Ok skel u got me. Not quite right I agree, let's change the 10000 a week to a couple of grand. As the great burt sugar would say, don't Ruin a good story with the truth. And just for the record, for me u are the best poster on here full stop. Ok bilbo gets it for most time spent on here, but that's poor him, but if u want no nonsense, honest, no bullshit opinion then ur the man on here, no question, undisputed. No shit, every man who reads this post I ask u to declare ur ur respect for skel, hell I should change this thread too a skel appreciation thread.

When he decided to switch to boxing he had a three year contract with (I think) Crystal Palace or another Championship club on the table that would have paid him that kind of dough and of course the potential for more contracts after that one. He actually walked away from that. He's played at a lower level since he made the switch to make some money as he will have made effectively nothing from his boxing career so far. I read he's fighting Frankie Gavin next, that's not a smart fight for him and it appears he'll never make a level where he'll earn decent money from boxing, so you can only applaud what he's done.

Average wage for championship player is 3500 and that is now not 4 years ago but Woodhouse coming from a team in the third tier was going to sign and earn between 15-20 a week? Not a chance mate.

Add to the that the only reason the average is that high is all the players on 30k plus coming down from the premiership take them away and it is alot lower and would of been even lower 4 years ago.

I'm pretty sure he was playing for Sheffield United at the time, definitely somebody in the Championship, and he was one of the top earners at the club then had an even better contract offer. When you consider he turned down a the best part of a million to earn a few thousand in let's face it an uncertain career you've got to give him credit.

He was playing for Grimsby Town mate they were in the bottom division and he was going nowhere, like I said he was good when he was younger but he was dropping and dropping and obviously new he couldn't cut it for whatever reason as a top footballer, you telling me he turned down a 15-20k a week 3/4 year contract to lace up the gloves for the first time at 26 years old no chance.

He was the engine room at Sheffield United, sold on to Birmingham for a million. Saw Him a couple of weeks ago playing for Sheffield FC, nice run out. Is doing better than I thought He would, good luck to Him.

He is on the Warren September Mag 7 bill against the fighter who did not make the Olympics, Curtis will lose that fight.

I declare my respect for Skel, but I'm trying to work out, was I being complimented or insulted by you?
