Haye laughs off Skelton offer

[Fenster]

Who exactly is this top 10 fighter they are lining up? Rahman seems set with Toney, suppose Sultan and Maskaev are available, then you have Chagaev/Valuev/Thompson/both klitchkps/Peter tied up, Povetkin won't risk his status. Most of the guys left after that aren't leaps and bounds ahead of Skelton, and after all Bonin was miraculously ranked top 10 by WBC. I just hope the unnecasary insulting of a respectful guy like Skelton is backed up by a real fight, and not this eerie feeling I'm having that he's lining up ancient Hollyfield.

Holyfield isn't in any top 10 though is he? That sure would be pretty sick, but can't see it.

Skelton is a good guy but he's ALWAYS in boring fights. The last thing Haye needs after all the hype is a terrible ugly start. Plus I doubt the Americans would be satisfied with him. And most importantly a Skelton fight would mean dealing with Warren.. which seems the farthest thing from their minds
