Kiwi heavyweight Joseph Parker has been knocked out by Englishman Joe Joyce in the 11th round of their bout in Manchester this morning.

Parker did his best to match Joyce's aggression in the earlier rounds, but it was to no avail. Joyce was well ahead on all three cards when the KO happened - the first time Parker has been knocked out in a professional fight.

Joyce came out firing in the 11th round, with some agression from Parker in the previous one seeing Joyce unlock his last reserve of energy and floor Parker with a left hook.

Speaking after the bout, Joyce said it took "everything I've got" to win the fight.
