Deontay Wilder and Jai Opetaia are set to face each other in a co-feature bout on the undercard of the highly anticipated Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua heavyweight championship fight, which will be streamed live on Netflix.

The matchup between former WBC heavyweight champion Wilder and rising cruiserweight star Opetaia adds significant depth to a card already headlined by two of boxing's biggest names. Details regarding the date and venue for the Fury-Joshua event have not been officially confirmed, but the streaming partnership with Netflix marks a major shift in boxing broadcast distribution.

Wilder, known for his devastating knockout power, will look to rebound from recent losses, while Opetaia aims to make a statement in the heavyweight division after dominating at cruiserweight.
