Rising star Jason Quigley extended his professional record to 3-0 with an impressive first-round knockout of super middleweight opponent Greg McCoy in Plymouth, Massachusetts, last night.

The Donegal man dominated his American opponent (3-4-1) from the opening bell before putting him down with a left hook-right cross 2:39 into the round.

The 23-year-old, who is signed to Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, has now won all his fights inside the distance following TKO wins in the summer over Howard Reece and Fernando Najera.

Quigley won European gold and world silver medals as an amateur before turning pro in April this year.
