    I for one really want to see this fight, although it won't happen. I am a pretty big Skelton fan as some of you may know, so I will be rooting for him. Plus I think that he is definitely the more experienced of the two. Who takes it in your opinion and how?

    Skelton is the more skilled.

    I've been waiting some years to be able to say that. Phew.

    I always felt robbed that I never got to see Davey Pearce/Funso Banjo. If this happens, I guess this is as close as I am ever going to get!

    I guess this is further proof all the boxing fancy are into some serious S and M!

    :lol: Sorry. Improper grammar I suppose. I know the fight is on, but what I meant is that I personally will not be able to see it.

    Skelton on points or late stoppage. I think anything Rogan can do, Sketton can do a little bit better.

    Matt Skelton saps the strength out of people and mawls them.The K1 skills
    I want to see him fight Tyson Fury i think Matt would suck up all thats thrown at him and make it rough on Tyson

    BTW I enjoy the K1 it seems to be more boxing/muai thai much better than the UFC ****.
    That Pierre vs Penn **** was an assault on my eyeballs

    I believe Skelton will win a UD, if Rogan stayed up from the bombs threw at him from Harrison, then there is no chance Skelton will score the KO....

    I personally think that Skelton hits considerably harder than Harrison though.

    So there are a few people that voted for Rogan to win... where are the statements to back these votes up? Let's hear some pro Rogan statements.

    This will be a war of attrition. Both are limited but Matt has mixed in better class and that will show in this fight. Skelton on points.

    Maybe not in a single, timed shot but overall in a heavy handed and consistent manner defineatly. I think the fact that Harrision couldn't KO Rogan doesn't mean that Skelton can't.
