Deontay Wilder (45 wins, 4 losses, 1 draw, 43 KOs) will face Jai Opetaia (31 wins, 0 losses, 24 KOs) in the co main event of Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua on Friday 11 December 2026 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The full card streams live worldwide on Netflix.
Opetaia, the unbeaten Australian cruiserweight champion and former IBF titleholder, steps up to heavyweight for the first time. In September he stopped Noel Mikaelian in the ninth round in Las Vegas.
Wilder held the WBC heavyweight title from 2015 to 2020 and remains one of the most feared punchers in the history of the division. He returned to winning ways in April with a split decision over Derek Chisora and now looks to become the first man to beat Opetaia as a professional.
