Mexico's Erik Morales retained his WBC featherweight title in front of his adoring fans in Mexico City on Saturday.

Morales beat Eddie Croft of the United States with a third-round technical knockout.

Morales dominated the fight from the start, flooring his opponent three times before the referee stepped in to stop it.

It was the 42nd victory of Morales' career and he has just one defeat to his name.
