Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Round 11:
Come on, lets have a big final flurry! Jabs fall short from both guys, and Williams digs to the body in a clinch. Good body shots, but a right hand from McDermott staggers him. Williams still putting money in the bank with body shots. Two jabs from Williams, but McDermott rattles in some of his own. McDermott has to gamble now. Williams ducks a jab and puts his own to the body. Short body shots from Williams, but McDermott not doing it. Williams DEDUCTED A POINT for another low blow. Jabs and hooks from Williams as he charges forward. Body shots, and McDermott slumps into the clinch. Uppercut and a hook from Williams. Another POINT DEDUCTED from Williams for pushing in the face after the clinch. KO time for Williams? Crazy scenes here. Jab from Williams, and body shots, and McDermott hanging on. Williams may have edged the round, but losing 2 points? No idea where to put the points!
104-103 Williams. Maybe.

Round 12:
Williams needs a KO in his mind, surely, as McDermott ties up. They swap jabs. Uppercut from McDermott, and huge hooks swung and missed from Williams. Williams' gumshield must be badly fitted, third time. (space) Williams deducted yet another point for spitting out the gumshield. Surely there's no way Williams can take this.
McDermott's round.
113-112 final score.
(Sorry, I accidentally deleted a bit of the last round. Good trading, and both fighters rattled.)
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
That was dodgy refereeing at the end there. Danny was gonna win by a point but the ref decides to deduct 3 points off Danny in the last 2 rounds
Im glad Danny won cuz they tried to rob him again
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Jim Watt has McDermott ahead by 5 points on his card, but Danny Williams' shenanigans may have lost him his belt. McDermott should have finished it in the fifth. Bizarre and compelling fight.
Majority Decision
113-113, 114-111, 114-113
TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Danny Williams!!!!!!!!!!
OMG, he must be the luckiest man in the Goresbrook Leisure Centre tonight. He got away with this one big time! Rematch has to be made. McDermott gutted, and the crowd booing a lot.
Excellent, if strange fight. Williams has the belt, but it's McDermott with his hands in the air.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Cracking RBR as usual mate, I'll have to wait till I can rep you but it's in the post fella. Cracking job.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Saw the last 3 rounds. Williams looked really really bad in those last 3.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
What a fuckin bullshit decision. Great fight though. I thought Williams wouldn't make it out the 5th after he got smoked. Jammy bastard Williams, he should give Mc Dermott an immediate rematch, I had John winning clearly, especially with the 3 points deductions.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Danny is such a fuuckin wierdo!!!
He is the epitome of inconsistancy, I hope for their sakes he has no fans;D
He seems to be made of jelly, whenever he gets caught flush by anyone he wobbles everywhere.
If he gets another title shot, he will only emarrass himself again, coming in fat and what was all that leaning down in the first about.
If you cant stop someone who Skelton sparked in the first you havent got much power.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Danny Williams says he'll vacate: "It's the same referree that robbed me against Michael Sprott. The referee tried to rob me. I was waiting for him to stop punching in the fifth, he didn't. He's a very good fighter. I still think I got it, life is all about motivation. He fought like a warrior. I think I have to vacate, and let people like John take over."
John McDermott isn't moaning at all though, very gracious magnanimous comments in the aftermath: "I think I broke arib in the third round, but I thought I won it. I showed a Warrior's heart and for the first time fought like a real champion. Danny fought really well, and congratulations to him."

Dannys got power as weve seen in the past but he didnt show it tonight
If I were Danny Id go nowhere near John again . He cant get motivated for this level and he just looks really poor. but I cant say hes washed up cuz hes been performing like this on and off since the 1st Julius Francis fight on the Barrera - Llyoyd undercard .
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
This Bhatia is not a bad fighter at all, I'm impressed.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
A few things.
Firstly i dont get Danny at all he was walking foward no jab just looking to bomb waiting too long. When he let his shots go he looked good and in his last few looked a world beater.
He was not motivated and 265 is not a good weight for Danny he should be between 235-245.
Cant take anything from this fight apart from Danny was not motivated and out of shape.
Two more moans firstly McDermott is a disgrace fat out of shape slob who wanted to quit after 3 and didnt deserve the win. And i held Dave Parris in high esteem until the fight he was clearly in Maloneys pocket.

Got to remember he's in with a guy with one win from five, and he is getting caught more than I'd like if I was in the Bhaatia corner. Some decent hooks from the guy in the red trunks, but Bhaatia definitely well in charge.
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
Justice for Williams.
Dave Parris was a disgrace. He must have had dough on fat John.
Also.. Jim Watt was scoring rounds to fat John even though he wasn't throwing ANY punches. Jim's dosh must have been on John too
Re: Danny Williams v John McDermott RBR - 10pm UK Time
I had Mcdermott down by 1 point (apart from the points taken off) so with those Williams shouldnt of won, the last 2 points taken off were harsh I thought (but Williams had been warned all fight) imo a draw. A shame for Mcdermott cos that wouldve given him a much needed (as seen tonight) confidence boost.
Akaash Battia seen him once or twice before, looked good to watch but letting far too many punches get to him at that level of opponent, who i thought did pretty well.
