    Its winnable for Sykes. Luke showed hes not as good as some were trying to have us believe although hes still a good british lvl operater.
    Sykes didnt perform against walsh but he had a lot going on in his life at the time one thing been having a finger amputated not long before the clash as well as a lot of other things.
    Luke will be fav but its a 50/50 for me.
    What do u think maley im interested in ur opinion of how sykes can beat luke

    Easy night for Campbell in my opinion.

    Campbell is a pretty big favourite for me. I don't think Fast Car and co would risk having back to back defeats.

    The move up might do Sykes some good and I think he was shown how to give Campbell trouble.

    High guard, walk forward and throw punches, Campbell wasn't comfortable at all, very simple tactics and it looked very effective against Campbell.

    I expect a Campbell win but after his last showing and the fact his unbeaten record has gone you never know.

    The only problem with Sykes just coming forward throwing punches is that it's not his natural style, Gary's style was always boxing in and out throwing loads of fast punches. I think Luke had more problems with Mendy because he had boxed quite a lot at Light Welterweight and was used to being in with stronger guys, Gary has been KO'd and has quite a lot of miles on the clock. Decent fight, decent UK name but in reality Luke will win by either landslide points or late TKO with bodyshops imo.

    Good level fight for Campbell to come right back in.

    Campbell will put a beating on him. I honestly still think he can be a world champion in the future. He took Mendy lightly imo and could easily beat him in a rematch.

    Sykes ain't anywhere near Luke in terms of skill and ability.

    Sykes is long past his best and inactive, easy win for Campbell imo
