Good post. One thing that does annoy me is all of this hype of "great discipline", "mature performance" talk. It wasn't on par with Eubank vs Marcus Morrison but it was a case of Noakes staying in first gear and not doing much else. Walsh knew he was beat from early on and it turned into a survival job. Noakes wasn't being offensive unless Walsh was throwing and Walsh was throwing less and less as he went into survival mode. It's easy to go the distance at an easy pace where you are having things your own way but it doesn't prepare you for a proper 12 rounds at a high level at all. I just don't like to see fighters carrying opponents when it looks like they could get them out of there with a sustained attack.
