    Skeete literally never stops moving. It's pretty remarkable to watch, if you can appreciate it.

    He is doing the not getting hit bit well again but sometimes I do wish he would throw more and attack. Doesn't fit his game plan but I do wonder what will happen when a real pressure fighter gets in with him.

    The poor guy they brought over to get knocked out by Dubois who's fighting right now just got out of the first round. He used to fight as a LHW!

    ...frankly, I think Skeete would do much better than Pac against Horn. Styles.

    I'm for it. Winner gets Horn (if he beats Pacquiao again)?

    I wouldn't mind to see it... But Horn himself might have bigger aspirations.

    Well, the winner of a Skeete vs. Eggington II would very likely be in the mando spot. As of two weeks ago Horn was the WBO #1, Matthysse #2, and Skeete #3 at welter. So now presumably Matthysse is just ahead of Skeete and that gap could be narrowed or even surmounted with another W over Eggington. (who didn't appear in the WBO's top 15 as of the June publishing, but mustn't have been far off and he could've squeaked in there now with a few of the shake-ups; ie Mikhaylenko and Sammy Valentín Jr. now likely dropping after their losses this past weekend)
