    Given his bomb of a right hand and devastating knockout power, how likely is it that Deontay Wilder, before he hangs up his gloves, will break Lamon Brewster's 52-second KO record in a heavyweight title bout?

    I thought it was Herbie Hide? Not sure about Wilders chance to break it? Depends on who he fights I guess.

    So Hide and Brewster took the same amount of time to defend their WBO straps versus Reed and Golota respectively (52 seconds). Would you pair Hide's and Brewster's wins together because they took the same amount of time OR should Hide be first as the record holder since his KO took place before Brewster's?

    Jeffries holds it in my estimation because Brewster/Hide are not legit champs by my criteria. But in your question I would say Hide holds for setting it first.
