Deontay Wilder To Fight Stephan Shaw

Deontay Wilder is set to face second-tier heavyweight Stephan Shaw in his comeback fight on BLK Prime PPV in Atlanta, Georgia. The 39-year-old is in a must-win situation after losing his two fights and four out of his last five. The fight will show whether Wilder can still be viewed as a marketable fighter and if he fails to defeat Shaw (20-2, 15 KOs), it would be a sign that he needs to retire. Wilder's 7th-round knockout loss to Tyson Fury in their second fight in 2020 was a turning point in their career, as he stopped being the aggressive 'Bronze Bomber' that fans had once known. Shaw, a sturdy fighter, has been viewed as a future contender in the division and one of the guys who could potentially fight for a world title.
