Maccarinelli beaten in comeback fight

Commonwealth light-heavyweight champion Ovill McKenzie has retained his title with a second-round stoppage of Enzo Maccarinelli.

Maccarinelli was making his return to the ring after a six-month drugs ban but he was no match for McKenzie in their bout in Liverpool.

The 32-year-old quickly demonstrated his class against the Welshman and referee Ian John-Lewis had no option but to bring the fight to a halt in the second round.

The defeat is Maccarinelli's sixth of a 41-fight career.
