Cork boxer Callum Walsh improved his professional record to 16-0 with a unanimous points victory over Carlos Ocampo in Las Vegas on Friday night.
The 24-year-old middleweight's bout had top billing on UFC chief Dana White's first Zuffa Boxing event and the Irish man proved too good at the Meta Apex for his more experienced opponent from Mexico.
Walsh did have to recover from a sixth-round knockdown but won the 10-round contest on all three judges' cards, 98-90, 98-90 and 97-91.
He said: "I'm never happy with the performance unless I knock them out, but getting to 10 rounds again is good.
"The opponents are getting tougher and tougher.
"It was a good experience and a good night, and all around I am happy to get the win."
