Zhilei Zhang vs. Deontay Wilder 5v5 live fight updates: Zhang wins by TKO 5, Queensberry vs. Matchroom results

Chinese powerhouse Zhilei Zhang scored an emphatic fifth-round TKO over Deontay Wilder and may have closed the lid on the former WBC heavyweight champ's career at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh on Saturday. The official time was 1:51.

Zhang (27-2-1, 22 KOs) blasted home a heavy right-hand shot to the jaw of Wilder in the fifth that forced him to spin 180 degrees into a corner. Quick as a flash, another right landed flush and the American just melted to the canvas and lay flat on his back. Always brave, "The Bronze Bomber" found his feet, but the referee had no choice but to wave the fight off.

"I would like to thank the fans in China," Zhang told DAZN via a translator. "I successfully took his right hand away. I blocked a lot of punches, but, hell yeah, he punches hard, and I give him a lot of respect.

"I'm on the road to facing the champion."

WATCH: Queensberry vs. Matchroom: Zhang vs. Wilder 5v5 live on DAZN

Up until the end, it was a very disappointing fight. Wilder simply backed off and offered a simple little paw with the left hand. Zhang remained in hot pursuit and applied a lot of pressure on an opponent who struggled to pull the trigger. The writing was on the wall very early.

The ending saved the show, which included some excellent action from start to finish.

The Sporting News provided live results, analysis, and highlights from the big card in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia:

Zhang vs. Wilder from Queensbury against Matchroom 5v5: Live updates, results, highlights

THE WINNER IS THE 280-POUND PLUS ZHILEI ZHANG, WHO SCORES THE STOPPAGE AT 1:51 OF ROUND 5. THIS MIGHT BE THE LAST TIME WE SEE DEONTAY WILDER IN A BOXING RING. THE AMERICAN IS NOW 1-4 IN HIS LAST FOUR STARTS.

QUEENSBERRY DOMINATE THE 5V5, WINNING 10-0 OVER MATCHROOM.

Round 5: Wilder lands two big rights that trouble Zhang somewhat. He's also warned for punching behind the head. HUGE RIGHT HAND SENDS WILDER STUMBLING INTO THE CORNER AND HE GOES DOWN. The ex-champ miraculously gets up but he is GONE! The fight is stopped with Wilder wobbly on his feet.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: -

Round 4: One-two lands by Wilder - let's break out the champagne. Right to the body from Wilder backs the Chinese fighter up. Zhang jabs to the body. Zhang just misses with a fight-ending left. The American is too cautious -- simply pawing with his left hand while retreating -- and it's making for a nightmare of a fight

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-9 Zhang (40-36 Zhang)

Round 3: Normal service resumes: Wilder backs off consistently and Zhang walks him down with ease. Left hand lands from Zhang. Left hook attempt by Wilder but it was mere nuisance value. Given how much was expected, this has been awful.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-9 Zhang (30-27 Zhang)

Round 2: Wilder attempts a solid right but falls just short. Wilder distressed in the corner after a combination by Zhang. "The Bronze Bomber" is backing off and he's under a lot of pressure. All Zhang right now. Almost no offensive effort from Wilder.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-9 Zhang (20-18 Zhang)

Round 1: Wilder being backed up but very attentive to what's coming at him. Zhang applying the pressure well with his feet. Virtually nothing of consequence landed in the opening three minutes.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-9 Zhang

7:50 p.m. ET/ 0:50 p.m. GMT: It's been a long night and a very entertaining one. Now, it's the main event. Former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder is looking to take down Chinese giant Zhilei Zhang. We switch back to round-by-round coverage. Will we need it?

Daniel Dubois vs. Filip Hrgovic: SN live scorecard

THE NEW INTERIM IBF HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION IS DANIEL DUBOIS. THE OFFICIAL TIME OF THE STOPPAGE IS 0:57 OF ROUND 8. EVEN THOUGH HRGOVIC WAS EDGING SOME ROUNDS, HE WAS TAKING PLENTY OF DAMAGE AND SUCCUMBED.

QUEENSBERRY PROMOTIONS ARE NOW 8-0 AHEAD ON THE 5V5 WITH MATCHROOM AND CANNOT LOSE. THE TEAM ALSO SECURES A $3 MILLION BONUS.

“Full respect to Hrgovic, he’s a good fighter," said Dubois. "To come through that was a learning experience for me. I’m glad I’ve got this IBF belt and on to the next.

“I was a bit cold to start with, but I heard my corner’s advice and we’ll come through anything. Once I felt a few shots, I woke up and I was just on it.

“I’ve heard the next name will be AJ (Anthony Joshua), so bring it on. This is my time.”

Round 8: Another right from Dubois. Hrgovic struggling with the cuts and now pounded to the body. The doctor inspects the eye damage. IT IS OVER!!! It's a TKO win for Dubois because the cuts were caused by punches. The Englishman ratcheted up the aggression over the last two or three rounds and was rewarded. This is the best win of his career and sets him up for a world title fight.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: -

Round 7: Big shots scoring for Dubois. A big right and then a sharp left hook on the inside. Hrgovic not exhibiting good body language. Excellent attack from Dubois again. HUGE RIGHT FROM DUBOIS and Hrgovic looks to be in serious trouble. ANOTHER RIGHT HAND BOMB! And another one. This fight looks like it could be over in the next round.

Dmitry Bivol vs. Malik Zinad: SN live scorecard

AND STILL THE WBA LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD, DMITRY BIVOL. THE RUSSIAN STAR SECURES THE TKO AT 2:06 OF ROUND 6 AND KEEPS HIS UNDISPUTED TITLE CLASH WITH ARTUR BETERBIEV ALIVE.

“I’m happy that I won," said Bivol. "My coach is happy and my team is happy. I had enough time to change my preparation for a different fighter from Beterbiev."

Mid-interview, Turki Alalshikh took the DAZN mic and informed the boxing world that the undisputed title fight would take place on October 12 in conjunction with the opening of Riyadh Season.

Round 6: Left-hand work from both men and Zinad competitive in that posture. BIG RIGHT from Bivol. BIG LEFT HOOK from Bivol. THE CHAMP BREAKS THROUGH WITH A POUND-FOR-POUND ASSAULT AND THE CHALLENGER FALLS APART. The referee jumps to the challenger's rescue.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: -

Round 5: BIG RIGHT HAND lands for Zinad. Bivol guilty of coming forward without much punching. Bivol scores with a nice right. Given the odds against him, Zinad has announced himself in the fight and claimed one round on this card.

Round 4: More of the same. The champion is keeping his opponent honest and controlling pace and distance. Zinad is reticent to let go with anything ambitious for fear of a counter. It's too easy right now. Both fighters bump heads at the end of the round and there's some bad blood.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-9 Bivol (40-35 Bivol)

Round 3: The main attack from Zinad is the jab and the one-two, which Bivol is timing with ease. You're not going to open up a fighter of Bivol's calibre with this approach. Zinad needs a lot more, but the task is probably beyond him. Bivol backing the challenger up and doing what he wants.

Round 2: The action goes long again in round two and the challenger is noticeably more cautious. Left hand scores from Bivol. Blood from the challenger's nose. One-two from Zinad pierces the guard. Solid left hand to the face by Bivol and he's now threading that shot home nicely.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-8 Bivol

6:04 p.m. ET/ 11:04 p.m. GMT: Next up is WBA light heavyweight champ and pound-for-pound star Dmitry Bivol against the unbeaten Malik Zinad. Bivol is looking to remain on course for an undisputed title clash against Artur Beterbiev. Zinad is looking to spring what would be a colossal upset. We'll now be switching to round-by-round. This fight is outside of the 5v5 format.

Hamzah Sheeraz vs. Austin Williams: SN live scorecard

QUEENSBERRY LEADS 6-0 IN THE 5V5.

"We thought we'd break him down in close," said Sheeraz afterwards. "I know everyone says 'use your jab', but, at the same time, I need to break him down. I was throwing the uppercut, but the corner was saying right hook. I turned it over and he was gone.

"If I'm not ready (for world level), I never will be."

Round 11: Solid right hook counter catches Williams. ANOTHER RIGHT LANDS AND A FOLLOW-UP ATTACK DRIVES AMMO ACROSS THE RING. BRUTAL PUNISHMENT! THE REFEREE STOPS THE FIGHT! That call was well-timed. Great performance by Sheeraz, who bossed the fight from start to finish.

Williams is doing well to stay in this. This was almost a round for Ammo, but the big right hand shot took it away from him.

Round 8: Williams is brave and stays busy. He's punching away, but Sheeraz's guard seems almost impenetrable. Two big uppercuts blast through the American's guard. Sheeraz seems to be setting Williams up for a big shot on the inside. Ammo looks very tied now.

SN Unofficial Scorecard: 10-9 Sheeraz (79-73 Sheeraz)

Round 7: Williams comes out and forces out the work. Sheeraz tucks up well and then finds some space to work. As has been the case from the beginning, the jab is like Christmas. Big uppercut from Sheeraz scores. Jab bashes Ammo backwards, doubling and tripling into the target. It's one-sided.
