Either Barrett has gone crap. Or Ritson is the real deal. If Ritson can keep this pace up he is a talent.

Ya know some people just kinda have that. I've always had a lot of that on my back to some degree, and I've never taken PED's.

Not a bad scrap really, but talking about PED's, that got my lad done from the army. His back was pretty bad at one one point blisters. Thats the telling point for a blood test.

Ritson picking him off pretty easily, 2 or 3 more rounds I think

I'm obviously not saying everyone who has bacne is a ped user but the amount of pro boxers who I'm noticing with it is definitely high and has me raising my eyebrow.

Ritson pacing himself a little more now, but still lashing out with violent combos that give him the clear edge in the rounds. Barrett's in deep here.

50-44 Ritson

Ritson drops him again with another big body shot, and that's it.

TKO 7 Lewis Ritson

Total domination, 4 knockdowns for Ritson.

Ritson would demolish Cardle, I wouldn't mind seeing that happen next in that case...

Not a bad fighter Ritson, first time ive seen him to be honest. If he had a bit more power im sure he could have dispatched that Barrett lad quicker. Ritson hasnt fought a great deal of talent in his wins but should move on from that win.

Yeah. I would've stopped it at the end of the 6th if I'd been in his corner. That was already more than enough.

There is a reason for for all that acne, im not suggesting its illegal use of anything but my sons back was clear before he began to beef up, you could have popped enough spots to fill a pint glass.

Looked more like psoriasis to me when he was getting interviewed post fight.

Decent fighter, I'd fancy him to dominate Cardle and be slight favorite vs Masher.

Could be the start of a purple patch for the domestic lighweight division.

Carlos Cuadras and Rey Vargas have it bad but they at least have legit drug testing.

I hope not. I had one of those on my privates and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, let alone a whole division.
