    I think there is place for the format.

    You have to take your hat of to Sykes.

    To come back from the last prizefighter and also he hardly looked like he was breathing at the end of that!!!

    Flannigan to win this IMO.

    Lads, Is it me or is Anthony Crolla a guy caught between styles?. He seems to want to box when it's time to press. Press when he can be a little cuter, I dunno but he seems to lack a identity as a fighter now. Like they are trying to do both, and not sure why when and how.

    The Uppercut just said to me caught between weights as well, another good shout.

    It's just crude to me, but I respect others like it.

    Why dont they put on Fielding/Dilks now to give sykes more time to recover? would make sense.

    I definitely agree caught between weights,he moved up just cos he got the chance against John Watson? Then stayed as champion not sure it was a move that was ever planned.

    He doesn't look comfortable against busy fighters who pressure him

    I see Jamie Mcdonnel is fighting in an IBF final eliminator against Vusi Malinga, if he wins it what are his chance's against Leo Santa Cruz?

    Only seen Leo Santa Cruz's last fight but he seems to be a top fighter with a very high work rate.

    I've only seen a little of Santa Cruz but from what I've seen slim to none.
