Promoter Frank Warren is not happy with the performance of Matt Skelton (21-, 18KOs) last Saturday night at the O2 arena in England. Skleton won a majority decision over rival Michael Sprott to retain his Commonwealth title. Neither fighter performed well and the British crowd let their feelings known with loud boos and chants of "what a load of rubbish." Many were even walking out on the fight. The referee kept telling both fighters to actually fight, but the lack of action only continued. [details]

This was ridiculous.
I honestly haven't seen anything quite like it, with the exception of the infamous Johnny Nelson-Carlos De Leon.

I'm pleased to see a promoter being honest when his guy stinks up the ring.
Remember Don King trying to defend Liakhovich vs. Briggs?

Lots of Skelton's fights are like this, hugging and smothering, i dont like watching them, if i wanted to see a mauling id go and watch those crazy indoniesan zoo keepers who spend their time agitating animals for kicks.
