Live On SHOWTIME; Encore Presentation During Saturday?s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING? Telecast
NEW YORK (Dec. 2, 2016) ? WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder will join the SHOWTIME announce team as a guest analyst for the IBF Heavyweight World Championship fight between undefeated champion Anthony Joshua and American challenger Eric Molina on Saturday, Dec. 10, live on SHOWTIME (5:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. PT).
Wilder (37-0, 36 KOs) will join host Brian Custer and analysts Al Bernstein and Paulie Malignaggi for the SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL? presentation from Galen Center at USC in Los Angeles, site of that evening?s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast.
The ?Bronze Bomber? just completed rehab for a fractured right hand and torn right bicep (see video above) as he (Wilder) sets his sights to unify the division in 2017. Wilder is acutely familiar with Molina, having defeated the fellow-American in the first defense of his title in June, 2015 on SHOWTIME.
"I know firsthand just how tough Eric Molina is,? Wilder said. ?He?s coming to win because it?s a chance for him to win a world title, and he?ll definitely push Joshua. Whoever wins will have to see me eventually because it?s my goal to collect all the belts and become the undisputed heavyweight champion.''
Joshua is making the second defense of his title against Molina, who is getting his second shot at a belt in his quest to become the first Mexican-American heavyweight world champion.
An encore presentation of Joshua vs. Molina will air as part of the SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast later that evening, following the main event showdown between WBA Featherweight World Champion Jesus Cuellar and three-division former champ Abner Mares. In the opening bout, Jermall Carlo will defend his IBF Junior Middleweight World Championship against fellow-undefeated challenger Julian Williams.
