Britain's Anthony Joshua won the IBF world heavyweight title when he stopped American southpaw Charles Martin in the second round with a stunning display at the 02 arena on Saturday.
Joshua became the first boxer in history to hold the Olympic super-heavyweight crown and a version of the world heavyweight title simultaneously with his impressive triumph.
The Briton handed champion Martin his first defeat to claim the title in the 16th fight of his professional career, knocking him down twice in the second round with magnificent right hands.
