Fraudly would get his ass KTFO. What a joke, haha.
Re: Peter to defend against either Skelton or Fraudley on July 12
Well it makes sense for Peter I suppose.. I mean anything is better than him just sitting around waiting till the Klitschko fight, and this way I assume he will fight either of these two in the UK, therefore making a pretty decent payday for a 0 risk stay busy fight. I do admit the idea that either Skelton or Audley deserve a title shot is ridiculous, but it is an optional defence, Peter basically had to have shown interest in fighting one of them. My only worry is that SKelton may actually be able to take Peter's punches and hang in there, which could make for one of the ugliest HW championship fights of all time as long as it lasts. Skelton is an awful fighter to watch, and I though Peter looked very poor in his last fight with Maskaev.

Time for Audley to shine and show the World what he's capable of :rolleyes:
He beat Peter's in the amateurs and it would be crazy if he did again for a World Title!!
The you shall all bow down to Sir Audley, hour heavyweight hero :rolleyes3:
Re: Peter to defend against either Skelton or Fraudley on July 12
Apparently I read Warren is leaning towards Harrison by seling their amateur meeting, Harrison beat Peter in the olympics a long time ago. Plus Matt Skelton is having his EBU title shot re-scheduled so my guess is it will be Fraudley in there.
Re: Peter to defend against either Skelton or Fraudley on July 12
Can you imagine if fraudly got the shot and won!! :o
That would surly make him the worst HW title Holder ever, and a shoe in for BBC sports personality of the year
Go A - Farse !! ;D

I actually think the bigger risk for peter is fraudley.
Much bigger puncher that`ll potentially be able to physically manouevre peter around the ring and dictate the pace of the fight.
This im afraid is a big huge slice of money talks dictating who gets a title shot and where at. Warren has the dollars and peter has the belt.
WBC ranking system is in a complete and utter mess at the moment. virchis, gomez and ruiz make up the top 3, povetkin/thompson arent even in the top 15, harrison/skelton arent anywhere near becoming a mandatory contender and yet one of them is about to fight for boxings most established and honoured championship :confused::confused::confused:

Peter is taking a fight before his Big fight with Britali, but Dan Rafael of ESPN.COM/Boxing reported that the opponent will be:
Donnell Holmes, Carl Davis Drummond or J.D. Chapman
