Well thats the way they work somebody like Khan up the ranks to train him, he wont be ready for a title fight for over a year yet and they have to keep him fighting till then.
But you really cant moan about Williams and Skeltons fight?
What a fantastic display by 2 big men and to keep that pace up for 12 rounds was a truly great fight to watch. ____________________ "Its Better To Burn Out Than Fade Away!!!!!!" "Lifes a bitch and then you Die"

Bah, they all sucketh in comparison to Kirkland Laing!
(I know, it's a small tangent but mention of boxing made me recall the awe I felt as I watched him box. Such a shame he never fulfilled his potential ) ____________________ "when i look down i just miss all the good stuff

It would've been good to see Khan against someone who can throw a punch for once, but I get the feeling they're not in a hurry. Far too much easy money in putting him up against these bums to worry about any decent fights yet.
The Skelton/Williams fight was good if a little weird. Although I did think Skelton took the piss a bit at times (didn't realise he was ex-K1 - now it makes sense) I would've said it was his fight with the exception of the last round. If Danny didn't slip then he would've had the knockout (Skelton could barely stand up even with no punches being thrown at him) so in that sense the result was a bit fairer, it was definitely an 8-10 round.
On the whole a much better way to spend a couple of hours than watching the joke that was the Audley Harrison fight. I really hope Harrison has seen the last of his TV time because the guy isn't even a boxer. ____________________ Photos and that |

Must admit in my time i’ve seen some great fights, I used to like Benn for his heart in the ring, the way Tyson ‘made’ a guy box. Naseems showmanship, Eubanks skill with his class, Holyfields presence etc….
No I don’t bother watching, Williams makes me laugh, lanky twat ____________________ Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

The opposition is getting better as it should, far too many people don't realise that although he's good he still has a learning curve just like EVERYONE else.
Some people seem to want to see him square upto Ricky Hatton now. |
That's what i was trying to say in my post but i couldn't be bothered to get the figures. ____________________ "Its Better To Burn Out Than Fade Away!!!!!!" "Lifes a bitch and then you Die"
