I read about Sykes wins over Murray in an interview on BBN: http://www.britishboxing.net/news_1539-Exclusive-Gary-Sykes-interview.html The Cotto one is pretty well known. Abdulaev beat Cotto in the Olympics and then Cotto beat him up in the pros. However this site has some amateur records of well know fighters: http://www.geocities.com/pedrinet/ :good
I am as well, just know the odd piece of info. Pretty hard to keep track as many am records aren't recorded and there are some many fights that take place.
never ventured into the British Boxing Forum. But I was going to predict Gary Sykes via wide UD / late stoppage. Not seen the fight tonight.. just got in... assuming I've missed it & can't find a result online atm. Dewsbury, represent
Guadalajara, Mexico. "Mexicanos al grito de guerra!!!!!!..." and so on.. nah, jokes... I'm from Dewsbury!
Yeah man, good fight. what were the punch-stats at the end. Sykes 20%, Crolla 18%. but the Thrown stats: Sykes Threw 983-or something... and Crolla 923 i think. Over 10 rounds, as well... not 12. Damn, son! Imagine if that carries on when (hopefully) he's facing World Champions . Sykes always throws a lot...!! Hope he brings it home vs. K. Mitchell. Will be tough... and Mitchell's been boxing well, finishing most his opponents fairly early in his last few fights... Should be another good fight.
Mitchell is fighting Martinez in June i think...so British title will be vacant! Likely that Gary boxes someone like Steve Foster Jr or Femi, Ricky Burns
yeah i kept hearing he'll fight Roman Martinez.. but never read it as a 'CONFIRMED' fight with a date. either way, Good Luck to Gary Sykes! Another one of Keith Tate's successful amateur-projects from Cleckheaton Boxing Academy. 3 of his boys went onto become World Champions... but under his tutelage as amateurs, he's had: 25 national amateur champions, 18 different lads boxing for England. Can't touch that! Plus to top it all off he's a really nice guy! :yep Watch out for young Mohamed Ali (his brother's also pretty good... my brother told me lol) This content is protected & dug this up from earlier this year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaRt7aKvdSs
