Kid Galahad claimed a world title at the second attempt as his all-British bout with Jazza Dickens for the vacant IBF featherweight crown was stopped after 11 rounds.
The 31-year-old from Sheffield dominated the Brentwood contest and referee Michael Alexander called a halt to proceedings with Dickens badly cut around the eye.
Galahad's victory was the second of his career over Dickens and earned him a world belt two years after losing to Josh Warrington in Leeds.
