In his recent video in one of the social networks, Wilder unexpectedly touched on the topic of transition to the cruiserweights.
āWhatās up, boxing world?,ā Wilder said. āYou know, Iāve just been sitting in my car, thinking. Iāve been thinking about once I unify the heavyweight division, moving down to the cruiserweight division, taking over that division. I mean, thereās never been a heavyweight champion ever go down in weight. I mean, just for the fun of it, just take over the cruiserweight division while maintaining the heavyweight. Yeah. What do you guys think?ā
