Matt Skelton vs John McDermott this weekend

[Coco]

Apparently Big John has a dietician and turned a lot of fat into muscle!

[TopGun]

Big John will win this. I see McMerdomott rivival and he will go on to win a Bristish title. Be good to see him against Dillian Whyte

[ScottDetonator]

I fancy Skelton to win inside 5 rounds. If McDermott has a fast start like he did against Price, I think Skelton will stop him early. John does look in good shape though. A tasty little tussle.

fat wont turn into muscle and they are 2 diff entities, he lost fat and gained muscle

I think thats what john said in the clip. Marc was quoting him.

Regardless of whether he's lost weight or not, McDermott was sucking his belly in throughout that, and still looked soft. I wouldn't guess he's in any better shape than I am ;) (this by no means implies that I could beat him!)

True, Skelton looked in good shape (no homo)

If you think Big John will win you could do worse than take the 8/1 odds on him winning on points.

[Chambers2]

I was at the first fight when BIG Matt mullered him, but I can see this fight going the other way this time.

McDermott is more battle hardened and BIG Matt looks to be [finally] declining

I'm sorry, but my english is not so good, and sometimes I've some difficulties to understand. I think that they say McDermott 18.4 st and Skelton 17.1 st. Is it true?

18st4lbs and 17st1lb.

14lbs in a stone so if we did indeed both hear correctly then:-

McDermott - 256
Skelton - 239

So McDermott's dietician has managed to get him to put 12lbs on since his last fight. Bloke deserves a medal. I have to concede he did look in better shape than I have seen him for a long while so I may have heard the weight wrong so I'll take it back if he has in fact maintained a weight of around 244 (which is what he weighed in at for his previous fight.)

Heads up guys it's on now channel 200 on sky

[iamasadlittleboy]

Colin Hart just say "Larry Obarmy"?

[jameswilson]

Skelton still with Iggy Pop in his corner.

[jameswilson]

McDermott did indeed weigh in at 18 stone 4 which means the dietician tales were a load of rubbish. He has put 12lbs on since his last fight.

*SPOILER/RBR*




I have it 1 each after 2 rounds. Skelton looked ok in the second but he doesn't half come in with his head.

[crusader]

Both looking tired after only 3 rounds; McD looks especially winded.

They have been setting a decent pace to be fair. Not that skilful but certainly an ok fight.

I know there is no chance of it happening but I do wish the winner of this and Audley would fight in something like 10 weeks time.

39-38 McDermott

Gawd. Give these boys oxygen pronto!!

[Matt Teague]

Nothing much in this fight, still very close, macdermotts punches swaying low at times

[iamasadlittleboy]

Very scrappy now

I reckon Audley would fancy that if the money was fair

I've been hoping for that as well. I hope the winner calls him out.
