    This makes sense. Maybe rematch josh, and if he loses again. He can still try get parker to Germany four last fight.
    I fear if he don't rematch josh he might regret it. But if he don't fight josh again Parker would be good.
    The thing with josh is we know josh can hurt wkad.

      As a boxer, just imagine how exciting and exhilarating, the entire build up and event must of felt like for the competitors! It is during these moments and challenges in life, that you realize that you are alive! These are the moments that athletes miss in all sports! and try to recapture with hobbies, but its never the same! (Sometimes that quest to replace sport destroys some athletes)...

      Wladimir Kiltschko has proven that he is still a capable fighter, and he knows from a technical perspective he could of done more! (Its these variables within Wladimir Kiltscko's personality, that is leading me to predict that he will ether take the rematch or fight in a farewell fight against Joseph Parker! Wladimir Kiltschko Loves boxing, just like Bernard Hopkins! It is apart of their core identity! and its very hard for champions and fighters like that leave the game, when there is a small glimmer of Hope! Hope that they can climb that mountain again!)...

        WLAD never held the WBC belt, the only one goal he should have in his career.

        He is number 2 in the rankings so he can certainly get the fight vs Wilder some time this year.

        About the rematch with Joshua, it would be nice, but not immediatelly.

        Joshua is the worst matchup for Wlad in the division right now, there are lots of mandatories surrounding the IBF and WBA belts. How about negotiating the rematch for march/april next year, it could be a better option and even involve an unification.

        If no Wilder, a fight against Parker or Ortiz could be a great option.
