    I will go for Sykes by decision - good even match up though, credit to Maloney for that.

    Ian Napa (19-7) vs. Jamie McDonnell (12-2-1)
    Ashley Sexton (8-0) vs. Usman Ahmed (5-2-1)
    Scott Belshaw (10-3) vs. Larry Olubamiwo (6-1)


    I think that if Gary Sykes can stay out of the way and box but making sure he does not get drawn in he can win this fight...the longer it goes the better IMO...:yep

    Gary Sykes is in far better condition and much fitter...:yep

    If Sykes gets drawn into a scrap and gets tagged by CJ he will get knocked out...:bbb

    I think that if they moved this show up North it could bang out a number of venues...Brentwood for two Yorkshire Rivals...:rofl

    Is that from Boxrec?

    I read in the local paper that it was cancelled cos Sykes got nominated to fight for the Lonsdale. Said he'd only be having a keep busy fight on the Brentwood card.

    Carl supposedly hired a sports nutritionist and has been back in gym for a while. He will bring Syke's all he can handle that's for sure. Sykes has to be the favorite but i wouldn't like to write Carl off. If he really is in good shape then he still has a bit left to beat Sykes.

    Yep, The Metrodome would be great too...:yep

    Johannsen ain't a keep busy fight...if CJ is fit and firing I think that it could be a tough night for Gary, but it is not something that he cannot overcome...:good

    Sykes will destroy him, he's one of the best prospects I've seen live.

    Sykes is a grea prospect but a fit and dedicated Johanesson is a very hard task. Winner easily cleans up the division.
