Looking forward to this one, hope it lives up to it.
Skelton had a 15lb weight advantage in the first fight...just about 5lbs this time. Skelton is pretty strong but perhaps Sprott will be on more of a level playing field this time?
I still worry about Skelton's inactivity.

I had a go around on this fight with me mate. If it took place in a pub, Skelton wins. But with gloves I think Sprott wins the decision.

Sprott looks in good shape

I've been backing Skelton for a late TKO, but I expect Sprott to have the early running. That'll be the most dangerous time for Skelton.

Feel-out round that one, tough to score.
Weird to think Skelton's only been boxing for 5 years.
Also weird coming from the lighter guys to this...the HW punches are so slow, but heavy. Each shots is like whoooooosh, whooooosh.

Skelton is cutting of the ring, dictating the pace and sprott is too small to get inside...
Skelton will win this fight without too many problems
Smith

Nadals cool as fuck, Murrays the boy though:yep
Anyway, back to fight, theyre just feeling each other up:yep right now

DamonD
07-14-2007, 05:30 PM
Second round gone, jabfest...lots of respect for each other, possibly a bit too much at the moment.
Some good in-close mauling and grappling near the end though, might get the blood pumping. Not much of a fight so far.

ummm are you drunk, this is the heaviest sprott has been in his entire career

skelton is completely dominant in the third round.
sprott needs to be aggressive, or he is finished.

Ummmm, are you drunk? It may be his heaviest but he is in far better condition than he was for the Fraudley fight!!!
He's added muscle fool (in case you didnt know muscle weighs more than fat):blurp
DamonD
07-14-2007, 05:35 PM
Tastier 3rd, some bad blood building up now.
Skelton is keeping his guard real high, respects Sprott's countering ability.
The boxing is starting to go out the window...

this fight sounds boring the loser of it should be banded from boxing like briggs that over weight loser that he was
SevenSamurai
07-14-2007, 05:37 PM
that sprott left hook looks sweet. It depends on skeltons chin, whether it makes a difference. Round 4 Sprott still being smothered though by Skelton.
SevenSamurai
07-14-2007, 05:38 PM
i think we can see skelton has sprotts number, the fight is so boring though i am not sure i can it any longer.
Skelton should get a UD.
DamonD
07-14-2007, 05:39 PM
Sprott landing the odd nice snappy jab and counter, but Skelton is just smacking him with that right to the ribs over and over. It's making me wince.
Danny Ocean
07-14-2007, 05:39 PM

Don't Forget That Sprott Has A Bionic Left Hook From Electrocuting Himself
Smith
07-14-2007, 05:42 PM
Bad blood at the end of that round
DamonD
07-14-2007, 05:43 PM
Nice long right from Sprott, landed flush, but everyone knows Skelton is more durable and he doesn't stagger. He's smothering Sprott on the inside and scoring with 1-2s, Sprott needs to box.

ummmm, dumbass if you havent noticed sprott isnt doing shit, how is he fit
Danny Ocean
07-14-2007, 05:46 PM
either way sprott needs to show some desire
DamonD
07-14-2007, 05:47 PM
Blood from Skelton's nose, but apart from that he doesn't look bothered.
Sprott seems to be looking for the Audley Killer counter, but while he's occasionally able to land it it just doesn't have the same effect on Skelton. And while Audley has almost no inside game at all, Sprott is losing rounds as Skelton whacks him repeatedly around the body.
Smith
07-14-2007, 05:47 PM
ummmm, dumbass if you havent noticed sprott isnt doing shit, how is he fit
FOR FUCK SAKE!!! YOU FUCKING IDIOT
I never said he was really fit, i said he looked good, i.e in good PHYSICAL shape externally! If you are so fucking dumb to understand this, re-read this post a couple more times, you might catch on.

skelton will take him into deep water late on and stop him

DamonD

First two minutes, Skelton seemed to be taking a breather...but Sprott couldn't work the jab enough. Then Skelton turned him round in the corner and landed several heavy shots, and probably won the round from that.
Danny Ocean

Yeah i am sure ****** will be able to convince one of the belt holders to take on skelton after he gets his UD by 5-6 rounds. Skelton would be an easy defence for any of the champions. ****** would have to convince that it would sell tickets though...skelton is not a great advert for boxing.
DamonD
07-14-2007, 05:55 PM
Real poor showing from Sprott so far. Skelton must be rusty, but Sprott is plain not working hard enough to push that.
I have Skelton 7-1 up.

8-1 Skelton.
Sprott's left ribs must be killing him with all those body shots he's taking.
And yet he's still just trying for the big hail mary punch all the time...
Smith
07-14-2007, 06:02 PM
Skeltn would be awkward as fuck for Chageav & ibragimov. They wouldnt know what to do, he ain't no boxer
DamonD
07-14-2007, 06:03 PM
Crowd booing and slow-clapping.
Skelton fighting his usual fight, Sprott seems to have no gameplan apart from "hopeful hail mary counter" and is getting pounded to the body over and over. Lots of grappling.
9-1 Skelton.
SevenSamurai

sprotts corner is funny:

I've got that 119-109 for Skelton. He did all the work, continual inside shots, kept moving forward. Sprott, just plain bad.

The British Heavyweight market isn't looking terribly exciting.
At least when Audley fights there are often interesting outcomes.....

07-14-2007, 06:12 PM
Skelton should not get too much flak for this, he dominated and made all the running. It takes two to tango and Sprott just seemed so one-dimensional, and that really hurt it overall.

Chalk and Cheese, from the intense excitement of Khan/Limond to that excuse for a boxing match.
This British Heavyweight tournament has been excruciating, Not one of them has managed to put 2 decent performances in a row between them, Sprott, Skelton, Williams, Harrison, pity Danny was such a tub of lard, he actually had some talent and heart to go with it.
DamonD
07-14-2007, 06:32 PM
21-1 for Skelton, 30-11 for Sprott now.
