Williams stops and thinks too much.

He wont whether the storm, but we might see him score a flash knockdown.

Could be an exciting brawl with both fighters down.

Tyson wins with body shots.

Danny should be watching the first round of the Douglas/Tyson fight EVERY day. That's what he needs to do - JAB, JAB, JAB - then start throwing the right hand in the last minute of the round.

If he doesn't take my advice, he's done for!! :D :D

Little birdy told me Danny was working on avoiding right hands early on but after a few adjustments sorted it out.

Yes, Danny can be static but he's been working on moving to the right and left, using a very strong jab and keeping Tyson off balance, then starting to use the right hand.

If you watch Tyson he continually goes to dip to the left, so if you feint the jab and slot the right hand where Tyson's head is going to go, you'll catch him. That's how Lennox splatted him!

Tyson's shot and I can see Williams beating him up like Douglas did!

I do.

He hasnt impressed in his last 6 fights.

Williams has never impressed me. Never been that good basically.

One thing Tyson has is a good chin, no way can Williams stop him early. Lewis, Holyfield and Douglas had to batter him senseless before stopping him no way he is getting sparked by Williams.

for what it's worth i thought he looked sharp in the Draskovic fight. He did Draskovic in a round, where Audley went to an 8 round points decision. But i dont think the motivation has been there for a while. It's demoralising when he's still fighting at british level when he knows he is better. Fighting Tyson is a dream come true, and he'll come in the best physical condition....it's been along time since he's done that.

Willliams isn't shot physically, he's taken very little punishment in his career. Mentally, who knows.

As I said in my EXCELLENT preview at maxboxing (plug plug), the fact that Tyson has a world class chin on him, makes it hard for Danny to win.

This Williams is SHOT theorum is total nonsense.

He's 31 and been stopped once. Never been beaten up as such. His problem has always been mental, ALWAYS, so no change there and therefore he can't be SHOT if he's always been the same.

He looked SHARP against Draskovic (or whatever the fellas name is). He looked confident enough a week ago on Ringside when interviewed. He looks in good shape too.

I'm getting butterflies now. 5 days to go!

yeah, what bullshit! Danny took him out in the 4th round, not the 5th! Lying mofo. :lol:


LOL, you could see this guy in tears after Danny won, it's hilarious. Just look out for it, it's just before his now fiance Zoe hugs him and says how proud she is etc... Dwigth Yarde was in tears lol!
