Olympic gold medallist Anthony Joshua fought in Greenwich at The O2 on Saturday, making the first defence of his IBF World Heavyweight title against the previously unbeaten American Dominic Breazeale.

What’s On was ringside and here’s five things we learnt…

Bigger and better things ahead for Joshua

He may be a world champion already, but at 26 and with just 17 fights under his belt Joshua is still considered by many to be young and inexperienced.

But against another undefeated fighter he dominated from the opening bell before decisively finishing things in the seventh round.

With 17 knock-outs now to his name in his 17 fights, Joshua will start to look for the bigger bouts. WBC champion Deontay Wilder (who has won 35 of his 36 fights by knock-out) is already calling him out on Twitter.

Tyson Fury and David Hay are possible future fights too.

Before that though, Joshua is likely to defend his title again in November, probably against mandatory challenger Joseph Parker from New Zealand.

Breazeale’s a tough nut to crack

He may have lost the fight, and with it his undefeated record, but Dominic Breazeale impressed onlookers with his resilience.
There was no doubt the tall Californian was not in the same class as the champion but he is only the second man to take Joshua into the seventh round and he shrugged off some weighty blows.

One more shot for Groves?

George Groves and Martin Murray’s super-middleweight clash was undoubtedly the fight of the night.

Between them, the pair have had seven failed world title bids and it was probably the end of the big-time for whoever lost. And both men knew it.

Groves won out on the night – and could see himself back in the title mix - but neither he nor Murray could produce a decisive knock out. It wasn’t for lack of trying, however. In the final round Groves swung so hard he nearly flew off his feet himself.

Watch out for Eubank

Chris Eubank Jnr’s impressive progress continued on Saturday with a decisive fourth round knock-out of the previously unbeaten Welshman Tom Doran to retain his British Middleweight title.

Though he wasn’t quite as slick as he thought he was, Eubank Jnr was still mighty good and danced, jinked and swaggered his way to a stylish win. It’s a step up to the world stage for him with a touted fight against WBA (super), WBC, IBF and IBO World champion Gennady Golovkin.

Ding Dong, here comes (not-so) Big Benn

What do you know, Chris Eubank Snr’s long-time rival Nigel Benn also has a boxing son. Conor Benn smashed his opponent Lukas Radic in a big first round KO. Radic took a while to get up and Benn is clearly one to watch.
