Williams v Hide Press conference

Post by jamesmcdonnell »

If I remember rightly, Williams and Hide had a scuffle for a press conference before.....?

However, I don't think they ever fought on the same bill, what was the press conference for in that case, can anyone remember?

Yeah it was hilarious!

HH: Danny.

DW: Yes.

HH: If you wanna go out we'll f*ckin do it now!

DW: Go out where?


Then Hide flips his table over and good old Julius Francis had to get between them, much to the amusment of Vitali.

Hide was partly trying to intimidate Vitali, but when Hide around turned to see Vitali's reaction to his antics, the giant Ukrainian put his finger to his mouth to signify, "shssssh".

Danny was down to fight Harry Senior but got whiplash after an accident on the way to the London Arena and had to pull out.

Thankyou gentleman, as ever the forum is as good a resource as I can find.....

Was it there that Williams claimed to have knocked Hide Sparko in sparring?

yeah i think thats the first time he said it publicly. He may of said it in a boxing magazine before hand or something, but it was the first time i was aware of it.

Agreed there this is a real grudge match I think these 2 and Harrison have had a real slanging contest between the 3 of them, its a real shame all 3 are the wrong side of 30 really.

Yeah I thought Danny mentioning Hide getting cold-cocked in sparring at the press conf set off Hide's wildman routine?

Herbie went stiff as a board from a glancing Vitali right hand - I think the same will happen in the DW fight.

yeah, agree. Hide's chin is non-existent. A stiff Williams jab could floor him.

did vitali even catch him with a shot to knock him out with :-? maybe a glancing jab and that was about it. :lol:

hide started ok in that to he won the 1st rd with his quick punching and movement :D if only that guy had a good chin i reckon he would have been a very good heavyweight indeed. :wink:
