Anthony Ogogo got Great Britain's boxing team off to a perfect start with a convincing 13-6 win over Junior Castillo of the Dominican Republic.
The 23-year-old middleweight made a cagey start to his opening contest at ExCel before pulling away in the final two rounds.
Ogogo's build-up was hampered by his mother being taken seriously ill six weeks ago, while his eldest sister Leanne went into labour on Saturday with her second child.
However, the Lowestoft fighter said his mother's fight inspired him to produce a strong and focused performance.
