By Scott Gilfoid: If Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer gets his way he’ll be looking to match his talented undefeated heavyweight Deontay Wilder (27-0, 27 KO’s) against #9 IBF Tony Thompson (37-3, 25 KO’s) in a fight that would be televised on CBS so that more American boxing fans can see the 6’7” Wilder, according to ESPN.
With his fights limited to the premium channel Showtime, it keeps a lot of American fans from getting a glimpse of the young knockout talent, but Schaefer would like to change that if possible so that more fans can see Wilder in action.
