Comments Thread For: Wilder Won’t Go To Russia For Mandatory Versus Povetkin

[Flabulous]

Why should he? He never fought outside of Russia/Germany.

IDK why some of ya are acting like it's a problem that Povetkin comes to the US..... aren't ya saying he's gonna win anyway?

wrong - sasha fought eddie camber in the states on hbo bac in like 2007.

it's a problem cause povetkin has said more than once he has no problem fighting in USA if need be, and makes most money... But Wilder said no way he's fighting in Russia.

USA is no longer the mecca of boxing - especially for the HW division,

Interesting one.

If that goes to purse bids Wilder would need to get his thermals on because he is going to Russia.

lulz - oh well - sasha still said he'd be willing to fight in USA... Why is Wilder not willing to do the same if it comes down to it?

hahah and what will the windmiller do (LOL did u see him fall down trying to swing sat. night?) if Povetkin wins purse bid and wants the fight in Russia?

[Flabulous]

Like I said, doe, it's gonna be HILARIOUS if it goes to purse bids, and if it does, Povetkin will absolutely win, and Povetkin says "fight is happening in Russia - period."

LOLOLOL Wilder would have to suck it up, or the most likely option - ***** out and drop the title.

[-PBP-]

Povetkin already said he doesn't mind it in the US. This is a non-issue at this point.

I'm sure that would be a great victory for you.

Moral victories are just as good as real ones for them I guess.

Watch tubbs over there claim Povetkin was "too old" after Wilder ices him too.
