Comments Thread For: Wilder's Promoter: We'd Consider Bellew, Parker is Top Choice

No, the Degale fight isn't big enough for him to leave the Canelo fight behind. If GGG were to move up, the Canelo fight is dead in the water.

GGG is building his brand at Middle right now, he doesn't need to move up for that.

Whats his brand though? And how is it growing? Seems that it's not...but the Jacobs ppv will say a lot towards the growth of his brand.

That's NSB for ya. A bunch of people who think Wilder should just fight whomever their little hearts desire, rather than looking out for his own career. Pathetic..

I didn't know there was a rule that said GGG couldn't move up to super middle, or better yet light heavy and make a superfight with either Ward or Kovalev. Then move back down and fight Canelo at whatever weight they decide on. That's exactly what Canelo is doing now.

As for Wilder, I've spent this entire thread pretty much trashing his level of competition. Not sure what you've been reading.

Golovkin deserves the same amount of criticism as Wilder does. However, Golovkin has this upcoming fight against Jacobs who is top five in his division. Wilder won't even consider anyone in the top ten.

if he won't consider anyone in the top ten, why did he fly to russia?

Technically, he didn't make it to Russia. Either way, Povetkin made a bad move and bailed Wilder out. He hasn't come close to fighting a top ten fighter since.

This is after getting an immediate shot at the WBC champ (who was Stiverne) with the paltry resume that he had.

At this point, Wilder should not waste time thinking about anyone not in the top ten.
