“I kept it simple and didn’t do anything flamboyant but I felt in control the whole way through the fight and dictated the pace. It was easy really.

“I caught Wyatt coming forward a few times and landed well to the body. He had plenty of marks on him by the end.

“He told me after the fight that I nearly had him out in the second with a couple of body shots, so overall I’m very pleased with how it went.”
