    I'm 90% sure he was wanting Williams to pull through, seeing as he was alot closer to a title shot than Skelton.

    Which means ££££ = faster, and from my point of view Williams is alot more marketable than Skelton, nobody will want to pay to watch Skelton headbutt and lowblow all night.

    I had Skelton ahead, but deep down I wanted Williams to pull through with the decision.

      You could be right, I just think that an unbeaten record with a high number of KOs (even though that record GREATLY flatters him, as you will know if you're a Limey which I know expect you are) could be sellable.

      I remember seeing threads on here asking if Skelton was a one-punch KO artist. A 95% KO ratio from any heavy is going to attract some attention, particularly if they've never actualyl seen him.
