Swindon, UK - Tony Yoka (13-3, 11 KOs) secured a second-round TKO victory over Lamah Griggs (3-8-1) in a mismatch that highlights Yoka’s steady but cautious rebuild following recent setbacks. Yoka’s dominant performance came as no surprise, given Griggs’ modest record and lack of knockout power.
The bout, held at MECA, Regent Circus, was scheduled for six rounds, but Yoka wasted little time. In the second round, he unleashed a series of powerful hooks to the body and head, pinning Griggs against the ropes. Unable to defend himself, Griggs was spared further damage as the referee stepped in to stop the fight.
This marks Yoka’s second consecutive win as he seeks to regain momentum after losses earlier in his career. Despite facing an overmatched opponent, Yoka's focus on rebuilding his confidence and technique remains evident as he eyes tougher competition in the near future.
