record and build his experience before going after a title, you tend to see this often with Mexican fighters with little to no am experience.
Also I'm not sure if you're too familiar with American's boxing fans compared to the British boxing fans but the worlds are vastly different. It takes a lot for American fight fans to get behind a fighter compared to the UK where it is not unusual for fans to follow a fighters pro career from start to finish. If Anthony Joshua was American there is no way in hell his fight with Whyte would have been PPV.Comment

Translation: I hope he does end up like David Price. I wish Povetkin had lost to Wach. I want to avoid risk until at least 2019.Comment

Yeah I understand that but if that's the case then wilder should not speak of joshua becoming a price or lacking big experience ...Joshua has only had 15 fights and already he is ranked 3 by the WBC .....also mate it wasn't just joshua and whyte that made it ppv ...the card was fully loaded with big fights all through the night.....not sure if you know but there was really bad blood between those two that helped it become ppv worthy but Hearn still had to make it a big card to warrant it so that the reason why I think...in terms of boxing the UK has always been the home of boxing to be fair and we did invent it...so when we get a good prospect or Olympic champion there's a lot of hype and following.....I went to see LEWIS fight holyfield in the garden and rematch in Vegas and over 6 thousand travelled to see him each time...really lets be fair how many US fans would travel to London to see mayweather fight ? the average American sports fan would prefer basketball or baseball to a big fight.....here I think is much different and even ufc even though it's watched here is nothing compared to a big boxing fight.....your country has created such all time great fighters that it's weird to think that the UFC is more popular than boxing now in the states...boxing is booming in the UK at the moment with over 12 world champions and you just consider that's from a population of just 65 million ....good talking buddyComment

Joshua does t ack glass like Price does so Wilder shouldn't be worried .Comment

Wilder has been talking a lot of negativity about Joshua. His ranking, his physique, comparison with Price..
Why? It sounds like he's scared to me.
Don't worry Wilder, Joshua is coming for you. Or should I say Povetkin.Comment
