Comments Thread For: Noakes Goes the Distance in Emphatic Win over Mendy

[BoxingUpdates]

Sam Noakes may have been taken the distance for the first time in his career, but that matters little. The unbeaten 26 year old produced an excellent display to outbox and out-fight the accomplished Yvan Mendy and add the European lightweight title to his British and Commonwealth crowns. The fight was made on just over three weeks notice when, struggling for opponents willing to challenge him for the British title he won by stopping Lewis Sylvester in February, Queensberry decided to pitch him into a shot at the vacant European belt.

I was looking for more damage from Sam. He got in some rounds and looked decent but he still needs some seasoning. A road trip would be nice.

I've heard rumours about a Saudi card being staged in London later this year & if that's the case then Sam defending his triple crown (British, Commonwealth & European title's) against Mark Chamberlain surely has to be on it!
