It was no surprise when Ukraine's WBC Heavyweight Champion Vitali 'Dr. Ironfist' Klitschko defended his title in Sunday's fight against Albert 'Dragon' Sosnowski of Poland.

38-year-old Klitschko (40-2, 38 KOs), who had a significant size advantage over his opponent, won by a technical knock-out in the 10th round.

The fight was called off as Sosnowski (45-3-1, 27 KOs), who is 13 cm shorter and 23 lbs lighter than his opponent, crumpled to the canvas after a thunderous overhand right hand.

Sunday's event at the Veltins Arena was the fourth defense of the WBC title Klitschko won in October 2008.

Klitschko, who returned to professional boxing in 2007, announced in February his plans to end his boxing career this year.
