    Default David Haye Vs Matt Skelton???

    Seem Haye seem to be struggling to find a decent HW to fight he could do a lot worse than Skelton who has fought a few of top 15 rated blokes and has never been stopped.

    He also gave a good acount of him self in his wba title fight which was a lot closer than most expected and his name is recognisable to boxing insiders.


    Like i said Haye could fight a lot worse fighters than Skelton.At least with him we know what we are getting.

    don't think Skelton would be a good fight for him, I could see him taking Hayes power and wearing him down by clinching and leaning on him then possibly stopping him late on

    i think it would go the other way with Haye outboxing Skelton and stopping him late.

    yeah it could do but I just can't see Haye(or anyone) looking good against Skelton, I think he should take the Johnson fight, hard fight but he'll get more credit than he would for beating Skelton

    You only fight Matt Skelton if you have to or he has a title you want.

    None of those apply to Haye, best left alone.

    He wont fight Skelton, Warren offered him 600k to fight Skelton turned it donw because of his low ranking in world terms, also i cant see him working with Warren again.

    Has he made any offers to Chris Arreola yet?

    To me that would make the most sense as the guy is quite well known considering he is a prospect and has been on HBO, and take into account that he was looking for an opponent in November, shoul be easy to be made.

    Someone on here also said they have sparred a bit Haye and Arreola and Haye got the better of things?

    I don't know of their sparring history, but Arreola will need to learn quick to keep his right hand up, that's the biggest flaw in his game IMO, Arreola is very sloppy, but his power is very real would be a great fight.

    Haye needs to fight a top Yank in the US or London to get the Wlad fight

    Skelton would not help him

    Way to dangerous for Haye at this early stage of his HW life.Same goes for Arreola as well.

    Would be a great fight though IMO.
