Skelton v Williams fight in doubt

According to the bbc website this fight is a doubt as Skelton has not signed his contract.

Skelton is looking for more money for the fight, not surprising really as williams is gonna end his run if they do fight so he may as well get as much as he can now.

Skelton will sign - Frank will make him an offer he can't refuse. Can't afford anymore ITV cockups..

Skelton knows the pressure that Frank is under to provide and he'll hang on for every last penny. You can't blame him really, as long as he signs in the end I couldn't give a toss how much he gets paid

Surely if its not for the british title its not in Skelton best interest.
I imagine he wants a lonsdale belt before moving upwards.

Pay the man whatever he wants, Williams should do this fight for peanuts after pulling out last time.

good greaf ITV must be getting fed up of boxing there can be no other sport which is so good for testing the patiants of TV companys I hope they can sort something out though.

Hopefully Skelton holds out for a really big payday. He knows that SN need to put this show on for ITV and can make them sweat.

If this fight doesn't happen, we'll have to listen to Danny talk a lot more smack about Skelton chickening out of the fight.

The last time they were suppose to fight and Williamss pulled out and Skelton said he wasnt going to give another chance to Williams to fight him, maybe Skelton said he'd give him another shot and now Skelton is going to pull out

Danny says he's taking less pay for it on his official site.
