Comments Thread For: Klitschko Lands Number WBC #2 Ranking To Deontay Wilder

[Boxing Logic]

I'm just joking y'all. I'm just frustrated that the sport keeps going years without making the best fights in each division. In Wilder's case, he's gone decades fighting no one, and it's just boring. And it's frustrating to know the excitement that could exist, that could be, and the integrity that could exist in each division where the best really get to prove themselves as the best, but instead these fighters just duck for years and try to sell out the entire sport for their own personal gain. It just sucks as a fan of the sport.

More like pull a Rid**** Bowe and drop the belt in a trash bin like Bowe did when Lennox Lewis was the mandatory challenger.

Funny thing is that when Bowe did that and when Canelo vacated and dropped the belt. Both Lennox and Triple G were given the belt right away. WBC staying true to form all these years later, Lol.

Lol, Wilder better try to unify with Parker to over rule the mandatories, then after that unify with Joshua.

Rid**** Bowe actually fought Holyfield three times though, and Golata twice. I'm not saying Bowe has the best heavyweight resumé of all time or nothing, but compared to Wilder's resumé, he may as well. When Wilder gonna fight someone lol? When? What decade? i been hearing about this dude for like a decade now. It was him and Gary Russell Jr always ducking and fighting TBA's over and over for YEARS. Russell finally fought someone once anyway, Lomachenko, probably just because he underestimated him and thought if Salido beat him, he could too. If he knew the truth about Lomachenko he probably would have ducked too lol... it's the PBC way...

But at least he fought SOMEONE. Once. That was a couple years ago. But with Wilder, STILL nada! Still nothing! It's embarrassing. He has to be the worst heavyweight titlist, not champ but titlist, in the entire history of the division! Totally manufactured career. When is he going to fight someone lol??? How many more years of ducking and cherry picking? Wilder makes Bowe look like Ali, and Floyd look like Sugar Ray Robinson. That's how weak Wilder's resumé is.

I think he will now. I hope he just tries to unify first instead of the mandatories.

Either way he's going to be fighting legit competition now whether through mandatory (after Stiverne) or unification.

Interesting situation for Klitschko. The only title he never has held is the WBC Title because his brother had that Title and now Wilder.

Klitschko may choose to go another route instead of rematching Joshua and try to become mandatory for the WBC belt.

I think that's exactly why they did this.

They know Klitschko has expressed interest in getting the WBC belt in the past and seeing that his name still has value and that his fight with Joshua was a massive success. The WBC wants some of that money. So they're going to force him to make a tough decision. Fight for the belt he doesn't have or fight Joshua again.

Klitschko isn't going to make anywhere near the money to fight Wilder as he would fighting Joshua. So I think he'll likely exercise the rematch.

Im not exactly sure what being in a number 2 spot would actually mean? Does this mean Wlad will get to fight wilder 2 years from now? If SOMEHOW Klitchko can force a fight on Wilder,Wilder will be sweating bullets is my guess ,bc he may not make it to Joshua superfight payday!

Wlad will knock him out cold! OR This could also be a ploy to avoid Joshua and get Wlad before Joshua does( Wilder must think he can win by now) but Wlad will collect the WBC belt when/if this fight happens!

Wilder will be sweating bullets should Wlad get a way to make this fight happen.I guess wilder is taking his chances with the lesser threat should it back fire on him and his team by putting Wlad at number 2...either way they BOTH Wlad/Joshua k.o Wilder.
