Former WBC super heavyweight division titleholder Deontay Wilder expressed confidence that he can knock out the division's absolute champion, Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, ahead of schedule.

"I know how to knockout Usyk. I will knock him out! He's too small for me and his style is perfect for me. My strength, power and speed will be too good for him," Wilder said in an interview with Fight Hub TV.

Wilder will face Zhang Zhilei, the former WBO interim champion, on June 1 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
