Wilder has been absent from the ring since being knocked out by Fury in October 2021 Robert Helenius will be Wilder's opponent in New York this October in his first fight in a year The Bronze Bomber has not been in the ring since being knocked out by Fury last October, but the 36-year-old returns next month to take on Finland's Robert Helenius in New York.
