Deontay Wilder Given Six-month Suspension

American boxer, Deontay Wilder, has been given a six-month suspension following his trilogy heavyweight fight defeat to British fighter, Tyson Fury, a few days ago.
The suspension will enable Wilder to undergo surgery on his broken hand.
Wilder was knocked out by Fury in the 11th round of their thrilling trilogy fight in Las Vegas last weekend.
The 35-year-old put Fury down on the canvas twice in the 4th round but was unable to capitalise as the Gypsy King went on to retain his WBC heavyweight title.
Wilder will now be unable to fight until next April unless he is given clearance by a doctor after the Nevada State Athletic Commission handed him a six-month medical suspension due to his injuries following the fight.

Speaking on the development, Wilder’s co-manager, Shelly Finkel, revealed that the boxer would have an operation next week after breaking a bone in his hand.
“Deontay broke his right hand behind the third knuckle and he has to have that fixed next week,” Finkel told The Sun.

“I expect Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard to lead the Arsenal attack in this game,” Merson said.
“I like Trossard. He plays in all the big games because he’s such a reliable and good footballer. But I don’t expect Arsenal to open PSG up with this trio. Their real chance is through set-pieces,” he said.
PSG and Arsenal head to the game after eliminating Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid, respectively, in the semi-final earlier this month.

“If PSG want to win this final, they cannot afford to let Arsenal score the first goal,” Merson said.
“We know how difficult Arsenal can be to break down. Even PSG can play defensive like they did against Bayern in the second leg, but their front-three is just superior to Arsenal.
“Even if Arsenal try, they cannot match PSG’s attack,” he said.

Djemba-Djemba believes that if his former teammate chooses not to retire by 2030, Portugal should certainly include him in their World Cup squad.
He stated on BetVictor via GOAL, “He is driven by a desire to enhance his skills and to compete. I have never encountered a mentality quite like his. If he is still active when the 2030 World Cup takes place in Portugal, I firmly believe he should be included in the team.”
Djemba-Djemba further remarked that it would represent the perfect conclusion to Ronaldo’s career if he were to play in the 2030 World Cup alongside his son before retiring from professional football.

Ronaldo holds the record as the top goalscorer in international men’s football, with 143 goals to his credit.
