Wilder will step back into the ring on June 27 in Wichita, Kansas. He'll face Tyrrell Anthony Herndon in a 10-round bout, marking his return after a technical knockout loss to Zhilei Zhang.
But Wilder's comeback isn't just about his next fight. He's got his sights set on bigger targets. In a recent chat with TMZ at LAX, Wilder didn't mince words about his rivalry with Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller.
"I hope he's already paid for his burial," Wilder said. "If I saw him today, I'd give him a good slap right now. I don't mess around."
Miller's criticism of Wilder sparked this heated exchange, adding fuel to their budding rivalry.
Wilder's ambitions extend beyond personal feuds. He's aiming for the top of the heavyweight division once again.
"This is just my return. I'm going for all the belts in the heavyweight division," Wilder declared in the TMZ interview.
The current undisputed heavyweight champion, Oleksandr Usyk, sits atop Wilder's hit list. But he's not the only one in Wilder's crosshairs. The Bronze Bomber has also expressed interest in facing Francis Ngannou, further expanding his potential opponents.
With 43 wins, 4 losses, and a staggering 42 knockouts to his name, Wilder's power can't be ignored. However, at 39, questions linger about whether he can reclaim his former glory.
As Wilder gears up for his comeback, the boxing world watches with bated breath. Will the Bronze Bomber rise again, or has time caught up with the once-feared knockout artist? Only time will tell as Wilder steps back into the ring, determined to prove he's still a force in the heavyweight division.
