    Would Wilder be willing to fight Bellew?

    or is Tony Bellew too much work for the Bronze Bomber?

    Hearn could probably pay Wilder 5x what he earns in his usual fights.

    So yeah, of course he would.

      Would Bellew go straight in as mandatory? Wilder got nowhere to hide

        No. Haye had been removed from the rankings by WBC for refusing to sign up to VADA.

        There wasn't any belt governing body involved but if it had been, Bellew would probably be sitting somewhere near the top of the IBF and WBO top 10 right now.

          I was thinking because Bellew is WBC Cruiserweight Champion, if he moved up that would give him an automatic ranking.

          Also was thinking last night it would be a perfect way to introduce Joshua to America and build to a Joshua/Wilder fight, if you could get Wilder/Bellew and Joshua/Pulev or Ortiz on the same card.

            Yes, especially if he had at least one belt.

              Wait, Haye refused to use Vada? Why isn't this news?

                  I'm pretty sure Khan did sign up which is why he is still in the WBC rankings, but Haye has definitely been removed.

                    Yeah Khan ended up signing up. Surprised I didn't see this all over this site. But then again i'm not surprised, seems people only care about it when it involves certain fighters
