DEONTAY WILDER has invested in a state-of-the-art home boxing gym ahead of his return fight.
The former WBC champion looks to revive his career on July 27 against little-known Tyrrell Herndon.
And he will do so having prepared for the bout in his custom-built gym dubbed “King of God’s Army.”
It features a full-sized ring, several different boxing bags all with Wilder’s logo printed out on it and LED lights to give a “dramatic” feel.
There is also a lounge area and a massage table to relax in after tough sessions and motivational messages surround the building.
Wilder purchased a £1.3million home in California in 2020 while still living in his £1m mansion in Lake Tuscaloosa.
The American was knocked out last June by Zhilei Zhang, 42, having been stunned on points by Joseph Parker, 33, in December 2023.
His last win came in 2022 when he knocked out Robert Helenius in one round.
Wilder was twice lined up to fight Anthony Joshua but blew his opportunity after defeats to Parker and Zhang.
Joshua, 35, later lost to Daniel Dubois, 27, and has since been recovering from an elbow injury that required surgery.

He is eyeing a return before the year ends as Frank Smith – CEO of Matchroom Boxing who promote AJ – named Wilder as a potential opponent.
Smith told Boxing News: “Do you know what fight I love? If he comes through his warm-up, Deontay Wilder.
“This sport is about narrative. It’s about buying into fights that people have interest in and that’s a fight that everyone would still have interest in.
“Regardless of whether it didn’t happen five years ago, people still want to see it now. So hopefully he can come through his fight.”
SKY’S Ring doorbell rival has just received a bunch of upgrades in a bid to win over more households.
Few realise that the broadcasting giant has its very on smart security devices.
Sky Protect launched in May 2023 as an alternative to Ring, Nest and other big brands.
The products available not only include a video doorbell, but also indoor cameras, motion sensors and leak detectors.
However, you can’t simply buy the gadgets outright like any other item.
Sky Protect bundles the devices to a home insurance service.
The devices are worth £250 and are included at no extra cost, to offer extra peace of mind alongside the insurance policy.
But in an update, Sky has revealed a number of improvements.
“We’ve made it even easier to spot night-time visitors by improving the Night Vision feature on our Video Doorbell,” the firm said.
“We have made two updates which give you higher quality and more reliable image from your Video Doorbell.”
Night Vision mode now captures even clearer images, by reducing any bright white glare that could wash out your image, for a sharper and clearer view.
It’s also more reliable now too, preventing any problems that could previously cause a pink screen.
Elsewhere, the update prevents any missed doorbell presses.
And the ding dong happens twice as fast.
There are new controls for clip recordings as well, which will help the battery.
So, from now on you’ll be able to adjust the maximum recording length of time your Video Doorbell records for when it detects motion.
This ranges from 15 seconds, 30 seconds and 60 seconds.
You can do this in the Sky Protect app by doing the following:
