DEONTAY Wilder returns to the ring TONIGHT as he takes on Tyrrell Herndon in a huge heavyweight clash.
Many thought we had seen the last of the Bronze Bomber after his knockout defeat to Zhilei Zhang 12 months ago.
Wilder’s beating marked his fourth loss in his last five fights, with his only win coming against journeyman Robert Helenius in October 2022.
The Alabama puncher’s defeat to Zhang blew his chances of an overdue bout with Anthony Joshua, prompting discussion over which direction the Bronze Bomber’s boxing career would go next.
Wilder’s bid to return to the top of the heavyweight division begins against Herndon, who is on a three-fight win streak and is out to pick up the biggest win of his career.
