Comments Thread For: WBC Prez Embraces The Idea of Wilder vs. Povetkin Next

[N/A]

wilder wants to fool everyone into believing he's being avoided when we all know he's the one that's ducking aj by pricing himself out of the fight.

How can you price yourself out of a fight that's not available? Hearn doesn't want AJ to fight Wilder until the end of the year.

Wilder is publicly demanding 50/50 just like Parker did. Did that stop Parker from getting the fight? No.

When Hearn wants to make the fight, they'll make it. Hearn will ask for 70/30, Wilder will ask for 50/50, and they'll make a deal at 60/40.

Stop being so gullible.

Let's hope that's the case, I wanna see the fight this year, Wilder is not getting any younger they should fight while he's in top physical shape.

I don't mind Povetkin Vs Wilder/Joshua so much if we don't get Joshua Vs Wilder next for whatever reason. But i certainly don't wan't it taking the place of that fight.

Anyway Price is de-railing any future Povetkin fight(s) :ROCK:
(Not really).

I was told that after his chin transplant Price is a killing machine!

If both keep winning and don't get injured, the only way the fight doesn't happen this year is if HBO offers Matchroom a ton of dates to bring their stable to HBO exclusively.

HBO would love to stop this fight from happening, but there are so many factors at play right now. HBO is trying to get UFC and until they know whether they're landing UFC or not, they can't really make any big boxing moves. It's another motivation for Hearn to stall so he has a better idea of the US landscape and what money is going to be available where.

If Hearn can get 12-18 dates a year on HBO and take over as their primary promoter, he has to take that deal. Even if it means no AJ/Wilder. But will HBO make that kind commitment? TBD.

Well he didn't embrace it 2 years ago

So WBC officially allowing Wilder to only fight boxers who are at least 39 years of age now? Stiverne, Ortiz and next Povetkin, all 39 yo, coincidence? I don't think so :P

Sorry they keep failing drug tests (ortiz- povetkin) they have like 10 failed tested between the 2 of them that with Wilder breaking his hand in stivetne 1. Luck has not gone his way. You can't blame him for when these guys pass there tests

You can blame him for cherry picking tho.
