Deontay Wilder returns: Date and Opponent set

In his prime, Deontay Wilder was one of the most feared boxers in modern history before his trilogy with Tyson Fury.

Wilder has lost four of his last fights, many may have already written ‘The Bronze Bomber’ off, but he hasn’t.

For some time now, a comeback has been rumored. The rumors are true.

Global Combat Collective has officially announced Wilder’s return to the ring, finally revealing an opponent and a date.

Global Combat Collective announced in a press conference that Wilder is scheduled to take on Tyrrell Herndon on June 27 at the Charles Koch Arena in Wichita, Kansas.
