Deontay Wilder is known as one of the biggest punchers ever to grace the sport of boxing. But how many knockdowns did he score in his career?
World Boxing News has crunched the numbers through Wilder’s 47 fights. “The Bronze Bomber” had leveled his foes 37 times through his first four years alone.
Although the knockdowns became fewer over the next decade, Wilder still managed another 28 drops until his final knockdown in 2022 against Robert Helenius.
The total tally is an astonishing 65 times the former WBC heavyweight champion’s opponents have hit the canvas.
In another eyebrow-raising stat, Tyson Fury and Luis Ortiz join Harold Sconiers and Owen Beck as the fighters knocked down the most by Wilder. The quartet got planted four times each between them.
