Welsh boxer Lee Selby has beaten Argentine Jonathan Victor Barros with a unanimous verdict in Wembley to retain his IBF title.

The 30-year-old won the fight, his third successful title defence, four days after the sudden death of his mother Frankie.

In an uneventful bout, Selby dropped Barros to the canvas in the 12th round.

Barros inflicted a cut above Selby’s right eye in the early rounds, but did little to trouble his opponent.

With former WBA champion Carl Frampton ringside, the Northern Irishman remains a possible match up for Selby’s fourth title defence.
