Savannah Marshall declared herself “really happy” after clocking up her fifth win in double quick time in Manchester.
The unbeaten Hartlepool super-middleweight took apart Klaudia Vigh in just three minutes at the Victoria Warehouse.
Marshall put the 28-year-old down twice in the opening two rounds and when she hammered further unanswered shots into her opponent, referee Andy Brook wisely intervened at one minute, five seconds of the second round before the Hungarian got hurt.
This one-sided success follows just two weekends after Marshall clinched her first professional title, the WBA Inter-continental super-middleweight belt in Sofia, where she outclassed tough Argentinian Yanina Orozco.
Given she went the distance in Bulgaria, you could not begrudge her an easy night on the MTK Global event in Manchester.
“I’m really happy,” the 27-year-old told Sophia De Stefano in her post-fight interview on IFL TV.
“I only boxed two weeks ago and I thought I probably made hard work of that, so I’ve been working on staying a bit calmer.

“Hopefully, if all goes well in five or six fights time I’ll be boxing for a world title.”
Vigh cut a solid figure, but once timekeeper Phil Morris rang the first bell, this looked something of a miss-match.
Marshall did not rush, landing to the body early and connecting to the head with her left.
Vigh was down midway through the round though was up at five and got through the rest of the first two minutes.
The girl from Budapest made a spirited start to the second but was rocked by a right upper cut and sharp left and when the ex-World and Commonwealth amateur champion thumped her with a right to the head, down she tumbled.
Again, Vigh was up by the count of five, but when the Peter Fury-trained star returned to the attack, Mr Brook waved it off for her third stoppage triumph.
