Wilder: I'm in the Boxing Hall of Fame!

Deontay Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) is convinced that his previous achievements in the ring have already secured him a place among the greatest boxers in history.

“I already have the right to be included in the Hall of Fame. As soon as I finish boxing, I will automatically enter the Hall of Fame, no questions asked! If it wasn't, I would be surprised," Bronze Bomber said in an interview with Boxingscene.com.

Deontay Wilder, who lost to Tyson Fury in his last two fights, will return to the ring on October 15 against Robert Helenius (31-3, 20 KOs). The fight will be the WBC heavyweight semi-final.
