October 15 Deontay Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) will return to the ring against Robert Helenius (31-3, 20 KOs). The former world heavyweight champion promises to be in great shape and that he will regain his title.

“I have sparred over 400 rounds so far and the training camp is going great,” says the Bronze Bomber. — We are trying something new, so Don House joined my team in Las Vegas. We wanted to change a few things, go through more rounds and see how it works."

"I've had a great career behind me, but now I'm back to start my second reign," Wilder said. - I'm looking forward to the fight with Robert. I respect him very much, but, unfortunately, this is the way this business is, sometimes you have to run into each other. But remember - just because we know each other doesn't mean this fight won't be interesting!"
