The Wilder Excuses Begin

[TitoFan]

Oh absolutely. I've always been very outspoken in my criticism of Wlad, and yet I have to give him credit for like you said, masking his weaknesses well enough to rule over the division as long as he did. Of course, there were some MADDENING fights along the way, such as the Povetkin one. Had I been in Alexander's shoes I would've gotten disqualified because I would've kicked Wlad in the balls for his antics (which of course Wlad should've gotten points deducted or a DQ himself). But rule the division he did, to the detriment of heavyweight boxing fans everywhere. He learned from those early KO losses.... but man, did some of his later fights stink up the joint.

So Finkel and Hayman called yesterday's planned meeting with Hearn off. Very strange actions for somebody so desperate to do a deal. The 24hr deadline too with no contract prepared? it all sound like a PR move to ensure Breazeale goes ahaed and Wilder can pretend that it is Joshua ducking him.
