WATCH - First punch knockout
There was a time when world title fights in boxing were scheduled for 15 rounds. Title fights were reduced to 12 rounds in the 1980s in a bid to make the sport safer.
Our own Brian Mitchell first won the WBA junior lightweight title in a fight scheduled for 15 rounds back in 1986.
Mitchell needed just nine rounds to take the title from the late Alfredo Layne at Sun City.
Mitchell did not possess a hugely powerful punch, but was a busy fighter who tended to wear down his opponent in the course of the fight.
Mitchell was well suited to the 15-round distance, but later also proved effective after the WBA reduced title fights to 12 rounds.
Today we look at a fight that lasted only a few seconds as James Thunder lived up to his name with a thunderous punch.
