Danny Williams gets a shot at European Title

http://www.frankwarren.tv/fw4/allnew...from=&ucat=36&

Has anyone seen this European champion fight??

I thought after the Skelton rematch i thought the Val man was next??

nothing definite has been arranged with Valuev. I'm not sure if Danny will win the rematch even, he just doesn't seem to get the idea of getting in decent shape.

It won't happen as he's going to stopped by Skelton next time around.

for his size he was in decent shape last time round. At his height though he can only be so heavy before the fitness level he can reach drops.

Anything over 18 stone and he seriously handicaps himself. Hopefully he's continued to make progress since the last time because a fighter of Danny Williams class (not that I'm saying its very high) will only struggle with the likes of Skelton if he isn't fit.

The worry that gets me is that since he's beaten both Skelton and Harrison in pretty craqppy condition that he will get complacent and go back to the pies... ::**

he sure likes his pies.

I agree with you, I can't see him coming over complacency after those wins. He's definitely way above Skelton on ability, but if he can't get the motivation to get in shape against the best in the division (Vit) I don't know what can.

the worst thing is danny could of made a fight out of that, he let himself go post Tyson and in training tried to gain mass assuming that 'bigger equals better'.

When he's lighter he actually has decent head movement... he was to big to use it against Klitscho and most of the mass he gained for it wasn't work muscle.

you can have all teh weight you want danny but if you can't unload it in a punch and the mass prevents you being in a position to even get a shot in then all its good for is making you tired.

What do you think is his problem; is it motivation, laziness, stupidity or just a genuine eating disorder that's wrong with him?

I don't think you can really put a name on it, split personalitys or something... the guys just a genuine head case... ;)
