Danny Green stunned Roy Jones Jnr in their International Boxing Organisation cruiserweight title fight in Sydney, stopping the American in the first round at Acer Arena.
Green put down the eight-time world champion with a well-timed right-hand punch midway through the opening round, and he then pummelled the American legend with a flurry of blows against the ropes.
English referee Howard Foster called a halt to the fight at 2min 02sec into the contest.
Boxing legend Jones, 40, had been stopped only twice previously in his 20-year career, by Antonio Tarver and Glen Johnson, both in 2004.
Green sounded almost apologetic after humbling one of the greatest fighters in history.
"He's one of the greatest fighters of all time and the opportunity to fight him in Australia, thanks Roy Jones Jnr," Green told the crowd.
"I almost feel bad doing that.
"That almost most hurt me to do that to someone whom I aspire to look up to as a professional fighter inside and outside the ring.
"He's a bloody legend."
Jones offered no excuses for the defeat that could signal the end of his career.
"We don't make excuses, it was a great performance by Danny," Jones told the crowd.
Green, 36, was making his first defence of the title he won with a fifth-round TKO against Julio Cesar Dominguez, from Argentina, in Biloxi, Mississippi, in August.
Jones was bidding to become the first boxer to win world titles at all five divisions between middleweight and heavyweight, but he was overwhelmed by Green's first-round onslaught.
Green has now won 28 of his 31 fights since 2001 - 25 by knockout.
Jones's record now stands at 54 wins (40 by knockout) against six losses in 60 bouts.
