Chagaev /Skelton -ANYBODY INTERESTED??

I hope we see Haye against Williams, Skelton, Sprott and Harrison before he challenges for the world title. If he beats all of them he would definitely be ready for the title. All of them have different styles so Haye would have to adapt a bit. eeek I don't know about that, he'll be fighting this guys for the rest of his life. Maybe just pick on the best of them, which is probably Matt, at least Matt is determined and focused. Sprott is game but basically below average. Williams is an enigma. Harrison is just bleurggggh

I'd love to see David Haye go through those annoying heavies that are either done or just not good enough. Like James Toney who makes a mockery of the division, Audley and Matt 'yuck' Skelton.

I wonder how long it will take for the division to be resurrected, and see its way out of this slump.. When David Haye comes to town!!! :boxing:

Let David Haye come into the HW ranks and spark some excitement into this most dull of divisions. careful what you say. if you even insinuate the heavyweight division and ain't all that great a bunch of big eatern european cry babies start calling you ignorant.

seems a little odd that skelton didn't show for the presser today. I'm not surprised. He could be havin second thoughts about fightin Chagaev. Skelton is such an unorthodox fighter and his style is so boring. Skelton should fight Ruiz be the ultimate borefest however both of them got same style. One punch hold. I'll watch this cuz I'm a Chagaev fan.

Man, Skelton's past his prime. He was at his best 50 years ago with that show on CBS.

I'll probably watch it if there is some kind of stream because I like Chagaev. The HW fight that Im the most interested in is the Povetkin/Chambers fight that's going to be on B.A.D. I think whoever wins that could be the next star in the HW division, especially if it's Povetkin.

Yeah, starts at 8pm on Setanta 2. Apparently it's repeated later on, on Setanta 1, before the RJj fight. Oh, and, hi - newbie here!

What channel is it on? setanta2 it starts at 8pm I think.

I dont really care for the Heavyweights at the moment, Only one or 2 fighters stood out at the moment (WK and peters), The rest really needs to build up the publics interest in the Heavies again..I hope people like Potvekin or Haye steps up and give us the excitement that the HW brought to us in the past.

Does anybody seriously care, or will want to watch this sub-standard world title bout between these 2 uninspiring heavyweight fighters for the WBA belt. It's just a shame that the heavyweight division has reached an all-time low, and has failed to capture the attention of boxing viewers worldwide. I wonder how long it will take for the division to be resurrected, and see its way out of this slump.. The heavyweight division is struggling in America because of ignorant people like you. Matt Skelton is nothing special, but Ruslan Chagaev is...Chagaev is an undefeated, skilled southpaw that can punch like a mule, he also has a very good chin. Chagaev was a great amateur as well and he easily beat the legendary Felix Savon. You need to do some research on heavyweights before you call them bullshit names like uninspiring. Ruslan Chagaev is a very good fighter and his talent will be on display when he schools Skelton and wins by very wide UD or KO/TKO.

What time is it on? If it's on the same time as Jones-Trinidad, I'll just keep tabs of the results, if it's a different time, then I'll watch it.

What channel is it on? setanultanatana

Prime Matt Skelton vs Jerome Le Banner

What channel is it on?

I'll be watching it I'm not expecting it to be exciting though and I'm picking Chagaev to win on points. The HWs are piss poor at the moment but Skeltons a Brit so I'll have an interest in the fight and I'd love to see Matt win.

I'm going to watch it, its not going to be a great fight but its going to be interesting to watch, chagaev should win this by a country mile but skelton will try and maul him into submission, hes got a chance.
