Lewis Ritson appeared to have received a gift from the judges as he won a 12-round split-point decision against Miguel Vazquez in the show game room in Peterborough, although he appears to be fully dispatched
Vazquez, the former IBF lightweight champion, controlled the pace the entire fight and never seemed awkward to Ritson, who walked after him but had very little success. moved well and chose Ritson, and while he didn’t land a lot of huge punches, he did get a lot Six years after losing his world title, a victory would have breathed some life into his career, but Ritson, who has been talked about as an opponent of Regis Prograis in the near future, can move forward and to the top
Marcus McDonnell scored at Vazquez by 116-113, but it was canceled by the scores of Michael Alexander (115-113 Ritson) and Terry O’Connor, whose 117-111 Ritson score led Bob to believe Williams was the referee
Vazquez seemed to have received a surprisingly easy night from Ritson, who let him build up a huge lead early on and was then unable to close the ring as he continued the fight.
It was supposed to be the night that Ritson showed himself capable of competing at the world level in super-lightweight but neither Ritson nor his trainer Neil Fannan seemed unduly worried about how things were going, because Vazquez was allowed to box at a comfortable pace without being under serious pressure
Vazquez, who was trying to win for the first time of three trips to Britain after losses to Josh Taylor and Ohara Davies, put Ritson on the end of his first-round jab and kept him there He moved well, stayed out of range as Ritson followed him at a walking pace
If Ritson had hoped Vazquez would slow down, he never made it. In the Eleventh, Vazquez picked up the pace, leading Ritson in the punches Yet at the final bell, Fannan told Ritson that « he didn’t there is only one winner « and his trust was justified
RItson said the fight showed he was not ready for Prograis, the former WBA welterweight champion, although he believed he won
“It was a very close fight, he was awkward and I had been a year out of the ring,” said Ritson “I thought he was just hitting his punches when I hit him with sharper punches You choose what you like I went back to the area and they were convinced that I had won I trust Neil’s instincts and I think we won
« [I wasn’t surprised] how good he was, but how clumsy he was Neil said not to be frustrated with the jab, but the more the fight went on I got more frustrated because I just couldn’t hit him, hit, hit hit, run away, run away It’s just his style, but we got the win and it shows us where we’re at It’s supposed to be Progressing then, but I think we have a while before we get there It was a bit of a revelation
« Whatever you think I was getting the shots cleaner and he was hitting, hitting, hitting, running away That’s what it is We came away with a win and I think that’s right title «
The story of the puppet career! This man has been robbed so many times it’s ridiculous
GiftRoom always lives up to their shenanigans, you have to knock out their fighters like Ruiz did to Joshua to win or Povetkin did to Whyte to win!
That’s why Serrano and Wilder refused to review them instead…
