Kell Brook's domination over Amir Khan has been reflected in the punch stats after he out-landed his opponent by three-to-one during his stoppage victory.
The Sheffield star put in a powerful display to back up his pre-fight prediction and stop bitter rival Amir Khan in the sixth round.
Khan started brightly but was unable to contain the aggressive Brook and ultimately succumbed to a brutal barrage of punches in Manchester.
Brook landed a remarkable 64 power punches at a connect rate of 64 per cent which held him the key to a dominant victory, with Khan able to just land 19 at a connect rate of 28 per cent with many coming in the early rounds.
In addition to holding the advantage in the power department, Brook was able to land more punches in the fight with 79 of his punches hitting the target at a success rate of 35.3 per cent overall.
Khan landed just 34 of his 151 punches thrown but managed to match Brook in the jab department with the pair both landing 15 in the fight.
Brook was able to let his hands go a great deal in the two rounds prior to the stoppage, with a huge barrage of shots handing the referee no option but to halt the contest.
The 35-year-old was delighted with his display and now admitted he will sit down with his family to make a decision on his future.
"I’ve sacrificed so much time to train for this fight, they won’t remember all of my fights they’ll just remember me fighting Amir Khan," he said.
"No disrespect to Amir, but it felt so easy in there, I’m happy the chapter has closed on Amir Khan now.
"This is the icing on the cake in my career, I can feel at peace knowing I’ve beaten him. Do I want to carry on? I’m going to sit down with my family and consider my future in the sport.

"I would’ve wanted more of a clinical knockout, like how Canelo did. But he’s been fantastic for the sport, he’s a two-time world champion for a reason and I’m just happy that we got to fight."
Khan now faces an uncertain future in boxing after suffering a devastating defeat in the grudge match that could signal the end of his career.
His legacy will not be tarnished with defeat but it remains to be seen if he will take to the ring again after a damaging loss.
