He goes from a career nearly lowest weight to almost the highest in his career. He gets one of his best wins at 228 and then skyrockets to 270 his next fight. WTF? 42 f#cking pounds! Well good luck to him. He should beat this Platov guy but I really could care less. Danny is too inconsistant.
Weight is hard for some people to manage. .. I kinda like Danny Williams, saw film on that match at 228.. looked very good .Quote:

My worry is that he will go in with a loser's mindset as he did against Fraudley, and get beaten not because he can't win but because he's not prepared enough.Quote:

Yup but if you look at maxboxings schedule, Platov was supposed to fight someone else.Quote:

He's not in shape for this one so most likely gets put on the canvas four or five times and stopped in five or six rounds.
But the only thing you can say for certain with Danny Williams is that you cannot say anything for certain.
ARE YOU CERTAIN YOU CAN SAY THAT BILBO ;D ;D ;DQuote:

Danny could have been so much better, not a world beater, but should have beaten most of the guys he's lost to. At the weight he's in, and if the other guy has half a brain cell, he'll get outboxed. He got outboxed by Skelton!!! in the second fight
and will again as long as the other guy isn't in a zimmer frame.
about a month ago danny said that he was in great shape, had kept training since his win over gammer and that he was a stone lighter now then in the gammer fight, he weighed 16'8 for gammer so that ment he'd be around 15 an ahalf now.............................. YET HE'S WEIGHED IN OVER 19??????? i like danny, have met the man, he's a real nice fella........... but why keep saying these things then sham yourself on the scales, he said similar things before the 2nd skelton fight and turned up 20'8 and couldn't move in the ring
i hope he wins but all these up and down with his weight can't be good to him
Williams is finished. He only beat Gammer last time because after a couple of rounds he realised Gammer was absolute pony and he (Williams) couldn't lose even if he tried.
Think they get pretty good money in Germany.
270? Danny will plod about for a few rounds till Platov comes out of his shell.
The fight was actually ruled a No contest in the fourth round, and according to the report on www.fightnews.com it sounds like Danny Williams was actually the main man during the fight, with the ref saving Platov by ruling the cut too bad to continue.
St. Jakobshalle, Basel, Switzerland:
An IBF Intercontinental heavyweight clash between Oleg Platov (26-1, 22 KOs) and former world title challenger and Mike Tyson conqueror Danny Williams (37-6, 30 KOs) ended in a no contest. Both fighters landed big shots in round one, but Platov was the more effective. Platov was cut over the left eye by a head clash in round two and was bothered by blood in his eye, even taking a knee at one point. Platov the fought back hard for the rest of the round. Williams came on in rounds three and four, but the cut continued to get worse and the bout was stopped by referee Earl Brown at 2:15 of round four.
Sounds more to me like Platov was doing well till he got cut from the headbutt, and was distracted from then on. Ill have to see the fight though. Probably would have been competitive if it wasnt for the headbutt.Quote:

I got disapoited once again from today boxing. As Danny should won that fight by a TKO.
As they are talking already for a rematch but dont know it will be good or bad for Danny cause this Platov guy got some power to KO too as he is faster then Danny in feets but Danny got much more expirience..
I think that Danny Williams would love to get back at this guy again and actually get a win this time. If he was looking as good as you mention night, is Platov going to want to go back in with him?
Jax ;D How goes it you mental fucker ;D Do a dance jax O0Quote:

I can see where you're coming from on this one, and I think that the future of David Haye in the heavies will be interesting to follow. He has the speed and athleticism, and we know his chin was alright in the cruisers, but I wonder whether he will succeed and show the way for heavies to be quick, athletic and not solely based on strength.Quote:
