Irish Olympic hero Darren Sutherland continued his 100% record as a professional last night after enjoying a fourth-round knockout victory against Ukrainian Gennadiy Rasalev in London.

Referee Mark Green stopped the middleweight fight after a bad cut above Rasalev's left eye began to open up.

Bronze medallist Sutherland did not escape unscathed however, as a cut on his right cheek now puts his planned fight in 11 days' time in jeopardy.
