French Superheavyweight favourite Tony Yoka scored a decisive points victory over US Virgin Islander Laurent Clayton Jr. Clayton who is the stepson of former world middleweight champion Julian Jackson had previously scored an upset over experienced German Erik Pfeifer and looked competent in doing so.. Yoka however was a different challenge, a mobile boxer puncher who barely allowed Clayton to land cleanly.. Yoka has solid company in his weight category and won't find everyone as agreeable as Clayton jr, with Joe Joyce making his first appearance tonight against Cape Verde's Davilson Morais and Cuba's Lenier Pero already through to the quarters.. Yoka will now face Hussein Iashaish of Jordan to earn his place in on the podium..
