AUDLEY HARRISON V DANNY WILLIAMS - FINAL PREDICTIONS
Posted: 10 Dec 2005, 13:12
Tonight's contest is gonna be great for boxing. Live on ITV and a heavyweight clash that's got the nation talking.
Audley's in really good shape, and looking sharp, by all accounts. He's got great boxing skills, an Olympic gold medal to back up his amateur credentials. OK, his pro career has been lacklustre so far, but his time in the USA will have toughened him up a bit, despite what some people think.
Danny is heavy (again) and the shorter man. However, he is immensely strong, and very talented too. But he was beaten up by Klitschko, and mentally unstable when he gets into the ring. Having said that, wins against Mike Tyson show he can get up for the big occasion, and against Tyson & Mark Potter, he showed how tough he is.
Thinking logically, one would expect a taller, fresher and improved Audley Harrison to beat Williams, but there's a huge question mark over his grit and true heart in an intense battle, which Williams should provide.
I've got a funny feeling that Danny will expose Audley tonight. Danny will take a few and have some rocky moments but he'll come through to wear Audley down and stop him.
Williams in nine.
