What's more, it would pit champion vs. champion in an intriguing matchup between the hardest hitter in the sport and it's biggest star. Let's project some odds....
WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder - 35-0, 34 KOs - took his time choosing an opponent for his title defense on January 16. Unfortunately for the fans, it's not somebody to really get excited about.

Just one fight after losing to Fedor Chudinov via split decision in a bout for the vacant WBA super middleweight title, the German star is getting an immediate rematch.
