The bout was hard to score in the early exchanges, as Walker put his foot on the gas, with McCormack electing to pick his shots from the outside. McCormack, 30, started to impress in the third and fourth rounds, picking Walker off as he was coming in. Walker, also 30, never panicked, however, and although he was losing the sessions, he was making McCormack work for them. Walker first made a dent in McCormack midway through the fifth, when he planted a left hand to McCormack’s midsection that forced him to retreat to the ropes. Walker pushed forwards, targeting the body, and again hurt McCormack downstairs before the round’s close.
