Monaghan brothers Aaron and Stevie McKenna both extended their unbeaten professional records with impressive wins at Crystal Palace tonight.

Aaron (22) claimed the WBC Youth World middleweight belt with a unanimous decision over Carlos Gallego, his 14th victory in a row, on the undercard of the Isaac Chamberlain- Dilan Prasovic IBF International cruiserweight title fight.

The three judges each gave all eight rounds to 'The Silencer' (80-72) for a dominant win.

Older brother Stevie (24) knocked out Englishman Jack Ewbank (4-5) in just 70 seconds, his second first-round KO in less than a month.

Stevie, who moves to 11-0 professionally, was intended to fight Aziz Quartey for the IBF Youth World welterweight title but the Ghanaian failed to make weight.
