    You could be right, but does Dallas have the ability to stop Skelton smothering him?

    I don't rate Dallas at all. Skelton, if he fancies this, will be on his chest all night.

    First up, I'm with you, I think Dallas loses to any live heavyweight and his team know it. Which is why they took this fight - best balance of name opponent with little danger. He was flattened by Price but he did step in late so did not have proper prep, and hopefully has learned from that and is not quite so upright this time. I completely agree that Dallas is limited, don't see him going anywhere much - but the 2012 version of Skelton will gas by the second round, then go in for holding, stumbling, not working the full round... Skelton's single shot power is not that great, and his accuracy falls victim, these days, to his fatigue. Add that to a workrate that was never that great in terms of delivering accurate punches, and I don't see him landing enough clean shots to win this. The only question for me is how much of Skelton's chin remains. Skelton is 45 years old and has not fought in ages, ring rust will be more of a problem for him than for Dallas. Dallas might not be great, but he has enough here.

    If Dallas is still upright at the final bell then he gets this.
