Knockout specialist Deontay Wilder recently got back to winning ways and is now being mentioned with all sorts of different opponents.
The once long-reigning WBC champion Wilder had not fought for a year when he stepped into the ring this last weekend against American Tyrell Herndon. Before that, he had lost four of five, including twi knockout defeats to Tyson Fury, one to Zhilei Zhang and a points loss to Joseph Parker.
Wilder did what he was supposed to do against Herndon and got the stoppage in the mid to late rounds, however many in the sport were not impressed by the showing. Regardless, he is now looking to push on once more as he fights towards world honours.
Speaking to Seconds Out, Frank Warren was asked about who he would like top put in against Wilder, and he went with the former Commonwealth and British champion Fabio Wardley.
“Well, if you put him in with one fighter from our stable, it would be someone I want to beat him. I’ll tell you what would be a really exciting fight, him and Fabio. Two bangers.”
Wardley is on the rise right now. The Brit stopped Justis Huni in the 10th round in his last fight after falling well behind on the cards, and before that, stopped Frazer Clarke in brutal fashion in their rematch after going toe-to-toe for 12 rounds in a hugely entertaining draw in their initial bout.
He has also beaten the likes of David Adeleye and Nathan Gorman and has 18 KO wins from 19 fights in all, so he would likely make for a great fight with Wilder. Should the American be looking for a fast-track to the top of the rankings, Wardley holds the WBA Interim title.
