I've seen him in the pre fight interviews and in some of the American reports he is annouced as Danny Williams manager.

Is this right , i've never heard of him before the Tyson fight?

This has been discussed before...I don't think we found out much about him, did we?

He seemed to have come from nowhere, certainly. Mind you, he called the fight spot on.

I must have missed the last thread on him, hopefully he's an alright person. Danny doesn't seem to be the type to be gullible

In an interview Williams said he had organised sparring partners and also driven him around while they were over in the US.

yeah, he's his manager. As 007 said, he's brought in sparring partners, drove Danny around and also set up his various media spots after the big win.

I know the 3 youngest: Lan, Hal and Front. Li'l sis Lan is a hottie, but alas is taken - she's engaged to some bloke named Sale. (I think his first name may be Clarence.)

A more pertinent question for you might be 'What is a dictionary?'

a lanyard is a knot, or something to do with ropes and ships I think....

A halyard? Never heard of it.

Actually that's a halyard- something to do with raising a sail

A lanyard is a short rope used as a fastening or handle
