Deontay Wilder Knocked Out in Fifth Round by Zhilei Zhang

Zhang Scores Biggest Win of Career

Wilder's Career May Be Over

In a stunning upset, former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder was knocked out in the fifth round by Zhilei Zhang on Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The Chinese powerhouse landed a crushing right hand that sent Wilder crashing to the canvas. Wilder was unable to get up, and Zhang was declared the winner by TKO.

The victory was the biggest of Zhang's career, and it may have effectively ended Wilder's. Wilder, who was once considered one of the most fearsome punchers in boxing, has now lost two of his last three fights. He was knocked out by Tyson Fury in 2020, and he drew with Fury in their rematch last year.

Zhang, on the other hand, is now undefeated in 24 fights. He is a rising star in the heavyweight division, and his victory over Wilder has put him in contention for a world title fight.

The fight was part of a Queensberry vs Matchroom 5v5 card in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Other fights on the card included Daniel Dubois vs. Filip Hrgovic and Dmitry Bivol vs. Gilberto Ramirez.
