Pepsi Coliseum, Quebec City, Canada -  Montreal-based Russian Artur Beterbiev crushed former title-challenger Gabriel Campillo, knocking out the Spaniard at 2:22 of the fourth round with a massive right-left combination in a light heavyweight bout.

It was the eighth knockout in as many pro bouts for Beterbiev, who enjoyed a standout amateur career. Campillo fell to 25-7-1, with 12 knockouts, dominated the whole way by Beterbiev who proclaimed himself ready for a professional world title shot. 

"When I watched footage of Campillo I noticed that he did a lot of running. I wasn't trying to be the aggressor. I just stuck to my game plan. I'm very happy to be on the big stage on CBS at such an early point in my professional career. This all came together very quickly and I hope to be back soon," Beterbiev said.

"We're planning to fight again in May and I'll leave whoever my opponent will be in God's hands."
