    I'll take Sykes by a scared hit and run style ud decision, he'll be **** scared (rightly so) to trade with Buckland and having been out in one and down in another of his previous 2 bouts, I expect him to be very tentative all night.

    I think Sykes wins a decision and I think he'll do it with the same all-action style we're used too as well.

    Pretty even split. :think

    It's mildly surprising to see Sykes ahead. Even without their prior encounter, it's difficult to envision Sykes proving a clear-cut class above Buckland like Murray did.

    As for the Prizefighter blitz, people really think it was just a non-replicable Khan/Prescott situation where the loser wins a rematch hands down?

    johanneson was mandatory,so is buckland.
    i went to the open evening sykes had,it was also shown on look north last night.
    it was a goog night. james hare was also there with his commenwealth belt
    iv got to say that hes looking in vey good condition and he seemed more powerful.
    he said on ringside last night that hes had a real good 8wk training camp also i remember him doing an 8rdr some 10 wk ago where he tko his opponent. i think we may see an improved sykes and seen as though buckland has never done 12 rnds at catchweight before im going to go with sykes.
    plus hes from west yorks and we should support the locals.
