*SKELTON-SAM POSTPONED*
Matt Skelton's European heavyweight title challenge against Sinan Samil Sam has been postponed because of an injury to the Turk.

The fight was due to take place in Istanbul on May 30.

However, it will now be arranged at a later date when Sam has fully recovered.
Skelton was looking to get back to winning ways after losing a WBA world title fight against Ruslan Chagaev on points earlier this year.

" I am disappointed that the fight has been postponed after putting in lots of hard work in the gym, but I am looking forward to the re-arranged date and proving to everyone that I can beat Sam and go on to a second shot at the world title," said Skelton.

Well i hear that Vitali Klitschko is finally going ahead with his fight with Sam Peter so at least we'll have one date that we can rely on to come off with 100% certainty.

No wonder TV networks are reluctant to invest in boxing given the recent debacles

Arthur fight postponed

Opponents pulling out on the Froch bill

and now the Skelton fight postponed

I love it, but being a boxing fan is a frustrating experience sometimes.
