In 2019, the Swedish heavyweight gained notoriety after persevering past Tyson Fury and leaving his opponent with lacerations and cuts.

Wallin, a Swedish southpaw, is best known for fighting Tyson Fury for 12 rounds in 2019, with an advantage against "The Gypsy King" before losing on the judges' scorecards and could ruin plans for a Wilder and Joshua fight.

After defeating former cruiserweight champion Murat Gassiev in September, Wallin enters the bout fresh off one of his greatest performances to date.
