Ritson versus Patera: Lewis Ritson beaten on centers by Francesco Patera in European title fight

Lewis Ritson endured a split choice annihilation to Francesco Patera as he missed the mark in his endeavor to win the European lightweight title in Newcastle.

The 25-year-old Geordie made an ordinarily forceful begin on Saturday night, yet was harmed by body punches as his 17-battle unbeaten record was finished by two scores of 116-112 for Patera, and the other judge gave it 116-112 to Ritson at the Metro Radio Arena.

Thundered to the ring by a rowdy clamor, Ritson was anxious to inspire his neighborhood bolster, directing out a firm poke that drove Patera into turn around in the opening round.
Ritson continued his attack in the second, drawing blood from the nose of his adversary, who looked for shelter on the ropes previously terminating back with fresh punches.

Removing the ring with savage purpose, Ritson crashed shots into the ribs of Patera in the third, however the Belgian landed a couple of eye-getting blends in the fourth.

A bunch of punches from Patera in the fifth appeared to slow down Ritson, who reacted with a terrible snare in the 6th.

Yet, Ritson was noticeably pained toward the finish of the seventh after a progression of stinging punches from Patera, with the ringer bringing an appreciated respite for the main residence man.

Ritson would be shaken again when they stood and exchanged the eighth, and the Tyneside man attempted to fight off Patera with his jarring poke in the ninth.

Another decided strike from Patera left Ritson on the edge in the tenth as he almost shriveled on the ropes following a string of body shots.

Back came Ritson in the eleventh, showing coarseness while dumping his correct hand, yet Patera finished on a high as he directed out punches until the last ringer.
