Deontay Wilder’s team is conducting talks with former IBF Heavyweight Champ Charles Martin regrading both former world champions facing off. This is probably the best route back for Wilder. It couldn’t have come at a better time for him. Martin is a more tailor made comeback opponent for him. 

This is going to be a big confidence and self-esteem builder for Wilder. He’d be making a strong statement with an early KO within 4 rounds and possibly the first like he did Bermane Sterven in their previous bout. 

The question I have is: with this fight happening and Joshua/Fury moving forward, where does this leave a possible Wilder/ Fury trilogy fight or a Wilder Vs Joshua matchup moving forward? 

Could it be true that Bob Arum and Fury are seriously thinking of just bypassing Wilder from now on and moving forward? Yet, wouldn’t Wilder still become either Joshua or Fury’s mandatory by the WBC, depending on who wins that matchup? 

This is going to be an interesting journey for Wilder in 2021. If I were him I wouldn’t worry all that much knowing the kind of shrewd businessman that Al Haymon of PBC is. Wilder has to know that “BIG AL” has his back. Well, l let me hear your thoughts boxing fans.
