Hosea Burton continued his unbeaten run with a routine stoppage victory.

The British light-heavyweight champion, who was supposed to defend his crown against Tony Dodson before the proposed challenger snapped his achilles, took less than two full rounds to move to 17-0 (8 KOs).

Burton, 27, dominated Hungary’s Jozsef Kormany in their scheduled six-round outing on at Everton Football Club’s Goodison Park, as part of the undercard to Tony Bellew’s vacant WBC cruiserweight world title clash against Ilunga Makabu.

Manchester-trained Burton was last in action only 22 days ago on the undercard of Anthony Crolla’s world title defence against Ismael Barroso and his sharpness showed as he was on top from start to finish.

In defeat, Kormany drops to 17-24.

Elsewhere, Craig Glover shone on his debut as he stopped vastly overmatched Yorkshireman Darren Snow after 54 seconds of third round, while there were victories for Steve Brogan and Ged Carroll, who moved to 2-0 after his second fight in six weeks.

And Paul Smith won the second fight of his comeback since an 11-month hiatus, outpointing the game Pole Bartlomiej by 59 points to 55 over six rounds.

‘Real Gone Kid’ stopped Bronislav Kubin inside three rounds in Manchester 22 days ago and was handed a spot on this bill following that victory.
