I'm sorry. What speed and timimg? This must be a joke right?

I think they mixed up the names for the headline. Mason is going to wash Noakes.

Not the first person I've heard say Noakes is faster than you think, maybe it comes from his timing or the timing of his opponents who've slowed down a little.
I hope they're right as it makes the fight that extra bit ****y for me.

On the outside looking in for all his quality he looks noticeably slow to me. Its the main reason why I am picking Mason but maybe I am putting way too much stock into the speed and sharpness differentials. Should be a fun fight regardless not often we see two undefeated, highly touted prospects going at it

Speed and timing are two of the attributes Mason has a clear advantage over Noakes.

Noakes has to hurt Mason early or it will be an impossible task.

Abdullah is fast but he has glass a chin.
