Reports said Agbeko looked doomed when the fight started, as he was hammered by Morrell.

Agbeko made a mistake by retreating to the corner and looking for opportunities to counter Morrell.

A right uppercut from Morell, followed by a short left hook, stunned Agbeko and forced him into a corner, where Morrell unloaded a series of damaging blows.

That prompted the referee to intervene by jumping between them and stopping the bout.
