Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder: I Showed Everyone That I Can Take a Punch

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York - Deontay Wilder survived a pummeling from Luis Ortiz, then knocked out the challenger in the 10th round Saturday night to retain his WBC heavyweight title. Befitting the undefeated champion from Alabama, it was a wild affair for the final few rounds after a dull series of pawing and gesturing by Wilder gave Ortiz a solid lead. Even after Wilder knocked down Ortiz in the fifth round, the bout remained in the Cuban's favour.

As much as AJ gasses and gets hit with right hands, there's no way anybody can write off Wilder in that fight.

Can't wait to see it. These two young guys are providing the drama the HW division has needed.

The big brown Mule from Alabama showed the world who is the true champ !!

Joshua BEWARE!!

True story of the highway patrol (if you remember that show, you're awesome)--guy stayed on his feet in the 7th against a guy that hits pretty hard. Also enjoyed in the post fight interviews how Showtime's camera people kept it tight on Gray as he called for more security during the Wilder interview when the Ortiz crew tried to pull a "Dirrell's uncle" lol. Ortiz himself was VERY classy in defeat. New respect for that guy.

Great showing by Wilder. His first true test and he passed and also showed his determination to come back from adversity. Ortiz is a top heavyweight and still has what it takes to become champ.
