I've never seen Skelton fight but I hear hes a rough customer who can **** as well,plus hes undefeated, but hes old. We all know what Williams can do, and thats why Im askin you guys who have seen Skelton fight, who do you think will win this one?

I hope its a double DQ so we won't have to watch either guy embarass themselves vs. a quality opponent -
I'm glad this fight has come to fruitation!... It'll be a realy "pick-em" fight.
I've seen about 7 or 8 Skelton fights, he's a real rough customer and likes a brawl. He's a little bit "huggy" but he's hungry... And he just keeps coming forward brawling!
The problem Danny Williams may have is trying to keep him off him. If this fight took place a year ago I would have said Danny Williams by UD, but I just wonder how much the Vitali beating has taken out of him?
This will be an interesting fight, I reckon Skelton will win it by very late stoppage.Comment

i will go for williams by UD, skelton is tough and can punch, but he's not as good a boxer as williams, i think experience will count for a lot as well, which also favors williams, should be a good fight thoughComment

What a terrible, terrible waste of time. Go away, Danny Williams! You had your chance and came in a flabby 250+. Why is this not Skelton vs. Audley Harrison? At least then you'd have two undefeated farces...
I want either/and/or:
Byrd-Wlad II
Toney-Vitali
Byrd-Vitali II
Toney-Golota
Peter-any contender
All before Williams/Skelton vs. anyone...
Come on, heavyweight division!
Jeez...Comment

"We all know what Danny Williams can do". No, I don't reckon so. Not unless you've seen him against Mark Potter.Comment

I want Williams to teach Skelton a lesson about coming into boxing so late in the game. Williams will definitely win this one, probably by knockout, but definitely in a mismatch.
Skelton is a freaking K-1 fighter and simply doesn't belong. If he proves me wrong, I'll admit it, but I don't think he will. Skelton is like 38 or 39 anyhow I think. I hope Williams wins mostly so he can give Tyson a rematch so Tyson can correct that situation. Tyson needs to at least avenge that loss.Comment

Boxing logic would certainly dictate that Williams would win. But then boxing logic is often supplanted... just look at Ruiz's winning streak.Originally posted by masterdirectorComment

I reckon your a ******. I saw the Potter fight, Williams came back to win with one arm, the man has heart.Originally posted by AnorakComment

Has this one actually been signed & scheduled?
I know that it's been in the discussion stages for the Tszyu-Hatton undercard, but hadn't heard that it was official yet.
Hopefully that's so.
If it does infact come off then I'm going to go with Skelton in what will probably be seen as a bit of an upset.
While I realize that with respect to actual learned skills & boxing experience, that Danny is head & shoulders above the still raw Skelton, I think other factors will dictate beyond those. Namely Skelton's unbeaten confidence coming in & Williams' post-Klitschko mental, emotional & physical state. Which I do NOT expect to be particularly good.
Danny has never been the most stable & focused of fighters under the best of circumstances ( the Tyson anomally not withstanding... ), but coming off of the horrific & complete beating that he suffered for 8 long rounds against Klitschko, I just can't see him being "all there". That sort of a defeat is of the sort that ruins careers.
And, if my instincts are correct then that's just what that KO by Vitali has done.
Who knows, I may be proven wrong & Williams will have learned something about himself during the long dark hours after that loss & will come back mentally focused, emotionally strong & physically prepared to take care of business & fight his way back to the top. With the domestic showdown against Skelton the first rung on that ladder.
But, I just don't see it going that way.
I see Skelton coming out & taking control of a unsure, unsteady Williams & forcing a stoppage in about 4 rounds.Comment
