Doubt it would be very big but if Bryant Jennings pans out as well there might be something there.

americans aren't nearly as biased as you think we are, man.
when the best come to your country to fight your biases loosen.

He's already 27 years old. Poor management killed this dudes career.
And the U.S. Olympic heavyweight boxing class was pure unadulterated ass cheeks this year. I don't see a dominant heavyweight in the U.S. emerging for a long, long time.

I'd say that the mystique of the heavyweight division is gone.

Wilder has been poorly managed, but he he is very talented and has the potential to become a big star.

If 6'7 D.Wilder turn out to be the real legit deal and KO top 10 opponents leading up to a super fight with Wladimir. Can he be a mega PPV Star?
Assuming some how he ends up on Prime Riddick Bowe level.
I mean if he is promoted right and end up knocking out the likes of Puluv-Povetkin-Adamek and other top 10 HW'S all leading to the big fight with Wlad. I see him becoming a decent PPV STAR.
The big issue imo with HW Marketing right now is that NOBODY knows who Puluv or Povetkin is. .So even if Wilder 'ko' the #3 guy in Povetkin, people will be like 'so what? who's that?
