New cruiserweight prospect and brother of current World Boxing Council heavyweight champion Deontay, Marsellos Wilder, recorded his fledgling career’s second straight first-round knockout.
Wilder trapped Ryan Williams in the corner towards the end of the opening session, and the fight was quickly halted following a couple of solid blows.
Deontay has already warned the world of the power his 29 year-old sibling possesses, and with less than five minutes of ring time, Marsellos seems content to avoid any overtime in the early stages of his career.
