Lauren Price secured gold for Great Britain in the women's middleweight category after comprehensively outboxing China's Li Qian at the Kokugikan Arena.
Price had been stretched to her limit last time out against Nouchka Fontijn, edging out her Dutch rival on a wafer-thin split decision, but there was no such drama in Sunday's final.
The 27-year-old from Wales was able to use her superior lateral movement to confound Li, getting in and out of range at will to control the tempo throughout to claim a unanimous points win.
