Liam Williams TKO1 Andrew Robinson... British middleweight champion Liam Williams retained his title by stopping Andrew Robinson in round one. The two men met at the BT Sport Studio in London, with Williams (23-2-1, 18 KOs) needing just 88 seconds to secure the first-round win over Robinson (24-5-1, 7 KOs). An accidental clash of heads led to cuts for both men in the opening stages, and with Williams concerned about his cut, he stepped on the gas and unleashed an onslaught on Robinson. The challenger was unable to cope with the pressure, forcing the referee to wave the contest off, and moving Williams closer to a shot at a world title. Williams said: “I wanted it to go further to get a few rounds and get my range, but when we clashed heads and I saw the blood dripping from my head, I thought I need to end this now, so I got him out of there. I’m mandatory challenger for the WBO middleweight title to fight Demetrius Andrade, so give me the date and the place and I’ll be there. I’m learning so much all the time, and it will only help when the time does come. I’d like the fight to be before Christmas. Realistically is that going to happen? Probably not. So I’ll just keep ticking over in the gym and I’ll be ready when it comes.” source: mtk press release
