Danny Williams predicts Chagaev stoppage win.
Danny Williams, the last Brit to challenge for the world heavyweight title, fears Matt Skelton will be stopped in seven rounds by Ruslan Chagaev.
Williams was battered inside eight rounds by Vitali Klitschko in 2004 and feels Skelton faces a similar fate against the WBA champ.
"It could be fairly even early on as Chagaev is rusty. But Chagaev's greater skill, plus he's a southpaw in front of his adopted home crowd in Germany, will be too much," said the man who handed Skelton his only loss.

IMO this fight is going one of two ways...Either Skelton upsets Chagaev for the title or gets blown out early....no inbetween

John L Sullivan, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Sonny Liston, Muhammad Ali ...... Matt Skellton :'(

That's true .... Skelton is not so out of place on a list comprising of Tommy Burns, Marvin Hart, Primo Carnera, Tony Tubbs, Gerrie Coetzee, Frank Bruno and Shannon Briggs, is he?

Fixed it for you X ;D
Re: Danny Williams predicts Chagaev stoppage win.
Chagaev is a tough fighter and will be willing to brawl with Skelton.
I think Chagaevs greater allround ability will make him the winner in this match-up. Later rounds stoppage.
