Watch: Heavyweight boxer wins with stunning uppercut KO

See one of the best boxing KOs of the year.

Heavyweight Dillian Whyte seemed to have Alexander Povetkin on the ropes in the fourth round of their WBC interim heavyweight title bout on Saturday, scoring two knockdowns on Povetkin to take control on the card and come close to finishing the fight early. All it took was one punch for Povetkin to earn a shocking comeback win.

Thirty seconds into the fifth round, Povetkin knocked out Whyte before he hit the floor with a vicious left uppercut. This is one of the best heavyweight KOs you’ll see all year long.

Eddie Hearn said after the bout that the two fighters will have a rematch after Whyte is able to recover.
