The 30-year-old said: “I came here to have fun. I just want to thank Bob Arum, Top Rank, ESPN.

“Bob will tell you, September 21st or October 5th, and next year we’ll make Wilder give me that green belt.

“It was amazing, I hope America enjoyed it. I’m not one of those who take myself too seriously.

“September 21st or October 5th, I think in New York, then I’ll hunt down Wilder.

“I won’t look past today, but Bob and Frank will get deals done, then we’ll fight Wilder early next year.”

The 6ft 9in Brit stylist eased into the bout in his usual orthodox stance and switched to southpaw for the second.

Brilliant defensive skills won the crowd over before a razor-sharp combination, topped off by a right-handed jab, sent the 25-year-old to the canvas.

And dad John, a former fighter watching the action in the BT Sport studio, said he should target a top-five opponent for his next tune-up battle.

He said: “Let’s get somebody ranked in the top five next time, then Wilder next year, for the best prize in the world.”
