Two professional boxers from Morecambe earned eye-catching wins on a bill at Blackpool Winter Gardens.
Alex MacMillan scored a first round stoppage victory on his pro debut, while Troy Gallagher stopped Lukasz Kucharski to extend his unbeaten career on Saturday.
MacMillan, brother of former British title challenger Reece MacMillan, defeated Liverpool's Connor Goulding and looked impressive in his first start.
The former amateur standout landed a flurry of hard shots leaving a dazed Goulding on the seat of his pants in the corner, and the referee waved the action off immediately.

Meanwhile Gallagher moved his pro record to five wins out of five with his first inside-the-distance win.
Kucharski from Poland, with a record of 1-1 going into the fight, came out bobbing and weaving, aggressively throwing hooks in round 1.
Troy boxed behind his jab, evaded most of his opponent's attacks, and scored with a nice body shot and some right hands around the guard.
Then shortly into Round 2, after Troy got through with a stiff left jab, he landed a perfect left hook to Kucharski's jaw, wobbling him onto the ropes.
After a follow up right dropped the badly hurt Pole to his knees, the referee was already waving it off with Kucharski in no fit state to continue.
