In from the Wilder
Tonight is the big night for Deontay Wilder!
The Bronze Bomber is back in action and looking to resurrect his career on home soil against journeyman Tyrrell Herndon.
Back-to-back defeats have left his career hanging in the balance.
Wilder, now 39, is hoping for a statement win as he chases big fights over the next 18 months.
The long-anticipated meeting with Anthony Joshua continues to be a real possibility - having blown two big chances in previous years - while there could be a big-money meeting with MMA star Francis Ngannou.
