I've heard Danny is well up for the fight and down to 15 stone already.
Oh... we haven't had that press release yet.

Will Williams be up for that sort of money? There aren't really any big money fights out there for him right now.
What crap money for a British title fight and Heavyweight one at that.
Michael Gomez got about 16k for his British title challenge to Alex Arthur so maybe this is pretty standard for British title bouts ?
I think Williams should take this bout, and if he think's he is above this level then he is being stupid. He has been knocked down to this level, his own fault.
As for McDonnell he could be really putting Danny to work in the gym but if Wiliams goes homes every night and eats Kipling Cakes etc then who is to blame?
As Nick says it must be the going rate.
I agree he should take it as it's the right come back fight but would have to see it first.

Did Mc Donnell pay for the surgery?

Please excuse my ignorance but are you the same guy who wrote the Gammer piece in BM????...if so, well done..it was a good read.

If McDonnell had any morals and wasn't a money grabbing little tosser he'd have dumped Williams long ago. He's considered a joke these day through his constant bullshit where Williams' conditioning is concerned.

When I saw there was a Scott Gammer piece, I thought "I wonder how much will copy that beautifully written piece of poetry that was the fight report over at BBN".... However, fair do's safe to say he copies f all of it and it was nice to read such a report, focusing more on the aftermath than the fight itself.
Do you know if any scribe was there that night, cause I didn't see any.
