The long-awaited return to the ring of the former WBC heavyweight king Deontay Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) will be held early this morning, from Saturday to Sunday in Kyiv. Duel of the "Bronze Bomber" with Robert Helenius (31-3, 20 KOs), which will be the main event of the Premier Boxing Champions evening in Brooklyn, will be held in the United States in a pay-per-view broadcast on the Fox TV channel, which, by the way, will cost $ 75 for local fans.
According to the official battle cards, Wilder and Helenius should not appear in the ring before approximately 7:00 a.m. Kyiv time, but it is worth setting the alarm for an earlier time, as in case of faster outcomes in the undercard battles, the start of the main event may change. The broadcast of the main matches of the evening starts at 4:00.
In the main event of the undercard, former world super middleweight champions Caleb "Good Hands" Plant and Anthony "The Dog" Dirrell will fight in the WBC eliminator. The broadcast will feature undefeated Cuban sensation Frank Sanchez, who will take on Puerto Rican Olympian Carlos Negron in a 10-round heavyweight bout. Bantamweight contenders Gary Antonio Russell and Emmanuel Rodriguez will meet in a 12-round rematch that will open the main broadcast.
