33-year-old Deontay Wilder boasts an impressive 40‑fight unbeaten record that includes 39 knockouts going into his fight with Tyson Fury tomorrow.

The showdown will be staged at the Staples Center in Los Angeles with millions of fans around the world set to tune in with the hopes of seeing another heavyweight classic.

Wilder says this fight means everything to the heavyweight division.

He says this division was once in a dark place [but] we’ve brought the sport back to life.

The ‘Bronze Bomber’ stands at 6ft 7in, or 2.01m

That makes him slightly shorter than Fury, who is 6ft 9in.

Wilder’s reach has been measured at 210.8cm, somewhat shorter than Fury’s 215.9cm reach.

The fight program will start at 3pm tomorrow.
