Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Okay, next up is Sprott v Skelton, and Sprott is coming in to some classical music. Can anyone correct me, cause I'm thinking it is one of the pieces from Holst's 'The Planets'. Not entirely sure though, I'm more of an indie kind of guy. sprott looks pretty nervous. Skelton is loving his entrance, coming in o a bit of nice soul music, but once again I wouldn't like to place it. Skelton boincing around a bit, but his hood keeps falling over his face. Classy.

How is it bashing? You trying to me his chin is made of iron? That he's the real thing? I swear some of these groupies are so sensitive.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
You havent seen the fight and your talking like an authority on it?
No one said his chin is made of iron. If you actually read waht people post you can take a lot from it.
By the way, calling anyone who doesnt agree with you a groupiue is getting pretty tired too, you need soime new material old bean.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!

If you're getting fucked up by a non puncher like Limond you've got no chance up in class.
Gotta give him credit on winning that fight though.
spot on mate...
hes got speed and is flashy but for me his power aint all that and his chin is weak.
that is why he is being matched with non punchers all the time.
but i guess were in a limited group mate... but make now mistake as soon as hes in with a puncher i'll be betting my house on him losing
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 1:
Let's hope the heavies can provide entertainment to the standard of the Khan fight. Sprott looking quite fleshy. Plenty of Sprott fans in the house. ITV have Skelton's age as 39, either way...he's old. MAtt Skelton also gets a decent reception, but a few boos in there from the Sprott fans.
Cagey opening, as they both fall short with jabs. Sprott finds gloves with his jabs. One minute gone and no meaningful shots landed. Sprott with a right to the body. Sprott circling and Skelton holding the centre of the ring. Sprott falls short with a jab to the body. Skelton misses a jab. Striaght right lands from Sketlon. Another jab from sprott.
Sprott wins the round two punches to one. FFS.
10-9

Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
I cant believe that the nights boxing isnt even half way through.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 2:
Some action would be welcome. They traded more words than punches there. SKelton with a straight right piercing the guard. Sprott jabs to the body. Another jab up top. Has someone told Skelton he can box? Skelton comes forward, alnding two body shots. They both jab and fall short. "not a great fight this" from the commentator paid to make it sound interesting. Sprott with a jab. Sprott's long jabs are covering his face from counters fairly well too. Sprott misses with a lefthook. Skelton with some body shots, and sprott with some short hooks/slaps to the head.
Sprott again, but this is f***ing s**t.
20-18

You call a girl a girl. You call a groupie a groupie. It's not material at all. When some one can't admit there fighter has short comings or gets upset when some one points them out. That makes them a groupie. Your a Con groupie. Accept it.

Me neither,awesome weekend! Missed most of the Khan fight though and this HW is really boring..
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
The tune skelton came into is Dies Irae by Verde, its the main theme tune for battle royale (kick ass film)
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
Round 3:
Skelton prowling before the bell. Skelton backing Sprott up with a jab and a hook to the body. Vann having a word with them both. Sprott lands one of four jabs. Right to the body from Skelton, and a left as they clinch. Jab from Sprott, and Skelton lurches into a clinch, from where he lands a couple of short hooks to the body. Skelton warned for using the head. Body shot from Skelton, and they have a wrestle. SSprott turns his back in a clinch, and Skelton punches to the kidneys. Skeltong given a warning. They trade jabs, and Sprott falls short with a hook. They trade more jabs, and Sprott misses with a hook. Body shots from Skelton. Jab from sprott lands.
Still pretty dire fare, but Skelton gets that one.
29-28 to Sprott.
Re: British RBR Action - Four big title fights!
VD once again I suggest you actually read whats being posted. I didnt say Amir has an iron chin (for the second time) I said it doesnt look good. Given that he took several clean hits on the chin and got up, Im giving him a stay of execution.
Is that alright? or do I have to call it right now, black or white one way or they other?
