Wins after his opponents has a injured rib. TKO. He didn't look to impressive and I don't think he has a chance in the heavyweight division.
Skelton defends.

I'd forgotten how useless Matt Skelton is. ITV are bigging him up, including Ricky "errrr..." Hatton, Jim "inappropriate comments, including stuff about meat cleavers" Rosenthal and Mark "I make sausages, tee hee" Krence, but Danny shouldn't have bottled it.
Having said that, Skelton's chin (I know, I know, it was hardly a test of it tonight) is pretty rock solid. So you've got to be prepared to go 12 rounds.
ITV's coverage is pretty good, though maybe they should take out the "have a **** in the centre of the ring" element. Still, nice to see turncoat Barry McGuigan in the mix, which did take something away from the sausage anecdotes.
"So, Mark, you make sausages." F*** me!Comment

Yeah, fair play, he gave it a shot.Originally posted by Lol999I'm not a fan of Krence's for his out of the ring behaviour but credit to the lad he got in and had a good go. If he never has a big fight again he's been there and tasted it.

I think tonight was characterised by people pretending to laugh at other's jokes. I particularly liked the lame commentator giving Ricky a patronising elbow in the ribs like he was scuffing the hair of a young Victorian urchin before flipping him a Werther's Original and sending him on his way. Ricky looked slightly perturbed by it, or maybe he was just thinking about dinner.
I actually preferred the camraderie on BBC, with what seemed like a genuine mutual like and understanding with Bunce-Woodhall-Whatsiface.Comment
