Deontay Wilder was pretty much losing every second of every round in the Luis Ortiz rematch, that is, until, he violently finished the Cuban with a single punch, winning by brutal knockout in the seventh round.

America's hard-hitting heavyweight, the WBC champion, told Business Insider ahead of his 10th world title defense at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas that any opponent of his needs to box perfectly for the 36 minute duration of a 12 round fight.

Wilder, in contrast, only needs to box perfect for the second it takes to throw and land the perfect straight right hand, he said.

On Saturday, that proved to be true.

After being outboxed, out-thought, and out-classed, Wilder sent Ortiz into the ether.
