The bout went as many expected, with the now 9-0 Fournier stopping the 0-1 artist in the second round following two brual knockdowns.

And in his post-fight interview, Fournier, 38, reiterated his desire to throw down with the A-side of Triller Fight Club's second event.

He said: "Everyone knows I'd love Jake Paul next.

"I love what Triller are doing here. I want to be part of every Fight Club.

"They're really disrupting the industry. Thank you, Triller. I appreciate you for having me on."

Reykon put up no resistance against multi-millionaire Fournier and failed to land a single punch on the Londoner.

But Fournier was quick to give his opponent praise after the fight, saying: "I want to say thank you to Reykon and his team and to Colombia.

 

"The guy is a warrior man. He clearly hasn't had much boxing experience and he stepped in the ring with me.

"And if you look at my record, I knock everyone out. So the fact he even got up after that first knockout, he's a real legend and he should be proud of himself.

"And the Colombian people should be proud of him, man. He has a lot of balls.

"Respect to Reykon and respect to Colombia."
