Wilder went back to the ring last October for the first time since his 2nd loss to Tyson Fierceness. 'The Bronze Bomber' made quick job of his return, dispatching of Robert Helenius in the preliminary with a trademark right hand.

All the article fight talk was about a clash with Andy Ruiz Jr, the battle having been ordered by the WBC as a last eliminator for a chance at Fierceness's belt. What seemed like a rule dragged out as well as has actually currently gone totally quiet.

Wilder has actually been linked to all the greatest names in the division, consisting of Anthony Joshua, Oleksandr Usyk, a fourth battle versus Fury and even a two fight deal with ex-UFC champion, Francis Ngannou.

Talking To Boxing King Media, Scott would not be drawn right into pointing out any kind of particular names, but said a 'really' huge news was close.

“We are about to head into pre-camp, the opponent that we’re looking at can’t be named right now, we have just a very, very big situation coming up and we’re going to be well prepared for it.”

The fitness instructor then took place to make a vibrant pledge to the fans concerning Wilder's future.

“What I will tell you, what I will promise you is that Deontay is going to be a two-time heavyweight champion of the world.”
