Wilder would like to compete in the UFC before retiring

Former WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder said that he would like to fight under the rules of mixed martial arts in the UFC before retiring.

“I can do both. I'll be the most dangerous guy in the UFC with four-foot gloves. I can catch some big guy, throw him to the ground, climb on top and beat the crap out of him,” the American said in an interview with Blue Blood Sports TV.

Let us remember that Wilder has not appeared in the ring since October 2022, when he knocked out Robert Helenius.
