    Shame on Aussie boxing if they licence this. Danny is a danger to himself and has absolutely nothing left.

    If you ignore the first part of this news artical the last paragraph confirms the fight.

    The Brit forum gives Alex Leapai no chance of beating Sexton or Rogan....and almost acted like it was an insult calling them out.

    Leapai wants to fight Sexton but to do that he needs to get his attention....beating Travis Walker was not enough so let see if beating Owen Beck and Williams will do it.

    If anybody knows Sexton let me know if he wants the fight :good

    Two thoughts spring to mind.

    1). Is Danny really that hard up for money?

    2). This is why I've never really contributed whole-heartedly to the various Danny Williams retirement threads...because I always think the guy is just gonna come back anyway. Cry Wolf syndrome.

    Needless to say, really hope this doesn't happen. Guess I'll be rooted for What The Heck, then.

    Sexton gotta bigger fish to fry mate. He beat Walker when Sexton already had Chisora lined up. Lets see if he can keep pressure on. From what i saw...i expect Sexton/Chisora to deal with him. Good fight vs Walker but don't think he's great.

    You know what...more fool Danny for getting in ring again. People around him need to step back and say No!!! and if you go to fight then you go without our blessing. Danny knows he's shot so it's either money or ignorance. The sport is like a drug but people in right places need to cut him off before he gets hurt badly.

    If he his hard up then firstly he shouldn't be but i know people struggle to manage money. So he needs to realize once you fight for £££ that's when things get dangerous. He can do a lot of things in sport. He's popular. He got friends who can get him sorted i'm sure. This is why a aftercare system would help boxers transition from ringlife to normal life easier. Get them active in sport and fighters with economical troubles can be helped by aftercare fund.

    I hate to say it mate as never been a Williams fan (save the unbelievable heroics vs potter), but I will be praying that he manages to land a biggun early. Because anyone that name hunts Danny Williams as he is now deserves to get beat.

    Fight shouldn't be liscensed. Danny has zero punch resistance left, the fridge wobbled him with a jab ffs.

    Stay retired Danny. Be the body guard that knocked out tyson!!!

    And all you scabby promoters, stop throwing money at him to be a name on some no-body's record!!!

    **** me can't believe Williams is fighting again after the chisora fight,someone close to him should be talking him out if it he'll end up getting badly hurt.

    Disappointed to read that. I keep giving Danny snow ball chances in fights hoping he comes in in shape and prepared but he is so far shot now I don't think I'd even watch him now. No matter what he comes in he is a shadow of himself. I can see why fighters on the up pouch on Danny with his name but i hoped Danny would leave at least near the top of domestic level but he is starting to look like a stepping stone.

    Good luck to him anyway. Give us a lot of good nights and was as brave as they come.

    One of the only things I've ever agreed with senator John McCain on, is when he was trying to implement a mandatory boxers pension scheme.

    As for the people around Danny helping him, have you seen who he has around him?
