BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- Heavyweight world titleholder Deontay Wilders 2016 fight schedule is over.Although Wilder retained his belt with a one-sided, eighth-round knockout of Chris Arreola on Saturday night at Legacy Arena, the two significant injuries Wilder suffered in the bout will keep him out of the ring for the rest of the year, promoter Lou DiBella told ESPN.com on Sunday.Wilder, who broke his right hand and suffered a probable right biceps tear, spent most of the night at UAB Hospital. He will be back at the hospital soon, likely for two surgeries, one to repair each injury, DiBella said.Hes definitely going to need surgery on his right hand, DiBella said. He will have it as soon as is practical. He will likely also require surgery on his biceps.After the fight, Wilder, who was obviously in pain, winced as his right glove was removed and had ice put on his biceps. Then he came to ringside and told media members that he believed his hand was broken and displayed his disfigured biceps. Later in the dressing room, Dr. David Williams, an Alabama commission physician, diagnosed the broken hand and said Wilder also had a probable distal biceps tear.The 30-year-old Wilder (37-0, 36 KOs), one of boxings biggest punchers, has broken his right hand at least twice previously. After a first-round knockout of Travis Allen in 2009 (Wilders seventh professional fight), Wilder had the hand surgically repaired; pins were inserted to stabilize it. Wilder suffered a stress fracture in the same spot during his world title victory against Bermane Stiverne in January 2015, although he did not require a second procedure.Wilder, of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, likely suffered the injuries against Arreola (36-5-1, 31 KOs) in the fourth round, when Wilder badly hurt Arreola, knocked him down with an onslaught of shots, including a big right hand, and then nearly stopped him in the final seconds of the round.Deontay is definitely out for the remainder of the year, but we will know more in the next few days, DiBella said.Wilder fought through the injuries but essentially stopped using his right hand after the fourth round. But he was strong enough with his left jab and hook to continue breaking down Arreola, 35, of Riverside, California, until his trainer, Henry Ramirez, asked referee Jack Reiss to stop the bout after the eighth round. Arreolas left eye was swollen closed, and he had a bad cut over his right eye.These are very significant injuries and he was hurt early in the fight, so the fact that Deontay kept up his work rate as a one-armed fighter was pretty remarkable, DiBella said. He put such a beating on Arreola with one arm. Some damage was done early, but Deontay showed huge heart and will. He has the heart of a lion, the heart of a champion. Theres no reason to think he wont be back and be fine in 2017.Also on Sunday, Wilders team, including DiBella, co-manager Shelly Finkel and DiBella attorneys Alex Dombroff and Judd Burstein, met for about two hours with WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman and others from the sanctioning body, whose title Wilder holds, to discuss the situation related to the failed drug test of mandatory challenger Alexander Povetkin of Russia. DiBella declined to discuss the specifics of the meeting.Wilder was supposed to fight Povetkin on May 21 in Russia, but Povetkin tested positive for trace amounts of the banned substance meldonium and the fight was called off nine days beforehand. The WBC then permitted Wilder to have an optional defense, which came against Arreola.About two weeks ago, Povetkin and his team met with WBC officials to present their side of the story. The WBC has to decide whether Povetkin will keep his mandatory status and if there will be any punishment.

MANCHESTER, England -- Theres a new craze sweeping through the Premier League -- and it spells bad news for the traditional center forward.In the last three rounds, as many as seven teams have started matches with a winger or attacking midfielder playing as a converted striker.Take last weekend, for example. Roberto Firmino, an attacking midfielder, started up front for Liverpool as he has for most of the season and scored in a 4-2 win at Crystal Palace.Winger Alexis Sanchez led the line again for Arsenal and scored twice in a 4-1 win at Sunderland.Eden Hazard, usually a left winger, was a goal-scorer and star player for Chelsea after starting the 2-0 win at Southampton in such an attacking position that he was often playing further forward than striker Diego Costa.Right wingers Nathan Redmond and Michail Antonio were central strikers for Southampton and West Ham, respectively.Meanwhile, for two of Tottenhams last four games, South Korea attacking midfielder Son Heung-min has started as the main striker. And Swanseas American coach, Bob Bradley, played midfield playmaker Gylfi Sigurdsson as a lone striker against Arsenal for his first game in charge.Established international strikers like Daniel Sturridge, Divock Origi, Olivier Giroud, Vincent Janssen, Shane Long, Michy Batshuayi and Fernando Llorente have often had to be content with a role as substitute at the expense of wingers or midfielders. Some of them havent even come on.Even the player widely regarded as the best striker in England has been affected. Sergio Aguero was on the bench for Manchester Citys Champions League game at Barcelona, with coach Pep Guardiola preferring playmaker Kevin De Bruyne up front so he could drop back to help his midfield.English soccer is late to the party when it comes to the converted forward or false nine, which was popularized by the successful Barcelona and Spain teams of the past decade and also in the European game by current world champion Germany on occasion.At the turn of the century, it would be rare to see a Premier League team that didnt start with two strikers. A decade later, playing with one target-man has become the vogue. Now, some teams dont even have one, or sometimes play strikers out on the wing instead.Why the change?Its been coming for a while, according to Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who spoke last year about the lack of out-and-out strikers in Europe after a fruitless search in that years transfer window.What we produuce now are good technical players because there are nice pitches out there, Wenger said.dddddddddddd Before, you played in the park where you had to kick the ball up front and you had to fight. A boy of 12 who played against a boy of 16 had to be shrewd and push to get the ball.All those kind of things have gone.Then theres a growing preference for a high-energy pressing game, which relies on a more mobile forward line. Hence why Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp chooses Firmino over Sturridge and Origi, why Son has sometimes been preferred to Janssen as the lead forward for Tottenham in injured Harry Kanes absence, and why Sanchez looks like being the preferred choice to Giroud at Arsenal this season.The likes of Sanchez, Redmond and Antonio -- three quick, hard-working wingers -- can stretch play by making runs behind defense, allowing their teams many attacking midfielders (Mesut Ozil, Theo Walcott, Dusan Tadic, Dimitri Payet) more space to exploit.As for Hazard, relieving him of defensive duties is one of the key reasons Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has turned the Belgium winger into more of an out-and-out forward. Hazards attacking flair was stymied last season by then-coach Jose Mourinho, who made him work too hard defensively.You have a similar type now in England who looks happy to have moved from wide to center, said Wenger, who converted Thierry Henry from a winger to one of the best strikers of his generation. Most of the time, you develop a good technique on the flanks as a winger because you are against the line and you have to dribble. And when you are inside, you have a bit more room.Slowly infused into the Premier League, the false nine isnt so popular among the top teams in Europes top leagues at the moment.Strikers and speedy forwards are still the priority in Spain, with Barcelona (Luis Suarez), Real Madrid (Karim Benzema) and Atletico Madrid (Kevin Gameiro) having genuine strikers.No major team in Germany plays without a classic striker -- except for the German national team itself, and thats only the case when strikers are injured -- and the phenomenon hasnt really spread to Italy or France yet.---Associated Press writer Joseph Wilson in Barcelona, and AP Sports Writers Jerome Pugmire in Paris, Nesha Starcevic in Frankfurt, Germany, and Andrew Dampf in Rome contributed to this report.
