Thailand's Srisaket Sor Rungvisai knocked out Nicaraguan Roman Gonzalez in their rematch in the USA to retain his WBC super-flyweight title.
Srisaket won their fight in March by majority decision but floored Gonzalez twice on Saturday, finishing the bout with a right hook in round four.
"This fight I knew I was going to knock him out," said the 30-year-old.
