Anthony Joshua has beaten American Jermaine Franklin on points in their heavyweight fight.

The three judges scored it at 118-111, 117-111, 117-111 for Joshua.

Joshua controlled the contest against the durable American but it was not the explosive early finish many expected.

Tempers flared after the final bell as the two fighters squared up to each other, prompting their teams to enter the ring and be separated by security.

It is Joshua's first win in more than two years, having lost consecutive bouts to Oleksandr Usyk.
