Britain’s 122lb super-bantamweight division is presently awash with world class talent.

Heavyweight Hughie Fury (9-0, 6 KOs) had his fight cut short, but gained first round TKO victory, after Shane McPhilbin (8-8-1, 5 KOs) claimed a shoulder injury and said he couldn't continue after the first round.
