WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder has flare for the dramatic when it comes to his fights. Whether that be knocking out his opponents or his ring entrances.
That won't change on Saturday, February 22, when he takes on Tyson Fury at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
The Bronze Bomber spent $40,000 on a custom made walk-out costume, which he says will pay tribute to Black History Month.
"It's gonna be amazing, man ... come Saturday night," Wilder told TMZ Sports. "One of the things that I made a promise to myself, and talking to my adviser, Al [Haymon]. When I got to a certain point in my career I said, 'Man, you know I wanna give the boxing fans ... I wanna give the world something they can remember me by.' Not only just the knockouts, but me expressing myself before coming out entering into the ring."
As cops try to figure out who targeted Pop Smoke for death ... we know the rapper shut down one of his own performances just days before his murder out of concern there were gang members in the audience.
Pop was scheduled to play the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn last Sunday night, but took to Instagram just before the show to cancel. Pop blamed it on cops, saying, "Unfortunately NYPD wouldn't let me perform."
Our law enforcement sources say it wasn't the NYPD that shut the show down ... they say the decision was made by Pop himself. The rapper was out on bail in a federal car theft case and was ordered to stay away from gang members, so cops say canceling the show was really self-preservation.
There's been a buzz in L.A. among Pop's circle that gang members might be behind his murder. The fact that Pop himself had concerns about gang members was something that has not escaped the attention of police.
TMZ broke the story -- the feds busted Pop last month for allegedly transporting a stolen Rolls-Royce -- and that's why he was on bail.
As we first reported ... Pop Smoke's death appears to be a targeted hit based on accounts by those who saw surveillance footage from outside the Hollywood Hills home where he was gunned down.
Pop Smoke's family had no clue if he had any enemies in L.A. The case remains under investigation.

FAYETTEVILLE, NC (AP) — Authorities in North Carolina say they’ve solved a 20-year-old cold case by tracking down a woman accused of killing her newborn son and dumping his body in 1999.
The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that it charged 54-year-old Deborah Riddle O’Conner with first-degree murder Thursday.
Investigators alleged she gave birth to the baby just one day before he was placed in a trash bag and tossed from a car south of Fayetteville.
DNA was recently sent to a lab for testing, and detectives used the results to locate O’Conner.
The sheriff said she admitted to being the boy’s mother.
A California prison inmate confessed in a letter that he beat two child molesters to death with a cane while behind bars just hours after his urgent warning to a counselor that he might become violent was ignored, a newspaper chain reported Thursday.
Jonathan Watson, 41, confessed in the letter to the Bay Area News Group in Northern California that he clubbed both men in the head on Jan. 16 at the California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison in Corcoran.
Prisoner David Bobb, 48, died that day. Graham De Luis-Conti, 62, died three days later at a hospital. Both were serving life sentences for aggravated sexual assault of a child under 14.
Watson is serving a life sentence for a 2009 murder conviction.
Days before the attack, he said his security classification was changed and he was transferred from a single-person cell to a lower-security dormitory pod at the Central Valley facility. Watson called the switch a “careless" mistake and said he had protested the decision.
Watson wrote that six days after he arrived at the prison, a child molester moved into the pod. Watson believed the man began taunting other inmates by watching children's television programming. Watson said in the letter he couldn't sleep that night “having not done what every instinct told me I should’ve done right then and there."
Two hours before the attacks the next day, Watson told a prison counselor that he urgently needed to be transferred back to higher-level security “before I really (expletive) one of these dudes up,” but the counselor “scoffed and dismissed" him.
Watson said he returned to his housing pod.
“I was mulling it all over when along came Molester #1 and he put his TV right on PBS Kids again,” he wrote, according to the newspaper chain. “But this time, someone else said something to the effect of ‘Is this guy really going to watch this right in front of us?’ and I recall saying, ‘I got this.’ And I picked up the cane and went to work on him.”
Watson said he then left the housing pod to find a guard and turn himself in, but on the way, he saw “a known child trafficker, and I figured I’d just do everybody a favor,” Watson wrote. “In for a penny, in for a pound.”

Mikaela Spielberg is opening up about her headline-making new career.
The 23-year-old daughter of acclaimed director Steven Spielberg, who adopted her with wife Kate Capshaw, has spoken out about her aspirations to become an adult entertainer. In a new interview with The Sun, Mikaela explained that she is hoping to do "erotica," described by her as "pictures and videos for private customers or for the public, if that ever arises."
She also shared that she is hoping to get a dancing license to do what she "loves most" in her spare time and "make money from it, which is dancing essentially."
Per The Sun, Mikaela lives in Nashville with her 47-year-old fiancé. "The reason I don't want to do anything outside of solo stuff is because I feel like it would be a violation of my boundaries and my relationship with my significant other," she explained.
As for the type of adult entertainment she does want to do, the outcome feels good for Mikaela. "I got really tired of not being able to capitalize on my body," she said. "Frankly, I got really tired of being told to hate my body...and I also just got tired of working day to day in a way that wasn't satisfying my soul."
Mikaela added, "I feel like honestly doing this kind of work, I'm able to 'satisfy' other people, but that feels good because it's not in a way that feels violative."
In regard to her famous parents, she told them about her career decision on FaceTime and told The Sun they were "intrigued," but not "upset."
"I actually think that once they see how far I've come from the bottom I was at a year and a half ago, they're going to look at this and go, 'Wow, we actually raised a really self-assured young lady and we've raised someone who knows exactly what they want in life and who basically doesn't let people push her around,'" she told The Sun. "I think they will be supportive possibly even with some security measures in place once they know that I'm doing this out of like this gentle, genuine desire to not survive, but thrive as well."
Mikaela, who spoke of her borderline personality disorder, suffering "grooming" and abuse by "scumbag monsters" outside of her family and her struggle with anxiety, depression, an eating disorder and near-fatal alcohol abuse, told The Sun, "I'm in a good place right now, but we all have relapses. Being open in this way and sharing my story and choosing this career is not a relapse for me. I actually feel very grounded and validated right now."

(CNN) There was outcry last year when it was announced that a hologram of Whitney Houston was set to go on tour years after she died.
That hasn't changed now that folks are getting a sneak peek at the show.
"An Evening With Whitney : The Whitney Houston Hologram Tour" is set to kick off February 25 in the UK and footage of it making the rounds on British TV is eliciting quite the response.
"I'm not saying the Whitney Houston hologram tour will be a hot mess, but they are suggesting she had as much grace as a malfunctioning The Sims character wafting away a fart on #ThisMorning," one person tweeted.
The singer, who died in 2012 at the age of 48 after an accidental drowning, is the latest celeb to get the hologram treatment.
Holograms of Tupac and Roy Orbison have also made headlines.
In 2018, Amy Winehouse's estate announced plans to produce a hologram concert tour to celebrate the singer's legacy.
The Grammy-winning singer died of accidental alcohol poisoning in 2011. She was 27.
Pat Houston, the pop star's sister-in-law, former manager and now president and chief executive officer of her estate said in a statement last year, "Whitney prided herself on her family and that included her fans."
"She adored her audiences and that's why we know she would have loved this holographic theatrical concept," Pat Houston said. "An event at this level is something special and Base Hologram's track record to be fully authentic and respectful made them the perfect partner. This upcoming tour will allow audiences to experience Whitney's amazing voice and passion for music for a long time to come and help them share that magic with future generations."
Base is the company behind the hologram tour.
