Comments Thread For: Wilder Shoots Down Idea of Being Named WBC Franchise Champ

[factsarenice]

I see... so if they just keep skipping over White and continue to make him fight more and more guys he'll wait another 2 years and never get Mandatory. Wilder gets a pass and he can rematch again, it's like having an uncle in the WBC.

Wrong. Whyte was ranked #1 in WBC for a while, but was not mandatory as he refused to fight Ortiz and others. Mandatory is different to ranking.

Whyte screamed about fighting AJ too, for 3 belts!!!! then went quiet and ran when the signed contract arrived.

You really think he wants Wilder?...

[boxingfan4ever]

Wilder will defend his belt against a mandatory as long as his name isn't Dillian Whyte. FACTS!

You are wrong....Breazele was first contender over White, White had to wait that Breazele had his chance....a world champion have to defend his title one time a year v.s the #1 contender....but White is a ped user and may be lose his chance for the title Next year....easy

Wilder doesn't need a Franchise belt, the WBC only picks tomato cans for his Mandatory.

[factsarenice]

He refused White and will continue to refuse White, that's a fact.

You are wrong....Breazele was first over White, White had to wait that Breazele had his chance....a world champion have to defend his title one time a year v.s the #1 contender....but White is a ped user and may be lose his next Year chance dor the title....easy

He refused White and will continue to refuse White, that's a fact.

Whyte is a good figther... but Ortiz and Fury are better than Whyte, and more dangerous...Whyte is an easy knock out by Wilder, he has a weak chin...

Its crazy how some fans could believe Wilder duck Whtye ? When Wilder agree to fight Whtye if Anthony was next on the contract.hmm!! But hey, what do i know

[The3]

AJ vs Ruiz winner will become the franchise champion by WBC rules that man will become the underpuring champion

[nghtmr111]

Mandatory or not, I can't believe Whyte is still being brought up like he deserves any respect or credibility after the positive test situation... aka the curious case of Benjamin b sample

Wilder doesn't need a Franchise belt, the WBC only picks tomato cans for his Mandatory.

Who cares what the mandatory is when he's fighting the likes of Fury and Ortiz voluntarily?

This isn't an Adonis Stevenson situation where he's holding a belt hostage picking off prospects and washed up fighters to extend his reign.

Ortiz
Fury
Breazeale
Ortiz
Fury

That's a very, very high quality of opponent for a five fight span.

Compared to Fury:
Pianeta
Wilder
Schwarz
Wallin
Wilder

Or Joshua:
Takam
Parker
Povetkin
Ruiz
Ruiz

Or Ruiz:
Vargas
Johnson
Dimitrenko
Joshua

Lol. A little research goes a long way. 1st it was jennings. Jennings gave up his spot to fight wlad. Making way for povetkin vs perez for the spot. Povetkin ko'd him in one round and said he wanted his shot immediately. Wilder brought up drug testing.....suddenly povetkin wasnt ready for a year. Only to test dirty when he got his shot. Not only that, he tested dirty again the same year before his interim bout with stiverne. Making stiverne #1. Stiverne was suppose to fight breazeale for the spot. But stiverne got the wilder fight instead. Leaving breazeale in position to fight for the mandatory. So out of all of this......how do find any of this to be the fault of wilder??? Oh yeah, whyte was only #1 contender. When did he fight for a mandatory spot???

Wilder wasn't called to fight any mandatories until Povetkin which was due ,Wilder had just won the belt in 2015 so that's a lie. Mandatories aren't due until a year or so ,the Jennings vs Wlad fight didn't take place until April 2015 that means Wilder was only champion for 4 months so Jennings isn't relevant, Povetkin was he was named his mandatory that year stop lying.

Wilder could have fought Jennings who defeated Szpilka but he chose the loser of that fight. Nobody ever fought for a mandatory spot besides Breazeale who was his only second mandatory ,get a grip . Ha
