Wilder can't wait to see the afterlife.

Deontay Wilder, former WBC heavyweight champion of the world, has declared that he is not afraid of death.

"I like to talk about life and death, and death is a taboo subject for a lot of people. Nobody wants to die. I'm a realist, and I'm not afraid of death. I look forward to seeing the afterlife, and sometimes I think Earth is not the right place for me to live. Maybe I'm an alien, I don't know," Wilder said in an interview with Frank Warren's Queensberry Promotions.

Recall, already on June 1, Wilder will have to hold a bout with Zhang Zhilei.
