If Skelton fought Briggs

[Max Molyneux]

If he beats Harrison and got a shot at Briggs who would you favour?

If Briggs can win a belt, then it's not out of the question Skelton could. Hell if Danny wasn't so out of shape at 20 st could.

Skelton would grind Briggs down easily IMO.

[Twinkle Toes]

I agree, Skelton would likely be far too busy for a lacklustre Briggs.

But there is always a chance that Skelton could get bombed out by the heavy handed Briggs.

If Skelton could survive the inevitable early onslaught I think he'd stop Briggs in the middle to late rounds. I suggest you guys watch the whole of Briggs v Liyakovich before making your pick, Briggs did next to nothing for the first 11 rounds and was still blowing out of his arse for the majority of the fight.

You'd have to consider Briggs an earlier danger than the current Danny Williams but still think Skelton is capable of surviving the early onslaught.

Sugar Ray Skelton to box from the outside?? Nah, Skelton to maul him to defeat in 8 rounds. Warren has said he's trying to get a shot at Briggs for the Skelton v Harrison winner, which I take to mean Harrison if he wins.

Williams in the first fight showed Skeleton is very open to been hurt early. Skeleton wont be outmuscling Briggs the way he did Sprott. He can outwork Briggs though, but we've seen Briggs carrys that power late.

I'd think Skelton would have a better shot of beating Briggs than Williams would.
Skelton has a stronger mental makeup, Williams may crumble before the fight!

Blowing hard as you push over a dead body does not qualify as carrying power late.
