11th Round Sykes

Great round Sykes, seems the knockdown took more out of Carl.

106-104 Sykes

[Go Faster Stripes]

Sykes could finish this if it was another 2-3 rounds 106-104.

[Kilburn]

Round 11 Sykes

107-103 Sykes

Excellent round from the champion. Johannson has put so much into this I think he's all but done.

Sykes deserves this one. His cornerman McGowan is hilarious - would make Chubby Brown blush!

[black panther]

Don't know what Johaneson's corner are doing telling him to step back ; he needs to forward and go for it here. Good work from Sykes he's got real grit.

[Go Faster Stripes]

Last round to Sykes 116-113.

12th Round Sykes

Sykes youth wins him this fight, Johansson probably would have won this a few years ago, but he just doesn't get 12 rounds anymore in my view.

116-113 Sykes

[MR T]

Great effort from Sykes, he is like a little terrier, I think you need to stop him to beat him....

[Kilburn]

Round 12 Sykes

117-112 Sykes. Score doesn't seem fair on Johannson but Sykes was a clear enough winner.

Hats off to both boxers. I think it's fair to say Sykes has been vindicated.

[palooka]

Just Gary, very good fight, some rounds hard to score but Gary for me. Neither disgraced, both proved a point.

12th Round Sykes

116-113 Sykes

Agreed, he looked lead footed for the last few rounds....

[boxerbob]

cheers for the scorecards guys

[TheCobra]

Sykes now KO'd once and knocked down once in his last 2 fights. Chins ahoy! He will be vulnerable now to people who have improved like Crolla etc and obviously to Buckland. Great heart though from Sykes to get out from that knockdown

[Kilburn]

I don't think there was a great deal of shame in going down from a bomb like that. The way he recovered his strength was pretty impressive.

[Atom Bomb]

Gary dropped hard with massive right hand, gets up and boxes his way to survive round, shows loads of bottle

Don't know how he got up from that one.

He's from Dewsbury.

Fegetelli fight next be good for sykes!

Is this a scientific fact?

Fact: Dosen't matter about your colour, gender or religion. If you're from Dewsbury, you're tough as owt.

Is that just a fact or a scientific fact? just if its scientific I'll not ever have a night out in Dewsbury due to the toughness of the inhabitants.

Are the women 'tough as owt' also?

It was but I think it was kind of the last hurrah from Johannsson - whether it was wake making, lack of preperation or just lack of fitness I though Carl was throwing less in the 8th and was quite spent after 30 seconds of going for it when he nailed Sykes.

I do remember having a rumble in the science lab at school once...

You get all kinds of women here, too tough for all you out of towners.

Sykes got decked by a MASSIVE shot by Buckland, but to be put down by a worn Johansson isn't good. He'll get twatted by Buckland again, IMO.
