Rhys McKee showed courage and punch power as he won the Cage Warriors welterweight title in sensational fashion on Saturday night.
The Ballymena man stopped Justin Burlinson in the third round with a clinical one-two finish in front of thousands of raucous fans at the SSE Arena.
McKee's world title dream was under serious threat in the opening two rounds as Burlinson's ground game threatened to ruin the 26-year-old's night.
