Matt Skelton
I watched Matt Skelton retain his British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles last night [on Sky, not at the actual venue], by stopping Keith Long in the final round.
I am interested to hear what other people think of Skelton. I think he is extremely strong with a crude style and I like him. However, I think when he steps up in class he will be found to be to one-dimensional and will be picked apart. Ian. |

I missed the fight last night (as always the lure of going night clubbing was too strong - I wish they would put boxing back on a saturday night) but I like Skelton. He has real power but little natural ability. He's one of those who can give and take hard punches but his style is not hard to work out at all. He is a decent domestic and European boxer but at world level, in there with the best, he would struggle.
