However, Walsh managed to drop McCullagh twice in the remainder of the fight, even coming close to stopping him in the ninth.

McCullagh started the fight strong, and was winning for the first half of the fight. In the semi-final, Walsh faced Tyrone McCullagh. In the ninth round, Walsh sent Socarras to the ropes with a flurry of shots, which prompted the referee to stop the fight. After a close start, a brawl started in the fifth round, in which Walsh managed to score a knockdown over Socarras. In his next fight, Walsh fought Harion Socarras as a part of the quarter-final of The Golden Contract featherweight tournament. In the end, two judges scored the fight in favor of Walsh, 117-111 and 115–114, while the third judge gave the fight 115–113 to Paulin, thus awarding the split-decision victory to Walsh to retain his British featherweight belt. Walsh was the better man for most of the fight, although Paulin had a couple of rounds where he boxed well and took the fight to Walsh. The fight was considered a significant step up in quality for Paulin. On 28 June 2019, Walsh defended his British featherweight belt against Lewis Paulin. Walsh was set to make his first defence of the title in January 2016 against Ryan Doyle, but instead faced the undefeated Darren Traynor, stopping the challenger in five rounds. The fight went the distance, with Walsh scoring a split decision to become British champion. Two years later, on 26 September 2015, Walsh faced Samir Mouneimne for the now-vacant British featherweight title.

The fight went the full twelve-round distance, with Selby winning a clear UD to hand Walsh his first loss. In October 2013, Walsh challenged Lee Selby for the British and Commonwealth featherweight titles.

By April 2011 he had won his first twelve fights, and on 21 October scored a unanimous decision (UD) over Liam Richards to win the English super-bantamweight title.
