Deontay Wilder has no designs on boxing retirement after declaring he will fight three times a year until he turns 40.
The former world heavyweight champion was twice brutally stopped by Tyson Fury in their world title trilogy and took over a year out of the ring. He returns to action on October 15 against Robert Helenius in New York, and has now claimed that he wants to be active until he turns 40 in late 2025.
Wilder will compete once before his birthday this year, and then has three more years of three fights a year, meaning a further nine bouts in theory. He still has designs on becoming a world heavyweight champion, and will have been closely watching last weekend's unified bout between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua in Saudi Arabia.
