After experiencing an annual dismissal, former WBC world champion, DEONTAY WILDER, returns to the ring because he will face Tyrrell Herndon (24-5, 15 KO) on Friday evening, June 27, in Kochita, Wichita, Kansas, Streaming Live at BLK Prime and PPV.com.
Wilder experienced a rapid fall from glory because he has now lost two fights. His opponent, Tyrrell Herndon, is aware of the fact that the fight against Deontay Wilder is a great opportunity, and in the Night of Fighting Herndon plans to employ this moment.
After the creation of seven successful defense of the world title, Deontay Wilder was ready to defend his WBC belt against Tyson Fury in December 2018. Wilder Pwloni Fury twice, but after the 12-round competition, the fight was recognized as a distribution of the switchgear.
Deontay Wilder would shoot victory with a knockout over Dominik Breazeale and Luis “King Kong” Ortiz. On February 22, 2020, Deontay Wilder defended his title against Tyson Fury for the second time.
The tenth defense of WBC Wilder’s title would be his last, because Fury stopped at Wilder in the seventh round. Almost two years later, Fury and Wilder fought for the third time and once again Fury won the space.
Wilder bounced from victory in the first round in the style of attractions over Robert Helenius. It seemed that he returned to his aged self, but unfortunately for Wilder a few trips to Saudi Arabia changed the trajectory of his boxing career.
In December 2023, Joseph Parker defeated Wilder when he defeated him in a unanimous decision. Six months later, Wilder returned to Saudi Arabia, and Zhilei Zhang stopped him in the 5th round.
Now the 39-year-old former heavyweight champion DEONTAY “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder (43-4-1, 42 KO) is located at a crossroads because he is to face an opponent who is unknown. For Wilder, the fight with June 27 is a target, but for his opponent it will be a fight defining a career.
After losing to Corey Barlow and suffering the fourth defeat in his career Tyrrell Herndon began to start nine wins. In October 2023, Herndon was to face the undefeated Richard Torrez Jr.
Herndon entered the ring, looking incredibly unprepared when Torrez overwhelmed Herndon with his activity. It was a brief box of boxing when Torrez stopped Herndon in the second round.
Tyrrell, from San Antonio in Texas, Herndon bounced, leading a series of victory in three fights. Now he is to fight the former world champion in massive weight, who is extremely hazardous.
Herndon is a forceful blow that has a good right hand, but his opponent is a hardly striking warrior with a destructive right hand. The last two losses of Wilder came against opponents who were able to pass him thoroughly and neutralize his right hand.
It is very doubtful that Tyrrell Herndon is able to open Wilder thoroughly and avoid Wilder’s great right hand all night. Realistically, the clash of Wilder versus Herndon should be a brief match that Wilder ends spectacularly.
Deontay Wilder is a boxer who has never had a powerful set of skills, but for several years he was afraid of many because he is potentially the largest knockout artist in the history of boxing.
On the night of June 27, Wilder wants to dominate Herndon and maintain a potential fight with a lot of money with Anthony Joshua. Over the past few fights, Wilder has looked like a man whose heart was not completely devoted to boxing sports.
On Friday evening, June 27, Wilder must revive his passion for a fight. Losing this fight is not an option because the former WBC World Heavyweight, DEONTAY WILDER champion, stands in the face of Win Huge or return home.
Wilder parted from many years of coach Malik Scott, replacing him with Don House, an experienced corner with a senseless approach. The change signals a more aggressive reset.
Oleksandr Usyk could be involved in one of the “biggest fights in cruiserweight history”, just so long as he is willing to drop back down to 200lbs.
The 39-year-old has not fought at the weight since 2018, when he became the undisputed king by dethroning Murat Gassiev with a wide points victory.
Usyk also defined his cruiserweight reign with a majority decision triumph over Mairis Briedis, before moving up in weight and becoming a two-division world champion.
He did so by dethroning Anthony Joshua in 2021, with the Ukrainian then winning their rematch and eventually facing Tyson Fury for all four major heavyweight belts.
Then, this past June, Usyk made the decision to vacate his titles after having become a two-division undisputed champion and secured a harder-than-expected 11th-round stoppage of former kickboxer Rico Verhoeven.
Still, though, the decorated southpaw intends to fight for a short while longer and, according to Ring Magazine’s Mike Coppinger, has mentioned a Fury trilogy and David Benavidez clash as possible options.
Speaking to Last Stand Podcastunified cruiserweight champion Benavidez said he would gladly face Usyk at his current fighting weight.
“The point I wanted to make when we’re talking about Usyk is: I don’t know if that would be at heavyweight or cruiserweight. Didn’t Usyk relinquish all his belts?
“In my opinion, it would be a bigger fight at cruiserweight because, once I capture this [WBC] title, that would be three belts [on the line]. It would probably be one of the biggest fights in cruiserweight history.”
While a potential Usyk showdown could be explored, Benavidez has already committed to facing WBC champion Michal Cieslak in December and verbally agreed to fight Jai Opetaia next year.
