Shakhram Giyasov knocks out Julio Laguna at Wembley

He kicked off the supporting cast of Anthony Joshua’s WBA Super, IBF, IBO and WBO world heavyweight title defence against Russia’s once-defeated former WBC Silver champion Alexander Povetkin.

After 38 seconds of the fourth round, the 25-year-old took out Julio Laguna of Nicaragua. Laguna, in defeat, lost his unbeaten record, having previously held a ledger of 14-0 with 10 early finishes.
