Danny Williams and Matt Skelton will clash at the ExCeL London on February 25 to finally answer the question of who really is the best heavyweight in Britain. The pair were originally due to meet in July but Williams pulled out hours after weighing in for the bout. "Unlike Audley Harrison who is a complete joke, I look at Skelton as a warrior and I know he will come to have a fight," said Williams, who defeated Harrison on December 10. "For the last five years Harrison was like an irritating boil on my bum and it's a great relief to me that last week I finally popped it. I've proved to everyone that Harrison was a fraud and all-hype and now that episode is over with I want to move on and beat Skelton to claim back my number one spot in Britain before fighting for a world title again. I still haven't forgiven Skelton for calling me a 'bottle job' after I withdrew from our fight in July because of flu, now he will pay for making those comments - painfully. I'll be coming in the ring with all-guns-blazing against Skelton and he won't last. I'll hit him like he's never been hit before." Skelton simply said, "Me and Danny have got unfinished business to settle so he had better turn up this time." Promoter Frank Warren stated that he has spoken to Don King and the winner will get a title shot.
