Exciting Wallasey light-welterweight Steve Williams made short work of his latest bout with a second round victory in Liverpool on Saturday night.
The Wirral fighter had too much class for his opponent Charlie King, as a partisan crowd at the Olympia saw Williams overpower the Scot with some crunching body shots and sharp combinations.
It was a fast start for Williams as he pushed King back from the bell, working well behind his jab and catching him with two good right hands midway through the first round.
The Scot struggled to cope with his superior opponent as Williams landed some more measured shots that had the crowd on their feet.
In the second round Williams caught the Scot with a right to the body that rocked him back before unloading a ferocious right that connected with force on King’s chin.
The referee quickly jumped in to stop the fight and give Williams his tenth professional win.
The main fight of the evening saw Anthony Crolla stop local favourite John Watson to win the vacant British lightweight title.
