    Eight years after their 79 second war, the long-awaited rematch is finally here :happy

    While this should be entertaining, someone needs to remind the Board it's no longer 2006.

    I'll find it interesting just because I've always been a big fan of Skelton. For an English title it isn't that bad. Fighters have to get payed at the end of the day, both are names this will sell.

    You'd hardly believe this was a forum for boxing fans most of them time, every other post is by someone moaning about the sport.

    Like you I've been a fan of both boxers, I'm looking forward to it.

    McD is one of the most unlucky guys in the sport domestically.

    He beat Williams and Fury IMO, and his easy win against Larry O has been tarnished.

    not a fight I am that interested in but they are both eligible and good enough to fight for the English tittle so I don't think its a bad match-up

    York Hall, March 15th. Gary Cornish is also on the card fighting an 8 rounder.

    It's the main event so not looking like a great card. Loaded TV again I presume?

    Winner is in place to face the Pianeta/Klitschko winner, whoever that may be.
