Martin Rogan v Matt Skelton - Belfast, November 12

A will head over for this a was at the first fight and it was brilliant can't see it being any better but still has the chance to be a good fight none will want the 12 rounds so both game plans will be get him out of there before round 6! Hope the undercard is good tho!

 

Skelton is very shot they should take his license off him

 

He'd just come back as a Latvian.

 

Two past it heavy's going at it this should be for the wbu title.

 

Rogan pussied out big time against Fury - shame on him.

 

Agreed, but if he wins this I expect Fury-Rogan would happen in the New Year.

 

:rofl

 

Terrible fight if im being honest.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong?

Rogan is now self managed ... yet he withdraws from the International Prizefighter, turns down a career best payday for the British & Commonwealth titles, withdraws from the Pulev fight, elects to fight for the nebulous WBU 'title' against a mediocre cruiserweight, when this falls through he opts for a 'fight' with a men he clearly beat years ago (who has gone 3 - 3 in his subsequent 6 fights the 'wins' against the trailhorse Lee Swaby, the lamentable Ali Adams and a dubious decision against a 20st Kevin McBride)

Is 'Rogie' deliberately trying to destroy his 'career'? certainly looks that way

If (and it's no means a certainty after his display against Kreiskott) he beats Skelton ... so what?

If he loses, game over

'You better believe it'

 

Tough to argue with any of that!

 

Just because neither are going to be going for a world title doesnt mean it's a nothing fight. These two are at similar levels and parts of there careers, should be an even fight , whilst it lasts. And both come looking to fight.

 

This has probably been said a million times. But to me this is the least interesting fight Rogan could have taken, given all the offers and names being thrown about. Tyson Fury vs Rogan is the one I want to see. The Rogan Paper World Title Fight was one I found interesting, even if the belt was deemed bull**** by the BBBoC. I'd forgotten Skelton was still alive, let alone boxing. Apathy is the word here.

 

I'm not expecting great things to come from either of them but it's a good journeyman match up

One moves forward, one knocks it on the head.
