Wilder returns to the ring wearing BLK Prime this April

Deontay Wilder will take on an opponent yet to be determined on BLK Prime in April. Wilder's manager Shelly Finkel will reveal the opponent on Saturday in Los Angeles.

To make BLK Prime worth it, Wilder has to fight someone fans are interested in seeing. In the past two games, his performance was very poor, losing to Zhang Zhilei and Joseph Parker.

Return in April

There are rumors that Francis Ngannou may fight Wilder. If that's the opponent, some people will want to watch this fight because Ngannou gives Tyson Fury a lot of problems. This is a deformed Fury.

Former WBC heavyweight boxing champion Wilder (43 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss, 42 KOs) will lose to Zhang Zhilei in the fifth round knockout in Riyadh on June 1. This was the 39-year-old Deontay's fourth loss in his last five games since 2020.

The slap Zhang slapped Wilder was much harder than the slaps Tyson Fury received in his three fights with Wilder.

Since being knocked down by Tyson Fury in the seventh round of the rematch on February 22, 2020, the “Bronze Bomber” has no longer looked like the same boxer as before.

“I heard @BronzeBomber will be back on BLK Prime in April. Wilder and head coach Shelley Finkel will meet with the media in Los Angeles on Saturday to announce the opponent,” Manuk Akopyan (Manouk Akopyan) on X when talking about Deontay Wilder’s next fight.

Fans would like to see Deontay fight with the same brutal aggression as he did in his best years, but that seems unlikely to happen. Now in his late 40s, he is an ultra-rich man with an estimated net worth of $40 million, but he can no longer pull the trigger.

Not that he can't. He seemed to be afraid to throw things away simply because he was afraid of being encountered. This is how Fury hurt Wilder, and he seems to have a hard time forgetting the horrific experience.

Wilder has won just one fight in the last five years, beating his former sparring partner Robert Helenius by first-round knockout in 2022.
