Deontay Wilder Next Fight: Five 'Bronze Bomber' Options After Tyrrell Heardon Win
- Deontay Wilder secured a seventh-round TKO against Tyrrell Herndon during his return bout held last Friday at the arena in Wichita, Kansas.
- Wilder returned after a June 2024 knockout loss to Zhilei Zhang and a run of losing four of five prior fights amid personal struggles and a $400,000 alleged theft.
- Wilder knocked Herndon down twice early on, first in Round 2 and again in Round 6, consistently landing powerful punches while Herndon remained defensive and refrained from counterattacking.

- The win may mark the start of a comeback for Wilder, who aims to regain a heavyweight championship, though some see the Herndon fight as only a preliminary step.
