Deontay Wilder made perhaps the biggest statement of his career on Saturday night, knocking out Bermane Stiverne in the first round in devastating fashion. “I’ve been waiting on that fight for a long time,” Wilder told Showtime after squashing Stiverne. I know I’m the champion. I know I’m the best.”Wilder (39-0, 38 KOs) certainly acted like it on Saturday. He peppered Stiverne (25-3-1)—who, in their first fight, had been the only opponent of Wilder’s career to last the distance—with jabs for the first 90 seconds of the fight.
