Nice to see Warren threw in a bit of comedy to tonights show in the form of the Danny Williams fight.

Just awful. It was like fighting a dead torso on wobbly legs. The unorthodox 'round the back' punch by the bum was funny though.

On a side note, if I hear Adam Smith say the words Kostya (tttt) Tszyu again I will commit murder. Idiot.

Oh and Sky putting Calzaghe in the top 10 pound for pound fighters in the world! Don't make me laugh! I almost coughed up my pizza!

Yeah, that was hilarious. Bet Hatton and Harrison were 11 and 12.

Fighting against a mauling, brawling opponent with no obvious boxing ability was poor preparation for the Matt Skelton fight

The only thing that saved it from being an absoulte mimatch was Williams being so shit. After seeing his crappy effort on Saturday against that no hoper can you now believe a lot of people were picking him to beat Klitschko? HA HA!

Williams is shite, got Tyson at the right time and has done nothing else of note.

All this nonsense about his head not being right, while he does have obvious mental problems which I put down to losing concentration more than this lack of confidence they keep claiming - I just dont think he's that good at the end of the day.

Anyone decent would have clocked that guy in 30-60 seconds.

I think Skelton is going to batter him.

Williams is as good as the fighter who had that epic trilogy with Sprott

and got hammered in 6 by Samil Sam , and the non effort against Klitschko.

They can talk all they want about him being much better in the gym etc. but part of being a good fighter is being able to perform when you need to and he just doesn't.

Lastly, his weight is a joke. He was 18 stone 12 on Saturday night. While he may have trained for plenty of stamina his bodyfat % is way too high. He's coming into fights fat.

If he's serious they should get a nutritionist on board and get him in real shape. Being a heavyweight is not licence to pig out on KFC constantly!

He was how heavy? He looked quite trim to me and seemed to be moving well. I was sixty yards away, mind, but even so. If he was actually that heavy I'm surprised...

Yep that was his weight. By the look of him I guess he could lose a stone in weight just by eating properly and contiuining his training. There's no way a guy should be 6'2 and 19 stone if he's in shape.

From what he said in the post fight interview about 'going to war', I don't think there's gonna be a lot of tact in this fight or any sign of the much vaunted boxing ability he's supposed to have. With Skelton, obviously, we know what to expect.

Prepare for maulfest of the century.

the undercard was just a series of mismatches, (barnes aside) really dissapointing, also why on Brtiish boxing's biggest fight in a decade did we have corner pads advertising the friggin Moscow bid for the Olympics.

fornicate me, that pissed me off.

London or nothing at all, surely money shouldnt buy everything on such an occasion. I was disgusted by this.

However the main event made such feelings seem unimportant.

fornicating awesome atmosphere, and a cracking fight, one experience ill take to the grave

I was wondering about that too. Takes the piss a wee bit.
