Wilder is very smart

[AL_Camino]

He knows he is a very limited fighter

He avoids any unification with Klitschko who was a legend of the game.

He waits his whole career and God knows how many fights before taking on his first real test in Ortiz.

The timing of this was significant as Ortiz had looked trash in his last few fights and had aged badly. He sc****s a win with the help of the ref.

He then avoids Whyte and Joshua for career high pay days. smart move. Whyte then proves he is legit by beating Parker when many thought he would lose.

He decides to take on Fury now. Again brilliant timing. Over two years out after a coke and booze binge and becoming obese. With a new trainer who is an amateur and with 2 warm up fights against roadsweepers.

Wilders fans lap it up.

The guy is a genius at giving himself every advantage.

You forgot the part where he was going to fight Povetkin in Russia, and was already in the UK finishing camp, when Povektin got caught juicing, and that happened before Ortiz.

This is a lie. Klitschko was committed to Jennings before Wilder was even a champion. Then Klitschko owed Fury an overdue mandatory, which would have been difficult to avoid as Fury was simultaneously the WBA and WBO mandatory.

Klitschko and Wilder had the same manager, who said Wilder needed two quick defenses before he'd be ready for Klitschko. So Wilder made two quick defenses before Klitschko even fought Fury. Wilder went public in a major article before the Klitschko/Fury fight calling out Klitschko for a fight in 2016. A fight being planned by Finkel for SHO PPV as soon as Klitschko's HBO deal was up.

Big problem. Klitschko was shockingly upset by Fury, ruining the whole plan.

But your claim that Wilder avoided unification is ridiculous because Klitschko lost all of his titles the same year Wilder won his title.

Well that explains that

You made a logical post,without name calling or trolling..which means this post will sadly be ignored more than likely.

Beautiful narratory.... except it's BS.

Wilder Will Not Be Rushed To Klitschko, Says Finkel

WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (33-0, 32KOs) is still very much a work in progress, says his co-manager Shelly Finkel. After last Saturday's world title win over Bermane Stiverne, the hype began growing for a fight between Wilder and WBO/WBA/IBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko.

Finkel, who manages Wilder with Al Haymon and Jay Deas, also works closely with Klitschko.

He says there is no need to rush Wilder into big fights against the best of the division; that despite a world title he still needs time to grow and groom his skills.

“Look, (Wilder) is a baby winning the title. It was his first title fight, they'll be a time for unification, they'll be a time for all those things, he could go and Povetkin (the No. 2 contender) in Russia and make $10 million,” Finkel said to the Tuscaloosa News. “It's not the right thing yet. Give him a couple of fights, maybe bring something back to Alabama. Let him develop just like any other athlete. They don't take someone who is a great college prospect and throw him right in. And this kid is a great prospect.”

One fight that could happen this year is a match against unbeaten EBU/British champion Tyson Fury.

"He's still a baby, a prospect!" he was like 30 years old LMAO.

Wilder has made a mistake if this fight happens. If he wins people will say that fury wasn't ready and if he loses people will say he was a hype job all along. He should only take this fight if the money is exceptional.

If I'm spinning, then please tell the class what I said that wasn't true.

Beautiful narratory.... except it's BS.

If it was BS, you'd have pointed out something I said that wasn't true. But you couldn't. So instead, you posted an article that actually proved my point. Finkel was very honest about wanting Wilder to make a couple quick defenses before matching him against Klitschko. When he said that, Klitschko wasn't available anyway. Finkel kept his word and scheduled two quick defenses. Wilder fought two times in between the Jennings and Fury fights. So before the Fury fight even takes place, Wilder had already taken the couple fights Finkel talked about and Wilder was now ready to face Klitschko.

If Klitschko didn't lose, the fight with Wilder was going to happen in 2016. But when the previous poster claimed Wilder ducked unification, that is a flat out lie. The year Wilder won his title is the year Klitschko lost his titles. There was never time for unification. Unification was scheduled for 2016, but didn't happen because Klitschko lost.

none of these fighters give a **** what a few freaks on message boards think about their opponents

when wilder beat Ortiz a bunch of crabs on boxing forums claimed Ortiz is 80 years old, gasses and was garbage anyway.....despite them claiming he was being avoided by wilder previously

AJ has said his career "isn't determined by what people want"....

you clowns need to stop this narrative about how guys shouldn't take certain fights cause fans "will say this or that about the opponent"

fighting fury, no matter what peoples opinions are about him currently as a fighter, will raise wilders profile.....beating him will raise wilders profile and get him a bigger piece in AJ negotiations...theres no question about that

so take your opinions on furys physical shape and ability, at this point, and toss em right out the window...they don't matter

yeah thats why his manager said he was a baby and is not interested in a unification fight yet, thats grabbing the bull by the horns after 40 or whatever fights alrite, hes getting there though, he has multi million dollar contracts to mull over
