Mexican Jovanni Straffon scored a shocking 1st round stoppage of Belfast lightweight James Tennyson to win the vacant IBO World Lightweight Title on the Chisora vs Parker undercard at the Manchester Arena.

Both landed with heavy, hurtful-looking hooks but it was Tennyson that folded from the big shots.
