Victorious return to the ring for former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs), as it turned out, did not arouse much interest among American boxing fans.

According to Dan Raphel, the PPV broadcast of the Bronze Bomber fight with Robert Helenius (31-4, 20 KOs), which ended with the victory of the American by knockout in the first round, was bought by only 75,000 people.

This result is only 10,000 better than Andy Ruiz Jr vs. Luis Ortiz. The price set for both events was the same at $75.
