Where is the Deontay Wilder vs Tyrrell Herndon fight?

The fight is set to be held at Charles Koch Arena in Wichita, United States. 

The 10,506-capacity venue famously hosted a trio of Elvis Presley performances between 1974 and 1977, but is an unusual locale for a major boxing match.

Deontay Wilder vs Tyrrell Herndon form and history

It feels almost surreal to find Wilder at this point in his career, a former world champion once considered among the pound-for-pound greats ever seen at heavyweight.

But despite pushing Tyson Fury all the way, he has never quite recovered from the two losses of their blockbuster trilogy, results that ended his reign as a major kingpin.

Since then, losses to two other prime contenders - ex-WBO title holder Joseph Parker and ex-WBO interim strap man Zhilei Zhang - has seriously dinted his lustre.

Even so, that his comeback bout after a year is not a major-money payday against onte of the division's other key fighters offers insight into the man and his own terms.

As he winds down his career, Wilder wants to recapture that winning feeling - and even if it means a nominal step down from the limelight, he will still relish a return.

But Herndon won't go easily as a fall guy to set up a juicier steak - say, Anthony Joshua - down the line; he will be walking into that ring intent on ending his foe's time.
