David Haye defeated Dereck Chisora with a fifth-round knockout in an enthralling contest at Upton Park.
Haye floored Chisora with a brutal left-hook, right-hand combination in the fifth.
Chisora just managed to climb to his feet but after three right hooks and two lefts from Haye the fight was over.
Earlier, Chisora had controversially rocked British rival Haye with a punch after the bell had sounded in the third round.
"As expected, Haye was too quick and too slick for the ponderous Chisora, although the manner of the victory will have surprised some.
Chisora has sturdy whiskers and it took a magnificent barrage from Haye to put him away. Vitali, were you watching?
But perhaps more important were the hugs and smiles after the dust had settled - this wasn't, as some had predicted, the end of boxing as we know it but just an entertaining fight."
The victory will now open up the possibility of a fight against WBC world heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko - who Haye has been calling out for over two years.
