    Danny Williams, when he fought VK.

    Weighed in at the heaviest, any heavyweight has EVER, weighed in for a World Championship bout, in the history of Boxing...EVER!!!

    Danny Williams also had a injured shoulder.

    He was not fat, i just think his preparation was all wrong for the fight. He was strong and like a bull, he was pushing cars, and carrying Car Frames for a laugh in trainning.

    ^ he was fasting during training as it was ramadhan..what a huge mistake!!

    But stil, he was outclassed and probably ultra nervous.

    Yeah Samil Sam bashed him up, that's one of the fights where i believe Danny froze and got badly beaten. One sided.

    Danny Williams was suffering from Hepatitis, leading up to that fight.

    Valuev was not Champion at the time.

    Danny Williams weighed in at the Heaviest, at that point in time. That any heavyweight had weighed in for a Championship Bout in the history of Boxing.

    Anyone know why Danny wore Baggy trousers/Circus Pants in the ring?

    He was almost tripping over the things.

    I thought Lewis was crazy.

    I think Dannys career as a whole is very under rated. He travelled to other fighters back yards for fights. Won a lonsdale belt outright. Took the unbeaten records of Audley Harrison, Matt Skelton, Scott Gammer, Kali Meehan etc. Got a big upset win over Tyson (say what you will about Tyson been washed up, but it wasn't as if we thought he was facing a prime Tyson, and nodody thought Danny would beat a washed up Tyson before hand) He got a shot at the biggest title in the sport, and didn't disgrace himself!
    Then there was the dislocated arm incident vs Potter, the controversial fight with Airich. Danny really has seen it all. Would make a fascinating book in my opinion!!!!
