Pickering powers to title defence
Esham Pickering defended his European super-bantamweight title with a 10th-round stoppage of Spaniard Miguel Mallon on Thursday.

Pickering ended his opponent's 26-fight unbeaten record with a good defensive display before knocking him to the canvas with a big overhand right.

Mallon staggered to his feet but the referee stopped the contest.

"They tried to rob me again by giving him a long count and I knew I had to knock him out to win," said Pickering.
