ED MATTHEWS “channelled prime Conor McGregor” in knocking out Swarmz just seconds into their bout.
The duo were doing battle on the undercard of KSI’s fight with Tommy Fury.
Swarmz, 27, had initially been supposed to fight Ryan Taylor.
But the match-up was altered yesterday after Taylor missed weight by “almost 11kg”.
Matthews agreed to step in at the last minute, and made short work of the bout.
Just seconds into the fight, Matthews backed Swarmz up to the ropes.
