Tony Yoka got an early victory.

Yesterday, September 7, in Swindon, UK, he faced local boxer Lama Griggs (3-8-1), an average but tough boxer who had not lost early before. In a fight scheduled for six rounds, Yoka focused on body punches at first, and was able to shake his opponent with a right hook in the second three minutes. When Yoka landed another accurate right uppercut, the referee decided to intervene, saving Griggs from a hard knockout.
