Cyrus Pattinson is making a comeback from a difficult period in his career, as he prepares to fight in Newcastle this Saturday. A former top amateur boxer, Pattinson turned professional in 2021 and initially enjoyed a successful run, winning his first six fights and establishing himself as a popular figure in the North East. However, a loss to Conah Walker in 2023 marked a turning point, and Pattinson found himself without a promoter, manager, or trainer, while also struggling with a serious eye injury. He has since found a new trainer in Billy Nelson and has won three consecutive fights, setting his sights on the British and Commonwealth welterweight titles.
Pattinson has spoken openly about his struggles with depression and has found a new sense of purpose, saying "I've got a good fighter, a dangerous fighter in front of us on Saturday night who's coming to win... I put my heart and soul into everything I do." With his confidence renewed, Pattinson is determined to prove himself as a top-level fighter and is eager to take on new challenges.
