Round eight

Right uppercut lands for Ritson, but Donovan seems unfazed. The Irishman is not backing up as much as in previous rounds; he’s holding his ground and firing back each time Ritson lands.

Both boxers are connecting with clean shots, simultaneously at times. Now it’s Ritson who backs up! Donovan is landing spiteful hooks and uppercuts!

Ritson throws back with a left hook, but Donovan is finding his rhythm! He’s landing with both hands, varying his offence, getting through with straights.

Ritson is still landing, and there’s a danger that Donovan gets caught out, but this more aggressive approach is undoubtedly working for the Irishman.

Ritson looks exhausted, breathing heavily. He’s leaning on the ropes then leaning on Donovan.

Donovan will reach the ninth round for the first time in his career.
