I thought Mirovic was noew tied to Don King?

Don has been using the tactic of signing up just about every heavy in the top 50, a tactic he often uses when he loses direct control of the heavyweight crown/big players.

I think you're thinking of Kali Mehan, Terry.

I would have prefered Long but Mirovic likes a rumble himself so this could be fun for a couple of rounds.

At least someone with a bit of size on him !

Skelton has no power really and Bob is a big fat truck !

50.50 ?.

Good shout Kilburn, thought it seemed a little strange. Nice one

Not sure if "Big" Bob Mirovic has done anything to deserve a second shot at a real title, but from a fans point of view this may turn out more entertaining than Skelton V Long. IMO.

Mirovic is no test at all.

He was outpointed by a geriatric Joe Bugner.

Just because Danny W was sleepwalking against him doesn't make Fat Bob a fighter.

If Skelton doesn't win in 4/5 it's a very bad show.

Williams did beat Mivrovic in 4 rounds, Mehan was stopped in 1 round?

Come on, Big Bob lost to Bugner - Yes Long has a few shocking defeats, but IMO I think Long vsSkelton is far more competitive than Skelton vs Mivrovic.

Mivrovic looked okay for a few rounds against a very out of sorts Williams, so did N'Gou. Long battled Williams for 12 hard fought rounds.

[Big Red Meat Axe]

In his defence Bob Mirovic has improved since his loss to Joe Bugner. He also recetly took Valuev the distance. He will put up a good fight for as long as it goes.

Anyone know if this fight would be shown in Australia?

After giving Mirovic a very low blow and the ref not giving Mirovic any time to recoup. Yeah he won.
