And why would Al Hamon want to promote a fighter that he is not "advising"?

So let me think about this... an American TV network (Showtime) are broadcasting a world heavyweight title fight involving an American (Deontay Wilder), which is being staged in a Stadium in America (Las Vegas)... and January 17th could end a seven and a half year drought since the last time an American held the title (Shannon Briggs - June 2007).

The event is being co-promoted by two American promoters (Don King & Golden Boy).

The title fight involves a hyped-up undefeated American title challenger that has knocked out all 32 of his opponents and his bouts have never lasted more than four rounds.

... And you're seriously telling me that you are surprised that the American promotional videos created by an American TV network have a natural bias towards the unbeaten American knockout specialist for a fight being staged in America and promoted by American promotional companies?

The fight never went to purse bids, so it's pointless to mention this.

And why would Don King or Golden Boy want to lose the co-promotional rights for the Wilder-Stiverne title fight to Roc Nation, who would exclude them both from being involved in the promotion of this event?

It’s nice to know that we have some highly intelligent and mature forum members that like to carefully consider the posts that they submit.

That being said, it does surprise me to read the thoughts from the very same people discussing the gynaecological disorders that causes their female family members to emit foul odours from their lady parts!

caldo2025 wrote:It really is a great point made here by the Poster. There is hardly any promotion of this fight. I can't understand this. There was more publicity over the Danny Garcia/Salka fight. This should be way bigger than it is. We could have an American Heavyweight Champion! How is that not important to the sport.

With that said, i think that this fight is going to be a snorefest. Smart money is on Wilder but Stiverne has one punch power as well. There's a huge reach disadvantage for Stiverne though and in order to get inside, his chin better be tucked or it's lights out.

Anybody wonder why there has been no promotion or press tour about this fight. Alhaymon doesnt not want stiverne name promoted. The fight is built as Wilder winning the WBC belt for USA. On all the TV commercials its WILDER.
Roc nation were winning the purse bids and naturally stiverns team wanted it but Goldenboy/Alhaymon would have got him stripped. Its sad how they wanted the WBC belt for free so badly.

I really hope this doesn't go to the judges.

The only good thing is that shoudl Wilder win, his options will a Voluntary, Mandatory vs Povetkin, Or Unification vs Wladimir
He will certainly take a voluntary. Lets hope the russians win purse bid should Povetkin get his shot.

"There's a sucker born every minute" - P.T. Barnum

We have seen this script before. Hyped bronze medal winner in a weak draw ( won second match 10-10 ) turns pro fighting trail horses and journeyman and somehow vaults his way into a title fight without beating a top 40 level opponent! Can you say manufactured and marketed? I know USA boxing is at a low tide, but I smell bottom shelf can of tuna here.

News flash to those keeping score. Wilder was down and rocked by limited opposition in the pro's and Ko'd in short amateur career. His stamina, and defense are untested in the pro's. His chin has already been tested, and we know.

Stivererne for his part can box and punch. His defense is solid enough. Don't be surprised if this one end early with Wilder out. So says boxing history.
