Result:
Jung Koo Chang (#16) TKO11 (Cuts) Jackie Paterson (#48)
This was a really tough loss for Paterson.
The fight had started slowly, with the Korean fighter holding sway. Paterson upped the ante in the middle rounds landing some nice shots to the body whilst outworking his opponent but had paid for his infighting with a nasty cut over the right eye.
Halfway through the ninth Chang landed a big right cross which sent Paterson to the canvas, the Scotsman got to his feet just in time to beat the count. He surprised the hometown fighter by not covering up and actually took the fight to Chang.
Paterson dominated the next three rounds but halfway through the eleventh stanza the cut over his right eye reopened and the fight was stopped.
Patterson was ahead on two of the three scorecards at the end of the tenth round.
Up next ............
