Zelfa Barrett dug deep to produce a clinical eighth round KO against Ireland's Eric Donovan, earning him the vacant IBF Intercontinental Super-Featherweight Title.
Manchester's Barrett exploded into life following a sluggish start to inflict a huge one-punch knockout on 'Lilywhite Lightning' on his Matchroom Boxing debut.
'Brown Flash' had been troubled by a body shot in the fifth, but then staggered Donovan with a left hook in the sixth. He dropped Donovan with a sweetly timed left hook in the seventh, and clubbed the Irishman to the canvas again in the closing seconds of the round.
Donovan's brave resistance was finally ended in the eighth as he toppled backwards following another big left hook from Barrett.
