Fastest road to a title shot for Deontay is via Bermane Stiverne or Chris Arreola. These are the 2 fighting for Vitali's vacated title so if he can knock one of them off it will be him fighting for it instead.

After that there might finally be a unification with Wlad so if he plays his cards right, he is only 3 fights away from undisputed HW champion... 3 REAL fights that is! lol
