After a late addition to the Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte undercard, Ekow Essuman beat Darren Tetley to retain his British and Commonwealth titles.
The Nottingham based fighter was rarely troubled by the resilient Tetley as the cagey contest played out in the building anticipation of the world heavyweight championship clash between Whyte and Fury.
It could perhaps be said that the two fighters were in awe of the stage with most of the 94,000 capacity crowd seated for the main event at the time of the fight.
