I know Sykes is the British champion, and that he’s unbeaten, but I’ve got a feeling he’s going to lose tonight. He makes so many basic errors, and essentially wins fight on the basis of his ridiculous work rate. Tonight, that work rate won’t account for anything in the first two fights, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him exit before the final stage.
Such were the days, still, hot, heavy, disappearing one by one into the past, as if falling into an abyss for ever open in the wake of the ship; and the ship, lonely under a wisp of smoke, held on her steadwast way black and smouldering in a luminous immensity, as if scorched by a flame flicked at her from a heaven without pity.
Sykes
was a top amateur (ABA champ,England rep) so i think the 3×3 round format should work for him,although he has admitted he is a slow starter.
I don’t agree that he makes loads of basic errors but he does have his faults.
There is more to him than workrate though.
I think Choi wins this.
With a KO percentage like he’s got, he shouldn’t be too hard-pushed… sykes is my second choice, but they meet in the semi, so who knows?
Most fight fans would not spend a dime to watch Van Gogh paint 'Sunflowers', but they would fill Yankee Stadium to see him cut off his ear. (Bill Nack)
Choi is 11/4 for the win. I think he should be closer to 6/4.
I mean, he has more KO’s than six of these guys combined, only Matthews is in double figures.
Choi ftw!!!!!

Correction....
only Matthews is in double figures AND Choi already knocked him out….

I like Choi a lot
He probably could have won a title at one point, but that boat has sailed. But I’m afraid that between his inactivity, the three round format and his age, he’ll get knocked off at some point. I ended up going with Sykes.

I think the short format combined with KO power is a recipe for Choi to come good.

This should be a good one
I’m going with my hometown fighter Gary Sykes,not just because i know him though.
I think he’s on the rise and he’s got the momentum.
Biggest threats will be Choi (but he is 39 now),Murphy and Buckland i reckon.

I hope Ornelas wins
basically because I like him more than I like Steiglitz. (which is the same as saying, I like Ornelas.)

He can box too,not just pressure fight.
I have sparred him as a youngster (though we were quite far apoart in weight)so i know about him.
I’m not saying that as if i was anywhere near his level.
We all knew in the gym that he was the best.
I just used to go sparring.
I once sparred with Adrian Stone.
Not for long, though….
