OK, so the coverage is starting now, and we're looking at a group of Williams and McDermott's greatest hits. Williams's greatest being significantly better...
John McDermott always looks a little shy, a little timid for my liking, but then I'm not sure he's capable of looking really angry and hard. Mcdermott gets a good response from the crowd, and as he does his ringwalk, he keeps his eyes forward, but he may just look like too much of a nice guy to really intimidate opponents.
He punches the air to gee up his fans, and himself a little too.
Danny comes out in a silver vest...no hood or robe like McDermott. He looks proud of who he is, and looks in pretty good shape, and his little beard makes him look even harder. His eyes fixed too... but much more of an entourage. Next time its fight time.
I don't think John McDermott has ever looked ripped, but there's no doubt he'll have prepared as best as he possibly can. As for Danny, there's a hint of definition on his abs...which have been frequently noticable by their absence. Looking forward to this one.
Round 1:
Williams looks to throw big right early doors, and McDermott cagey, looking to use the jab and keep Williams at distance. McDermott lands a decent jab, but Williams comes straight through and starts work to the body, and short punches in the clinch. Another clinch, and the ref breaks them up. The ref has a word already...not a good sighn. Left hook clips McDermott. Williams looking for the bingo punch already. McDermott with a jab, and misses narrowly with an uppercut.
