This is baldism plain and simple.
As I'm lacking hair myself I'm hardly in a position to mock another blokes baldness.

It's not just Ritson's hair (or lack of) but also the unflattering beard and somewhat prematurely aged features.

TBH I do think bald people have aged prematurely and their body as well

All the shots from Davies had the kitchen sink behind them.
He is in the Oxford Dictionary under 'telegraph' :lol:
Even aguy like Ritson, who's defence only consists of ducking or taking a step straight backwards was making him miss 8/10 mighty swings

Bob Marley pulled a doobie out of his beard live in an interview on NZ TV back in 1979, he didn't spark it up, but it made newspaper headlines the next day :lol:

I don't have much hair (and I Grade 0 what little I have) and my beard is 90% white, I must look ancient.

He was a percieved ticket seller though wasn't he? Surely all those that were out for the nights of yesteryear still follow him on the socials and know when he is next fighting and they're up for another night out to cheer on their lad?

Or was it always the Sky pulling power. The locals see the ads on the TV and get tickets, rather than actually being invested in their local boy?

I can't find any confirmation on what it was- if anything. I put it down to commentators waffle, unless proven otherwise

Heck, most of us didn't know much about this fight. It was only two days prior I managed to find a way of watching it.
Sky is still the boss on promoting UK fights. DAZN have learned that one, as have Fite tonight. With proper promotion that hall should have been at least 80% full instead of 15% from what I saw.

you still gotta get the hype going even to engage the people who latch on to a certain ticket seller

Some places are stating it was a 'WBA Eliminator' some a 'WBA Final Eliminator' either way I think it will be some time before he gets a shot (if at all) there a much more lucrative options for the titleholder out there.

Is Puello the 'Super' champion or just the champion ?


Or have the WBA stopped that caper (I know they scrapped the Interim farce) ?

Question is
What's next for ohara
Considering he is now in line for the WBC belt which the commentary team said, but I can't find any evidence of, who knows?
Davies tweeted that he’s mandatory for the WBA.
