Is the Breazeale fight confirmed for Wilder?

[juggernaut666]

It will be Breazeale. The WBC went out of their way to make him mandatory and PBC only have Luis Ortiz as a viable alternative and Adam Kownacki for the spring after he's beat Charles Martin. Wilder will again take $2.5 million, half what he was offered for other fights because Haymon/PBC/Showtime is a racket. Wilder won't fight Joshua until September/October next year. Fury is not a viable fight, it doesn't make enough money before one of them has fought Joshua and he is fighting at least 3 cans in a row.

"Adam Kownacki for the spring after he's beat Charles Martin."

Im not so sure about that !


"Wilder will again take $2.5 million,"

Wilders never made 2.5 hes closer to an even 2 Million and wont see 3 without any promotion behind him .


Breazeale isnt a can , Izu is a better stronger fighter then Parker who he defeated while over weight .

People are going to sooner or later figure out just bc Joshuas fights are one sided it doesnt apply to Wilder .

Eric Molina was just the first example , and now they will see it with Breazeale who certainly can knock Wilder out on any giving night , and were going to see how Wilder does without significant reach advantage he relies on .

Nope, it should be confirm right now if it’s on PPV. Unless he isn’t fighting his year.

Wilder and PPV don't mix.

pov v braz for undisputed

He was never presented with anything to sign that would have stopped Povetkin from being next. Wilder didn't sign because the contract he was sent had no language whatsoever guaranteeing the fight would be next. Povetkin was Hearn's plan all along.

You always make it sound as if Wilder's team was given an hour to decide.
There will always be issues to be resolved,
and you only need minutes, hours, not several weeks to resolve them.
Problem was they were more interested in pissing off Hearn than making the fight happen.
They made him wait for weeks.
Meanwhile, Povetkin was also waiting and needs to decide for his next step if the AJ fight doesn't happen...

I heard he is calling out Pac

They were never given the choice to decide! They agreed to the fight, Hearn said give me a few days to get you the date/venue, they said no problem.

A few days later, Hearn emailed them saying he'd decided to fight Povetkin next and the date/venue would be April/Wembley.

So Wilder was never given the opportunity to sign for a 2018 fight.

Keep on lying.
Even in this very forum Wilder's deafening silence was felt
when he was handed the contract.
His team responded after 12 days.
Man how much time do you need to resolve issues you know can be solved in minutes or a few days?
Any amateur promoter can resolve such minor issues as date and place.
Give me a effing break!

Hearn controls the A-side. If he doesn't want the fight next, the fight isn't going to be next. Wilder was never ever sent a contract that said the fight would be next, or when the fight would be at all.

If Breazeale is his next fight, why not notify the guy so he can start training early?

Unless you're name is Canelo, PPV just doesn't really happen anymore over here.
