It took just 30 seconds for Smith to knock Fielding down for the first time when he connected with a series of jabs before landing a strong right hand.

The second knockdown came when a left hook struck the top of Fielding's head, before moments later, he sent his opponent down to the canvas for a third time with another barrage of punches.

Fielding attempted to carry on but the referee called time on the fight with 15 seconds remaining of the opening session.

Smith has now stretched his record to 18 successive wins, with Fielding suffering his first defeat in 22 outings.
