    Just came back home and saw Pattinson lost. At the end of the day this was a very risky fight to take in only his 6th / 7th pro contest. It doesn’t mean Pattinson was all hype or anything, I commend him for taking such a fight.

    Fair play to Walker for winning. Maybe we saw Walker against Ritson instead.

    What surprising is Walker was able to hurt Pattinson so easy. He isn't known for his power

    "I want to see that fight again!" No you think Cyrus Pattinson can do better; he can't.

    You were right about it being a risky fight. I'd never seen Walker before, but I looked at Walkers record with 2 losses and a draw and low KO ratio, and though oh this must be a easy fight for Pattinson. Shows you shouldn't go off records!

    He has a serious granite chin, literally couldn't be hurt in there

    Was a throwback fight that. Maybe not most technically astute but an epic watch.

    This card seems like it has been better than what we thought with Flynn and Baker drawing. Walker has a lot more experience than Pattinson and Pattinson also was in a war with a shot Chris Jenkins. Walker is a natural 147 fighter too.

    I do worry for Pattinson. He has taken a lot of damage in his past 2 fights. Seems like this was another FOTY though he has been involved in.

    Fair play to the two of them. Always think it's odd watching a TV interview read notes off an iPhone though!

    Ritson, Laws, Kelly and now Pattinson. The search for a North East cash cow continues.

    Steve Robinson anyone?

    Look how marked up Walker Is.

    Even though he won, proof of the pudding he was in a war.

    Pat McCormack maybe? I reckon he could headline a NxtGen in Newcastle on November 11.

    One thing I will say is that in 7 fights Pattinson has fought Chris Jenkins and Conah Walker back to back in less than 6 months. We see a lot of good amateurs moving a lot slower than he has done.

    Same with McCann. Credit to both of them for stepping in with tough competition.

    Looking forward to see if Galal Yafai can show how good he is and stop Tommy Frank.
