Final knockout at minute 1:20.

Right from the start, he put the pressure on his 12-year-old compatriot and sent him into the ring dust after just over half a minute. Farmer got up and Schofield followed suit. The next hard right-left combination sent Farmer straight back to the mat. This time Farmer needed a bit of time and was quite wobbly on his feet. Schofield immediately took advantage of this and scored with a brutal left to the head – the end of a very one-sided fight. Floyd Schofield now has 19 wins from 19 professional fights (13 by knockout) and, at just 22 years of age, has a chance of a world championship fight in the near future. With Raymond Muratalla (IBF), Gervonta Davis (WBA) and Shakur Stevenson (WBC), there are plenty of options for the US boxer.
