    seems a bit dumb to me, he should be keeping his head down and getting the job done, why should the british guys cancel each other out of contention?

  4. Can't see Skelton talking **** about Haye. He probably just said he'd like the fight.

    Should Haye lose to a Klit then make the fight if not give Skelton an eliminator with Sam Peter for an eliminator

    Don't be silly. He never called him out, he said he would like the fight but he knows it won't happen.

    hes calling him out cos a fight with Haye is his retirment fund. it makes him more money than a world title shot.

    If he is calling him it's simply to boost his upcoming fight with Marty Rogan, he's trying to get a bit of publicity.

    Doesn't sound like something Matt would say but if they did fight then it wouldn't be as easy as some of you think, Skeltons no mug and i think anyone has a punchers chance against Hayemaker

    I don't see a problem with Skelton calling out Haye.

    Unless he can get a Klitschko in the ring next, for me it is a logical move - other than most likely having to work with Warren.

    Skelton didn't call him out......he was probably answering a question directed at him by a journalist and it's a way of keeping his name relevant and in peoples head

    Just 'cos names are mentioned doesn't mean guys are calling each other out

    I think Skelton would absorb anything that Haye can throw and give him a good test over 12 rounds.

    I agree.

    To me, there is little point fighting someone who will just take a dive in return for a few $$$. If Haye were to stop Skelton....... then it would really get people talking IMO - because nobody has even put a dent in him thus far.
