Amir Khan was pushed all the way by Hungary's Laszlo Komjathi before keeping his 100% professional record with a six-round points win in Belfast. It was the first time Khan had gone beyond four rounds as a professional.
He suffered a scare in the fourth round when he was twice caught with straight right hands, but the Olympic silver medallist still earned a 60-55 verdict.
Komjathi gave the Bolton teenager his toughest test yet, but the result at the King's Hall was rarely in doubt.

Afterwards, Khan told ITV Sport that the fight had been an education.
"I'm getting the hang of being a pro, I needed a fight like this," he said.
"I learnt a lot in that fight, it's all good experience - I know what six rounds feel like, so I can work on that.
"Give Komjathi a lot of credit, he was a tough fighter who kept coming forward, but I showed I can take his shots.

"I was very pleased to do six rounds as it shows all the work we're doing in the gym is working."
Promoter Frank Warren said he was happy with the outcome but could still see some room for improvement in Khan.
"He made a couple of mistakes which I don't like," he said.
"He thinks it's entertainment, but I don't like it when he gets caught."
Warren also confirmed Khan's next fight would be on 8 July.
