Liam Walsh vs Garry Sykes

Really??

I think the possibility of a fight with Martinez for a world title - which he won - proved to be a much bigger and better route to go down than a British title fight with Sykes.

Also if he didn't want anything to do with Sykes, why would be bring him in a sparring partner?

 

I think Walsh has more tricks than a ****** of trees. I have warmed to Gary Sykes over the years, he's proved he's a good fighter and not just some spice boy.

 

I think he trying to wind billy up mate

 

Dave this is exactly what I mean when you let yourself down regarding boxing knowledge, Walsh is primarily a switch hitting counter puncher and Sykes a aggressive front foot fighter, both have decent defensive skills
and id say Sykes punches harder, if any of the boxes like Ricky its Walsh, I simply cant see were your coming from never mind I will give you the benefit of the doubt your fae Dundee
Happy New Year by the way

 

haha i was looking for a bite off billy I dont think any of them are Ricky's level ha, its a new year and I wanted to catch him first day of year, start as i mean to go on, For me its a great fight and if i was to pick a winner its walsh by stoppage for me. Like sykes but think walsh is relentless

 

Gary helped us with sparring and was a great help, the guys got a good engine and a top team round him

 

I know he has a win over Coyle in the prizefighter format, but how do you see a 12 rounder going between the two?

 

Walsh is pretty come forward in the fights I have seen. Both will meet in the centre of the ring.. Walsh is more Southpaw with a bit of switch hitting is quite vulnerable when he goes orthodox.. I've watched a lot of both. I see a lot of similarities between Ricky and Gary. Obviously not on the same level but similar in a lot of ways.. Will be a cracking fight no matter what our opinions are.. Happy New Year to you and your family too Billy

 

I just think Sykes has been in a lot of hard fights where as Walsh is on the way up & improving. I hope I'm proved wrong though.
