Sykes+135; Buckland-165. These guys already fought back on 11/20 of last year. Buckland KO's Sykes in the 1st round of a scheduled 3 rounder? The past performance of both of these guys is a little strange. Fighting 3/6 rounders with a few 10's and twelves thrown in for good measure. Neither guy is any thing special, but Buckland already KO'd this guy and he is only a -165 chalk? Please tell me what I am missing here.

Unfortunately, even though I have this piece of shit on the ignore list, I had to read another one of his useless, non -contributory posts. Only time this lurker shows up is to crack wise. Never posts picks/opinions or anything useful. What a pitiful mother fucker. Only mission in life is to be an insolent little prick. Sad.
don't trust a guy who says he'll meet you at a fight and never shows
he was prolly at a photoshoot with de la hoya en lingerie

Yea. Later for him. But I still don't get why Buckland isn't a bigger favorite. Maybe the odds makers feel it was a lucky shot? Line moved a little. I am staying away unless someone posts something more definitive. Guess I'm just looking for a play as this w/e has UFC action, but nothing as far as boxing, for me at least.
Line has dropped significantly on Buckland to -130. Also round prop is lined at 10.5 over-145. Buckland was quoted as saying he is NOT looking for a KO and wants to wins on points. Sykes is quoted as saying he will be fighting very carefully; chin tucked, etc., so maybe that's why we see the 10.5 prop-145. Good luck to anyone with the onions to bet this one.
