Warren offers Haye skelton bout

[Tins06]

Dont know why but this makes sense to me. Matt skelton...despite being unbrearable to watch.He does know how to win a fight, and is probably the best in britian, mightaswell start small and move up.

On the other hand if hasim rahman is on cards, go for broke.

[Tysonbruno]

This fight would be a step backwards he needs a well known name Hasim Rahman is said to be Hayes choice that sounds a better fight to me.I think Warren is just bitter and wanting one of his men to beat Haye because Haye smashed up his boy Enzo

I know people may laugh at this but i give Skelton reasonable chance in this one, Haye's stamina has never been that good, so if Skelton can apply his rough tough style on Haye to good effect he has a chance to wear him down in the 2nd half of the fight and could stop him. Plus Skelton has always shown a pretty good chin so he could out last the early onslaught smothering Haye etc.

PS how the hell did that smiley face get above my post i didn't put it there huh ??

Skelton is pretty one dimensional IMO, we seen him box a little against Williams 2 but apart from that fight he is just a brawler, I fuly expect Haye to wear Skelton down for a late stoppage.

Haye isn't the type of fighter that wears fighters down for the simple reason his stamina just isn't that good. Skelton's style is built on wearing fighters down to take over in the 2nd half. I would like to see how Haye would cope with the rough style of Skelton should Skelton get him past 6th round.

He didn't wear down Mormeck or Fragomeni?

Looks like Haye has signed with Golden Boy and could be fighting Rahman next.

No he didn't wear down Mormeck he caught Mormeck with one shot that turned out his lights, wouldn't say he wore down Mormeck but Mormeck's stamina is also suspect. He did wear out Fragomeni but lets remember Skelton's style is made to wear opponents down in 2nd half of the fight, and because Skelton is much bigger physically it takes a lot of steam out of you when you have a big physcial boxer like Skelton leaning on you. Im not saying Haye can't wear down opponents but that isn't really his style he looks for one big shot to KO his opponents like he has done in majority of his fights. Like i said it will be interesting to see how Haye will cope should Skelton get Haye past the 6th round.

As said the reasons for haye not to take this on are endless, he would now be much better off relocating to america and working his way up through the ranks there rather than fight a couple of bums over here and then get a world title shot cast upon him.

America will love haye that im sure of. cocky, arrogant and packs a hell of a punch.

Whats the point in seeing him beat on ordinary british heavyweights when he can be over in america doing the ground work towards a mega fight with klitschko!!

He doesn't have to got to America.

The fights can be put on early-hours to suit American TV.

iT WOULD BE INTERESTING FROM A FANS POINT OF VIEW.
Haye could well blow Skelton away , or he may be worn down by Skeltons brawling tactics as ICE says.

Personally i think Skelton is an average fighter , but he holds a ranking which is a good reason to take the fight for Haye.

Id go for a KO win inside 6 for Haye.

[NUCLEAR BULL]

you have to think that haye's speed and power will be to much for skelton, matts never had much grace, he's looked half decent at domestic level in there with an overweight williams, flabby john mcdermont, and stunk the place out with sprott........... haye would be nothing more then a good payday for him, hayes to good, skelton would get beat up

i've heard so much garbage from warren over the years, so many big fights that were soppused done only to never happen................. if harrison gets the shot against peter its a disgrace
