Round-by-Round: Lewis Ritson vs. Jeremias Ponce - 12 June 2021

[handsofstone]

You'd have thought Adam Smith would've mentioned in commentary when Stuart Hall appeared on screen that when he was world champ he defended his title against Ward's brother Martin

[Ruthless-RKO]

Ritson cut his hair and added it to his beard..

[Ruthless-RKO]

Sky just did a montage of their 30 years in boxing. Obviously ushering in a new era after the years exclusive with Matchroom.

If you didn’t enjoy watching that montage you ain’t a boxing fan, regardless of what you think of Sky as a company there’s some great memories there.

Was a great video package.

[handsofstone]

Ward's a classy boxer but he's fought too many of these Valencia type of opponents, i cant give him any more credit for these wins, only when he outboxes world level foes will i give him props

[Ruthless-RKO]

Who’s gonna be Sky’s new MC???

[jameswilson]

Ritson cut his hair and added it to his beard..

I saw the thumbnail for an IfL interview earlier this week and was like ‘they’ve mucked up there, that ain’t Ritson.’

Not sure why but I feel like mores happened than just longer beard and shaved head lit feels like he’s had work done but obviously as a boxer you’d be mad to get cosmetic surgery on your face as your getting punched for a living.

[skanksta]

Yep get on with it Ward.

Ritson should handle this guy with a bit to spare..

[jameswilson]

Who’s gonna be Sky’s new MC???

Will it be

Number 1 - MC DT
Number 2 - MT Pants.
Number 3 - WC Loiterer.
Number 4 - DJ happen to see the most beautiful girl in the World.
Or
Number 5 - MCFETB and another vowel please Carol.

Anyone else getting a bit of Straffon Tennyson feeling watching this guy during the announcements?

[Ruthless-RKO]

[Ruthless-RKO]

[jameswilson]

Mr Ruthless, are you old enough to remember the guy that announced in the 80's in the states, who pronounced the surname twice..... twice.

I know it was a thing back then. I wasn’t alive in the 80’s

[Ruthless-RKO]

Fück me!!!

agree, when youre 30-0 you shoulda moved beyond that. too many irrelevant opponents on his record

[jameswilson]

Jesus Ritson can’t seem to take it to the body at all.

Although looking at him in the corner it’s like he may have been faking it. I’m not sure he was faking it personally.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Ritson keeps trapping his arm

[jameswilson]

Is it just me or does Ritson have some bruising both sides on his ribs.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Ritson will need some helpful refereeing tonight.

He needs Tel

[Ruthless-RKO]

Is it just me or does Ritson have some bruising both sides on his ribs.

Yes. He has his defence low

[gb]

Ritson seems about 15 years older than a year ago!

[skanksta]

This is good !

Ponce doesn't look like punching himself out - Ritson is trouble.
Scores ?
