    Have got that feeling myself about this, Sykes will box completely different from last time and will stay out of harms way for the first 3-4 rounds you'd think. Add that to the fact that Buckland has not had a competitive fight since Prizefighter and has hardly boxed any competitive rounds at the weight. Sykes has a great shot.

    It'll be a good fight though.

    I think Sykes will be in trouble here. Mentally very difficult to get over what happened.

    Lightning often strikes twice in boxing!!!

    Just cant see how anyone could be confident in Sykes after his display V Johannson. Buckland was still in there after taking 11 rounds of **** from Murray, Sykes just cant keep him off
