    i like the way chageav puts his shots together, he is one of the best crop of current heavys when it comes to throwing combinations. he will be punching up and skelts not fought in ages.
    i know skelts is big strong and durable, but i can see him bing stopped mid rounds

    No way, if Chageav can handle Valuev, whos is much bigger and stronger than Skelton, then Skelton doesn't stand a chance.

    I do. That way Skelton can learn to "Box" instead of using dirty boxing.This isnt MMA or the K1.Its Marquis of Queensury rules.Skelton needs to learn to stick to them.

    PMSL at the spelling error in the title. Even the WBO wouldn't sanction a fight with a skeleton.

    Seriously though, I see Skelton being soundly outboxed & maybe even stopped late.

    I think Matt Skelton can win, one thing i like about him is that he is a big, with a high workrate. That right there, is bad news for any heavyweight.

    I give him a chance, and thats good enough for me.

    If he does win, Danny Williams and Audley Harrison rematches can be exciting fights.

    forgot this fight was in germany.

    no way the ref lets skelton get close to chagaev and away with his mauling and fouling.

    this will give chagaev the space he likes to outbox skelton.

    expect points deductions.

    Skelton does have a chance, if Chag pulls a jameel mccline and falls over injured!!!!!

    other than that, Chag will soundly outbox him and make Skelton realise just how unskilled he really is, and that he should either quit or stick to the Brittish scene.

    Chagaev got inside Valuev and unloaded some nice combos. Skelton has no chance in hell in defending against that. He will get pounded.
