Monaghan's McKenna brothers maintained their respective unbeaten records in emphatic fashion in Coventry.

Aaron McKenna is now 13-0 as a pro after comfortably seeing off Gabor Gobics - a late replacement for Ghana's Edem Bika who had he had been due to a contest a title fight with - in a bout that went the distance, although he had the Hungarian on the canvas during the first round.

It was the middleweight's first fight since leaving Golden Boy and joining his brother at Hennessy promotions and provides a springboard for his attempt to harness the WBC youth world title on 10 December.

Stevie McKenna, meanwhile, enjoyed a first-round stoppage in his welterweight fight against Richmond Djarbeng on the same fight card to go 10-0, with victory attained within 45 seconds.
