Deontay Wilder gave the fans all they could ask for with his vicious knockout punch of Polish fighter Artur Szpilka Saturday night at the Barclay's Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. Watch as his right hand connects with Szpilka's chin in the ninth round sending him to the floor.

The Alabama native improved to 36-0 with 35 KOs. Despite Tyson Fury coming into the ring after the bout it looks like Wilder will face Russian Alexander Povetkin. It remains to be seen if he can add a 36th KO in his next bout.
