O\u2019Donnell touched the canvas in the sixth following a barrage of punches, and shortly after beating the count the referee waved off the bout after another sustained attack from Baraou. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so happy to have defended my title in my first fight in England,\u201d said Baraou. \u201cI had a lot of fun in the ring and it was fantastic to fight in a venue with such a great atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>Denis Radovan, fighting outside of Germany for the first time in his professional career, started quickly and demonstrated his power when he dropped Blackledge with a thudding right hand in the third round.<\/p>\n<p>Following another dominant round from Radovan in the fourth, Blackledge\u2019s team had seen enough and retired him on his stool.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy team and I are delighted, especially as I have only been with my new coach Grant Smith for five weeks!\u201d said Radovan. \u201cAt the beginning I was a bit tense, but I quickly found my way in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce I got to where I wanted to be, I knew I could determine the outcome of the fight and I wanted to give the fans some excitement. Boxing in England is just another world, it was terrific!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Baraou and Radovan\u2019s promoter Nisse Sauerland was effusive in his praise for the pair following their victories.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth guys fought sensational fights and deservedly won,\u201d said Sauerland. \u201cFor their development, it\u2019s very good that they produced two great performances at this big event and they attracted plenty of attention tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shirley Jones  (The Jones Girls &amp;
