Former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder returns to action against Tyrrell Herndon on Friday, June 27, live at Charles Koch Arena in Wichita, streaming exclusively on BLK Prime at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT / 2 a.m. BST. The event, titled Legacy Reloaded, is presented by Global Combat Collective and marks Wilder’s long-awaited comeback.
Wilder hasn’t fought since his unanimous decision loss to Joseph Parker last year in Saudi Arabia. This time, it’s personal.
Herndon (21-3, 18 KOs) is walking into the fire. A big puncher with grit and zero fear, he’s ready to gamble his jaw on a once-in-a-lifetime shot. Wilder (43-3-1, 42 KOs) is promising nothing short of destruction.
The undercard features co-main wrecking machine Deon Nicholson, plus a heavy local lineup of Wichita-based prospects and top U.S. punchers eager to make their mark.
