What elite heavyweights would have been willing to take that fight on such short notice with little time to promote the event?
    So your defending Wilder fighting bums?

      so ggg is ducking lara because lara called him out even though they arent in the same division and ggg already had an opponent set but wilder isnt ducking ortiz who is in his division and called him out for a fight on feb 25 before he had an opponent. ok sure yeah why not and ward won too

        At least 4 of the WBC top 10 ranked heavyweights would have talen a fight on two months notice against Wilder when povetkin doped the first time.

        Anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves.

          Ortiz owes HBO a fight. So him calling Wilder out when he knows he can't go to SHO is BS.

            Keep acting like Wilder is the only one fighting bums.

            At least he's never been KO'd by one...unlike Vlad.

              I've been following boxing for a long time. Replacement fights suck. It's the nature of the beast. I would love for him to fight a top 5 opponent, and he was signed to fight one on his hometurf but the guy decided that he needed to use PEDs.

              You sound confused bro. GGG and Lara were never in negotiations. I would love to see that fight but it needs to be negotiated and have a proper venue in place.

              And Wilder vs. Ortiz is a fight between 2 top 5 contenders. Both need a proper camp and the fight needs to be properly promoted. Fights like that take time to negotiate and can't be done on short notice.

                Wilder is an exceptionally weak title holder, certainly one of the weakest in the history of heavyweight boxing.

                If everything about him was the exact same, except he was from Ghana instead of Alabama, he wouldn't be in the position he's in. He didn't get there on merit. He hasn't fought his way up, he's it all handed it to him.

                The exact second he steps in with Joshua, Ortiz, Fury or Haye, he is getting exposed as the overhyped chickenshit that he is.

                      same exact reason people don't give GGG credit for making other P4P fighters legit tuck their ****s. Why are people pretending Canelo didn't drop his belt and duck GGG?

                      why are people pretending GGG wasn't signed onto fight Pirog right after he decapitated Jacobs?
