Joe Elfidh lost his unbeaten record on Friday night after suffering a fifth round knock out.

Elfidh, boasting seven wins from seven, met Keiran Farrell - also boasting a perfect record - in what was a Central Area lightweight title fight and English title eliminator.

But former Nottingham resident Elfidh (pictured), who now lives in Medway and trains at the Invicta Gym in Queensborough, was downed by a left hook to the body.

Referee Steve Gray ended the fight as Elfidh was unable to get back to his feet inside the ten count.

It had been a gutsy effort from Elfidh, who had started the bout in Bolton looking confident and strong.

Farrell had only just avoided a flurry from Elfidh in the fifth before delivering the winning blow.
