What a fight this could be, possible domestic fight of the year contender. I got Walsh winning by late stoppage, who you got?
Great fight I fancy sykes to win on points. His waited along time for this fight. After the smith saga.
Garry Sykes with a punch would take him to another level he's already a really good boxer, shame he doesnt have it!Remember when he nearly fought broner!
I think at this stage of there career's Walsh will have too much for him & it won't be that competitive. Hope I'm wrong as I've got a lot of time for Sykes.
ii can't work out what ur suggesting by this stage of there careers Walsh will be too much? they're both about the same age. sykes has been pro a little longer iirc. its a 50-50 going in,but depending on how well Walsh makes weight will be a big factor in handling sykes workrate esp in the late rounds. apart from this i think they're both evenly matched. and im expecting a great fight
I agree with this.Under normal circumstances,Id want Sykes to win,but I think Walsh can go further.Maybe even a crack at Burns if Burns comes through his next one,hopefully.Walsh would have to put another couple of wins together after this,though.
Got to add to that I slightly disagree about what happens in this.I reckon Sykes speed and courage keeps him in it until the later rounds.Then Walsh takes over.Good Fight is what Im saying.
This is a cracking fight. I have changed my mind about 10 times.. Can see how both can win.. Technically Sykes is a little better. Don't think he's quicker than Walsh but he's fitter and has a higher work rate. Walsh has the power in this one.. I feel that Buckland has more power than Walsh and Sykes stood up too him in the 2nd fight.. I think it will be a close points decision. I'm gonna go for Sykes. I thought Joe Murray out boxed him and I think Sykes will do the same
He said on the bunce show before Murray fight he was 9.9 on fight night against Harrison and could still make sf easy
Think this would be a good fight, both of them can box, have good engines and can carry it down the stretch. I'd have to go with Walsh to take a decision.
Davie please technically Walsh is better by a country mile but sykes's bottle and determination is unquestionable
Define better Billy?? Better technique is Sykes very similar style to your very own Ricky Burns... Is Walsh better technical than Ricky?? Sykes is a very conventional boxer whereas Walsh is more unorthodox. Sykes has a better defence. Walsh is very easy to hit in comparison to Sykes.. Technically Sykes is better.. Humour me what part of Walsh's technique is better than Sykes
