Anthony Joshua added the WBO heavyweight title to his WBA and IBF belts on Saturday, comfortably out-pointing Joseph Parker in Cardiff to inflict a first defeat on the New Zealander.

The much-hyped fight did not deliver a huge amount of entertainment, with the unbeaten Joshua content to control the contest behind his jab for the most part.
