Testing was holding it up.

Did Povetkin finally agree to drug testing yet?

According to the article, yes.

Let's see Wilder get past 3 rounds in this one. If he does, he has a good chance of winning. I just don't happen to think his chin or his early-round skills will let him.

It is no surprise that he waited until after Charles Martin got his ass whipped to sign for this fight. I said before Mar tin/Joshua was signed that Wilder would vacate his title to fight Martin. I also said Wilder would wait until after the Martin/Joshua fight to see if Martin won before he would commit to fighting Povetkin. I was right on one out of two predictions.

excellent, should be a good test to see if Wilder is really a glass-jawed can crusher or actually has some legit skills
