In a recent interview with ITV, promoter Frank Warren said that he is in the process of lining up the winner of the upcoming Danny Williams-Matt Skelton rematch to face WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev. Warren would like stage the event before the end of the year, preferably in Britain. [details]

I hope so. Valuev bieng knocked down would be the greatest knockdown in the history of boxing IMO!Im supporting Danny Williams.
He should ko Skelton. And then stop Valuev from beating Marciano's record.
And then maybe fight Rahman. We'll see.Comment

I feel the same way.Originally posted by El Temiblevaluev would beat williams fairly easily, styles make fights an william's slow plodding forward style would be easy for valuev to jab him for 12 1sided rounds
I'm glad we can have a britishman represent our country in a heavyweight title fight, I don't think that's happened since Lewis.. but this isn't a good fight for Williams.Last edited by Shanus; 07-06-2006, 10:55 AM.Comment

The fact you mentioned Valuev and Marciano in the same sentence made me shiver. Yikes, that's says all you need to know about how they've "built" this guy up. They won't put him in with someone like Klitschko or Brewster or Peter until he "beats" (legitimately or not) guys like Williams, McCline, Guinn and maybe even McCall. Those are the kind of guys they will look to put him in with. DK might get TOS Williamson a shot too...Originally posted by YamanIm supporting Danny Williams.

The guy will be in the history books if this goes on. And he's not supposed to be.Originally posted by cupcrazy01The fact you mentioned Valuev and Marciano in the same sentence made me shiver.

I think Skeltons lean on em and maul em style would be nullified by valuevs sheer size.Originally posted by Southpaw StingerDo you think Skelton has a better chance at Valuev?
I think that a mentally right Williams stands more of a chance ,that is of course if he can beat Skelton again on saturday night which I think he will again by narrow decision.
Just my opinion.Comment
