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.

“The Bronze Bomber” has never looked like the same boxer since being knocked out by Tyson Fury in the seventh round of their rematch on February 22, 2020.

“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) said Xtalking 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 of throwing things just for fear 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 past five years, beating his former sparring partner Robert Helenius by first-round knockout in 2022.
