Williams lost in the Wilderness

The future looks bleak for British Heavyweight champion Danny Williams after he suffered a shock defeat at the hands of Poland’s Albert Sosnowski on Saturday night.

Sosnowski, who was a late replacement for John McDermott, sent the ‘Brixton Bomber’ to the canvas in the 8th round with a pounding left hand - resulting in the fight being stopped.

Williams refused to give interviews after the fight.

The 35 year old famously beat Mike Tyson back in 2004 but has failed to live up to his potential since.

The Brit has been criticised heavily in the past for his lazy, sluggish style and his fights against fellow British heavyweight’s Audley Harrison and Matt Skelton were described as some of the worst in history, bringing the division to a new low.
