Scotland’s super-middleweight Kenny Anderson the 2006 Commonwealth Games Gold medal winner looked impressive with a 3rd round stoppage win over Paul Morby as he looks to gate crash the domestic scene.

Morby was caught by a left hook at the end of the 2nd round, but manage to get to his feet has he used the ropes to for help.

Anderson was not going to let his man off the hook and came out for the next round, hunted Morby anbd unleashed a barrage of heavy blows that saw referee Michael Alexander jump in to save Morby from anymore punishment at 1:06 of the round.

It was the Scotsman’s third straight victory since his only professional loss to George Groves in November last year and he will be hoping for a title shot against him or Paul Smith, whoever wins that up coming battle, or he may well seak a crack at James DeGale should he win the European belt this month.
