Deontay Wilder Comments on His Victory Over Herndon

Former WBC Heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (44-4-1, 43 KO) reflected on his win over fellow American Tyrrell Herndon (24-6, 15 KO).

“It felt great. Herndon is a tough guy. I appreciate this fight.

I had plenty of time to pull myself together—mentally, physically, emotionally. It’s been a long road for me, and I’m glad to be back in the ring.

I know I didn’t give everyone exactly what they wanted to see, but we’re going to get better. This is a new beginning for me. I promise you, I’ll keep getting better and better,” said Wilder.

On the night of 28 June, Wilder stopped Herndon inside the distance—dropping him in rounds two and six, before the referee stepped in during the seventh as Herndon was barely staying on his feet.
