DEONTAY WILDER has announced he’s ready to return to the ring as he bids to become a two-time heavyweight champion.
The former dominant WBC king hasn’t set foot in the ring since his brutal one-punch knockout of former sparring partner Robert Helenius last October.
Deontay Wilder has announced his plans to return to the ring
The Bronze Bomber has been using his time out to spend time with his family but is itching to throw heavy leather.
He wrote on Instagram: “I have been enjoying family, life, and all that it brings, but now it’s time to return to the ring.”
The Bronze Bomber’s legion of followers were quick to comment on the announcement.
One wrote: “Bro already found the next victim.”
Another said: “Let’s gooooooo!!! Victim locked in. Bombzquad!”
And another said: “The king is back! Where his crown at?”
One remarked: “Can’t wait.”
Another chimed in: “NO MORE LOSSES. Victories till the end!”
Wilder’s announcement of his imminent return comes a matter of days after former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou claimed he’s closing in on a showdown with the American.
During an appearance on The MMA Hour, he said: “Yes, we have had the conversation and at this moment, we’re more closer than with anybody else.”
The Predator said of the potential showdown: I think somebody will take somebody’s head off.
“I would just try [for it] not to be mine. I think that’s probably what’s going to happen.”
