Okolie wins and other undercard results

Lawrence Okolie (17-0, 14 KOs) knocked out Dilan Prasovic (15-1, 12 KOs) on boxing night in London in the third round. The Brit defended his WBO world cruiserweight title. The Briton controlled the fight from the first bell. Prasovic was on the floor already in the second round, and the fight ended in the third after a punch to the body.

On the same night, former super middleweight champion Callum Smith (28-1, 20 KOs) made a successful debut at light heavyweight. The 31-year-old Briton knocked out Lenin Castillo (21-4-1, 16 KOs) very hard in the second round. Castillo was on the floor in a deep knockout, his legs were shaking terribly and he was out for several minutes. Castillo was carried out on a stretcher. Candidate for one of the best knockouts of the year.

Lightweight Campbell Hatton (4-0, 0 KOs), son of Ricky Hatton, won a very controversial decision against Sonny Martinez (2-5). British referee Marcus McDonnell somehow counted it 58-57 in Hatton's favor.

"Albanian King" Florian Marku (9-0-1, 6 KOs) ousted IBF welterweight champion Maxim Prodan (19-1-1, 15 KOs) by split decision of the judges after ten rounds. Judges' scorecards: 97-93, 96-94 to Marku and 99-91 to Prodan. The latter score is most likely an error. Marku confidently won this fight.

Undefeated middleweight Christopher Owsley (13-0, 9 KOs) defeated Khasan Baysangurov (21-2, 11 KOs) by majority decision in a bout for the WBA intercontinental world title. The score of the judges' notes: 95-95, 97-94, 97-94.

In the first bout of the evening, Daniel Lapin (5-0) defeated Pavel Martynyuk (4-8, 4 KOs) on points in six rounds.
