Corcoran easily extends unbeaten record
Unbeaten welterweight prospect Gary Corcoran showed his potential with an easy first-round stoppage of Ross Payne at Bethnal Green’s York Hall.
The 21-year-old landed a number of eye-catching shots before his opponent was forced down onto one knee.
Payne was allowed to continue after taking a count, but a follow-up barrage of punches from Corcoran prompted the referee to step in and end the contest.
Corcoran, from Wembley, now has a record of 5-0 with two of his victories coming inside the distance.
