Whos getting behind Skelton!

Sugar Matt Skelton is bringing the titles home baby, thousands will be waiting on the tarmac when the Easyjet brings him home at Bradford airport.

 

For those expecting a stinker though, I'm 100% certain it will be a decent fight.

Chagaev will be looking, after the lay-off he's had, to get a stoppage win and look good. Skelton does much better when his opponent is coming to him in turn.

Both will be motivated so I think it'll be one of Skelton's better scraps. However long it lasts!

 

Skelton will lose a fugly arse unanimous decision.

Id like to see him pull it off.

 

I can't say im a fan of Skelton or his fighting style, but I will be 100% behind him for this one. He seems to be a honest bloke, and well, I HAVE to support a Brit in a title bout. Having said that I am not expecting him to be able to pull it off, as there is no way he can get a decision against Chagaev.

 

gota be honest but ive seen skelton fight 4 times. williams 1 , an 8 rounder in between , williams 2 and sprott. sprott was a stinker but the other 3 were fairly watchable , especially williams 1. that was mini war! hes got a pretty good ko record , so i think a lot of people are judgeing him by the sprott fight. i know i will be backing him!

 

I'll be cheering on Skelton but i think he will come up short...probably a comfortable UD.

 

yeah, get behind him. but be sure to get out of the way when he comes crashing to the canvas!

TIMBERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I pray to god almighty himself that Skelton does not win this.

The heavyweight scene is bad enough without this "boxer" winning a world belt.

****, even Butterbean winning a HW title would be better than Skelton

 

This wont be a fight. More a public execution.

 

'yeah, get behind him. but be sure to get out of the way when he comes crashing to the canvas!

TIMBERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

hahahahahhahahahah i like it.

I hope your wrong though!

 

Can't see him winning this but I'll be cheering at the telly anyway!

 

i will support skelton.
i like the big man.

i have said before ,the ref will penalise skelton for every infraction and chagaev will take advantage and outbox him , possibly koing him with his accurate straight left down the pipe.

 

It's hard to take any interest in the fight for me....I hope he wins but am not arsed if he gets beat.....He's gotta get in shape tho,because he looks like he's had a stroke after 4 rounds.

 

I can only see a Chagaev win here. Have to agree with Damon D in that i think it'd be a better fight than people expect. I think Chag will make it so. It's a **** division but I like Chagaev as a boxer.

 

I like Skelton. He admits he's not this best boxer in the world and has done well with his limited ability. I think he's in with a chance, he's durable enough to last the distance.
