    imo Danny Williams is only effective when at around 18st. When he's around 19's he's useless....looks clumsy...slow and ponderous and also easy to bust up.

    Williams seems obsessed with coming in at the weight he did against either Tyson or Klitschko..... seems he has blown it and landed in between.

    Just seen Spencer Fearons facebook status ''Danny Williams is going to win prizefighter it's been years since i've seen him in such good nick''

    I don't think 19 stone is a good weight for him at all. He fluctuates to much for my liking and i sometimes feel that's someone who isn't sure of what they should be. I don't see him winning it after reading this weight.

    Was he really 228 for the Gammer fight..... or is it a typo?

    Whatever he was, he was in damn good nick for that one, probably 240-245ish is about right for him.

    I can't remember the weight for Gammer but he did look good that night in physique and in the fight. Since then he hasn't impressed me....and he's had balance issues as well especially in the Mcdermott First Fight.

    Still think Danny will win it. Looks in decent shape from the picture.

    He was saying in the paper today that he had brought his body fat down from 30% to 11% so should be in decent shape even if heavy. Still fancy Harrison for the win tho.

    Danny may be weighing heavy, but apparently he has lost a lot of body fat (from around 30%(!!!) to about 10% apparently). Hopefully it shows :good

    I really don't want Harrison to win or even Williams for that matter.

    Who is the best outside bet for this would you say? I don't know much about any of the others besides Gammer and Belshaw and I really can't see him doing it.

    Coleman Barrett is undefeated in 8 but he could have been fighting bin men for all I know.

    I would say Gammar. Belshaw is useless imo. Not seen Coleman before or the others. Colemans weight makes me think he is too small.
