    I voted McBride just based on the records, he has more experiance and is huge, but now that you guys say that Skelton is good I take that vote back.

      Skelton is very amatuerish and very much unproven. From what I've seen, this would probably be a competitive fight. Skelton gets hit alot.

        What I find interesting is that a lot of the US members who haven't seen Skelton seem to be quite impressed on what they've heard. Will this go the way of Ricky Hatton when they see how much rule-bending Skelton does? 90% of his boxing is leaning on the other bloke to wear him out.

          McBride will win this on points. Why? Because Skelton is absolutely awful.

              I don't think he's that good.

                  this is one ****** fight. skelton is ****ing 38 years old and mcbride is one of the biggest bums in the division today.

                  skelton by TKO.

                    McBride is a lousy fighter. I think Skellton beats him on attitude and mentality alone.

                      Did anyone see Skelton vs. Mirovic? He wasn't hurt (his chin really is quite impressive... so far) but his eye was closed and for once he looked to be blowing a bit. Could it be he struggles with bigger guys???
