Deontay Wilder KO 's Ortiz In The 7th Round

"With Ortiz, you can see why no other heavyweight wants to fight him, he's very crafty. He moves strategically, and his intellect is very high. I had to measure him in certain places. I had to go in and out, and finally, I found my measurement." - Deontay Wilder

The path is now clear for another rematch between Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury. The fight is likely to happen In February 2020, but no date has been confirmed.
