Former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder ended a losing streak by stopping Tyrrell Herndon in the seventh round on Friday in Wichita, Kan.

Wilder (44-4-1, 43 KOs) dominated en route to the technical knockout.

Fighting for the first time in more than a year, Wilder had lost each of his two most recent fights, to Joseph Parker in 2023 and Zhilei Zhang in 2024, and four of his past five. The other defeats in that span both came against Tyson Fury, in 2020 and 2021.

Herndon (24-6, 15 KOs) also ended a one-year layoff. He went to a knee after being hit by a Wilder left-handed punch in the seventh round. When action resumed, the referee stopped the fight after Wilder landed with his right.

A left jab from Wilder knocked down Herndon in the second round.

On the undercard, Nico Hernandez scored a technical knockout against Robert Ledesma in the second round of a super bantamweight bout, and Deon Nicholson stopped Devonte Williams with a fourth-round TKO in a light heavyweight fight.

Giants WR Jalin Hyatt attributes ‘darkness’ to massive offseason weight gain

Getty Images After a 2024 season that fell well below expectations, Jalin Hyatt went to great offseason lengths to revive his career. Hyatt said that he added 20 pounds to his 6-foot frame, a weight gain that the veteran receiver attributed to last year's disappointments. After a decent rookie season that saw him show flashes of his potential, the Giants' 2023 third-round pick caught just eight passes in 16 games last season. "I played at like 170, 171 last year. I'm about 194, 195 now," Hyatt recently said on the Giants' in-house podcast, via NFL Media. "I'm telling you, that's what darkness does to you. It changes you."Prior to getting drafted, Hyatt's calling card was his speed (he ran a 4.40 in the 40-yard dash at the 2023 combine) and game-breaking ability during his time at Tennessee. During his final season […]
