Tommy makes it seven wins

Appearing on action-packed bill at the Doncaster Dome, Coward looked in imperious form as he dismantled and dispatched the Morris inside five painfully one-sided rounds.

Coward, making just his seventh outing as professional, looked poised for his toughest night’s work, as he faced an opponent who had previously defeated unbeaten local prospect Jerome Wilson and also British title challenger Curtis Woodhouse.

The Swinton fighter made light work of the task at hand as he battered Morris into submission in a highly impressive display.

He said: “I think the referee could have stopped it sooner, he took a lot of punishment.

The right hook to the body worked well, even if it caught him on the guard it was still digging in and taking effect."
