Williams will do another job on Sprott. I stupidly picked Sprott last time despite the fact that he's never fought beyond 8 rounds and doesn't really have anything to hurt Danny with.

I've never gone against Williams but I'm going to the bookies and sticking a tenner on Sprott. I've watched tapes over and over of Williams and Sprott's last 6 fights (including both their fights). My main concern is that at some point Danny is going to land big which could always spell curtains for Sprott.

But, providing Sprott has retained the same self-belief that he had before being KO'd last time I think he wins this fight and suprises everyone.

Yes, this fight is still very interesting. First time a put it down to a below par Williams (ring rust, underestimating Sprott). However, it was still a dominant victory. I expected the rematch to be more one-sided than the first (cause I still don't think Sprott is a much better fighter than the first time they met).

Of course, this didn't turn out to be the case. I think Danny has always been happiest when with MacDonnell and was wrong to give him the elbow when he did. I'm hoping that Sprott vs Williams III turns out how I expected Sprott vs Williams II would have been (not, that I hjave anything against Sprott - I just think Danny has more ability). Will it though, I'm really not sure anymore. I've got Danny wrong so many times now, I just don't know with him anymore.

Its worth a trip to Coral's.
