Get ready for a serious power-up on next month’s highly anticipated Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua fight card because Deontay Wilder is stepping into the ring. Ring Magazine announced Wednesday that the former WBC heavyweight champion is officially on the Dec. 11 undercard, adding some serious firepower to what was already a massive event.

The Bronze Bomber’s Next Challenge

Wilder, known for his explosive power, is taking on a serious threat: undefeated Australian slugger Jai Opetaia. This ain’t some tune-up, folks. Opetaia is a legit talent, and putting him against a former champ like Wilder just makes this card even more must-watch. We’re talking about a guy who held the WBC belt squaring off against a hungry, unblemished fighter. That’s the kind of clash that gets boxing fans buzzing.

Netflix Card Just Got Heavier

This isn’t just a big fight; it’s a big fight on a massive stage. The Fury vs. Joshua card is already slated to be a huge event, streaming live on Netflix. Adding Wilder to the mix with an undefeated opponent like Opetaia kicks the star power up another notch. You know Netflix is looking to make a statement with this boxing debut, and stacking it with Deontay Wilder is absolutely how you do it.

So mark your calendars for Dec. 11. With Wilder now in the mix, going up against a tough, undefeated Australian, the Fury vs. Joshua card just got that much more insane. You won’t want to miss a second of this action.
