Gennady Golovkin has defended his middleweight boxing titles in devastating fashion, stopping Dominic Wade in the second round for his 22nd straight knockout victory.
Kazakhstan's Golovkin (35-0, 32 KOs) knocked down American Wade three times, hammering the previously undefeated challenger before ending the bout on a right to the chin with 23 seconds left in the second.
"This is a big present for my fans," Golovkin said.
"I'm here now and I'm here to stay. I'm not going anywhere."
A sold-out Forum roared for their adopted champion in his 16th consecutive title defence.

Golovkin and Gonzalez combined to pack the famous arena south of downtown Los Angeles for the second time in a year, attracting 16,353 savvy boxing fans who understand the sublime brutality of the Kazakh 160-pound (73kg) champion.
Wearing blue-and-gold trunks to celebrate the Los Angeles Rams' NFL return to a future stadium across the street from the Forum, Golovkin opened his bout in his new hometown with the crowd repeatedly chanting "Triple G!"
And Golovkin was relentless from the bell, knocking down Wade (18-1) with a punch to the ear in the final seconds of the opening round.
Golovkin was an enormous favourite to beat Wade, his mandatory challenger for one of his WBA, IBO, IBF WBC (interim) middleweight belts.
Although Golovkin has dominated the middleweight division, he still covets a superfight with Canelo Alvarez, who holds the WBC version of the 160-pound belt after beating Miguel Cotto at a 155-pound catch weight last year.
