broadcasted via a joint pay-per-view from FOX Sports and ESPN.

Wilder, who previously held the WBC title since January 2015, has not fought since his seventh-round technical knockout defeat to Fury, the first loss of his career. He and Fury previously drew in December 2018, when he scored two knockdowns.
The winner of Saturday’s fight could move on to a unification bout with WBA (super), WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, who defeated former champion Anthony Joshua on Sept. 25, though Joshua has activated a rematch clause vs. Usyk.
