The Olympic silver medallist delivered a earth-shuddering left hook to send American Joe Hanks crashing to the canvas.

After making a slow start, the Brit then began to pick off the 34-year-old with his long, stiff jab.

Despite taking a few clean shots himself, the Brit then caught his opponent with a solid jab which appeared to stun 'Jersey Joe'.

The referee failed to give the standing count, so Joyce moved in for the kill and swiftly finished the job with a blistering left hand.

At 33, Joyce knows he has to move quickly and take dangerous fights in order to fulfil his ambition of becoming world heavyweight champion.
