    Default Anyone heard of Paul Sykes??

    He died a couple of years ago and his biggest moment in boxing was fighting John L Gardner for the British title in 1979.

    He is better known though (especially in and around Wakefield, West Yorks) as being a thug who was in and out of prison and rumour has it he used to batter the screws until they knocked him 2 cells into one.

    Here are a few things on youtube about him anyway.

    Is he related to Gary Sykes? Gary is a decent fighter, i think he's from Dewsbury/wakefield aswell.

    If you get a chance watch his fight with John Gardner, he gets an absolute beating

    No, I don't think they are related. Paul Sykes has a son but apparently he's inside now for murder!!
