Danny Williams: Beating Mike Tyson Was Dream Come True

Danny Williams: Beating Mike Tyson was dream come true
….Dad’s death lowest point of his career
Danny Williams, 47, was born British. He is a retired
heavyweight boxer whose exploits in the ring made him one of
the most popular British boxers of his day. Right now, Williams
has called time with boxing. Except, perhaps, until he is called
to assist younger and aspiring boxers at clinics as an
instructor, the former British heavyweight champion says he
has nothing left to offer in the fistic art of self-defence. “My
boxing career is over,” he declared.
Born to a Jamaican mother and a father of Nigerian descent,
the retired boxer feels that at his age, even though he has
called it quits from boxing, he still has a hidden talent which is
yet to be explored to the full. What he intends doing is far
from the boxing ring. He wants to go into a new field
altogether.
“I want to go into acting,” he said.
Acting may not be entirely new to Williams. In a telephone
chat with Sports Vanguard, Williams boasted of a profitable
stint in acting even before quitting boxing. He told us that he
played a key role in a movie that turned out to be a thriller, a
blockbuster which was rated 4th in Turkey at the time. He said
a boxing agent took him to Turkey to play the role of a boxer
in the movie.
Danny Williams’ Nigerian background remains hazy as he could
neither name his state nor which of the Nigerian tribes his
roots originated from. “My father told me his grandfather came
from Nigeria and from available information, my paternal
grandmother too was Nigerian,” Danny disclosed, adding, “my
father’s name is Augustus Williams.”
When we pressed for details about his Nigerian background,
the former boxer said, “He didn’t give me those details you
are asking for. I don’t have the information you are asking
me.”
What happened to the other arm? We asked.
“It dislocated, so I began to use my left hand and, to God be
the glory, I was able to knock him out.’
After the dramatic win over Potter, Williams was laid off due
to injury. He recovered after six months to record another 32-
second knockout over the respected opponent – Kali Meehan
and then avenged his defeat to Francis, stopping the 36-year-
old on an eye injury in the 4th round.
As a reward for hard work, Williams was signed by Don King
and ended 2001 knocking out US journeyman Shaun Robinson.
His tenure under King would prove to be uneventful, and they
parted ways at the end of 2002.
In February 2003 Williams fought Turk champion Sinan Samil
Sam for his European heavyweight title in Germany.
Surprisingly Williams dropped three times and was stopped in
six rounds.
He returned with a fourth-round stoppage of Australian Bob
Mirovic to retain his Commonwealth title, then knocked out
Michael Sprott in five rounds to defend his British &
Commonwealth titles.
In 2004, Williams re-signed with Frank Warren, then lost his
British and Commonwealth titles in a third meeting with
Michael Sprott via a disputed close points decision.
Till date, Williams is insisting he was robbed of victory “I
lasted a few years as heavyweight champion and I got robbed.
Everybody thought I won the fight but I got robbed.”
After two comeback knockout wins, Williams boxed former
world champion Mike Tyson who was a phenomenon and the
likes of Danny Williams grew up watching him fight. Tyson was
first demystified by Buster Douglas via a shocking knockout.
When Tyson staged a comeback in 2004, Danny Williams had
already become a household name in the heavyweight class in
Europe and in Britain in particular.
The fight against Tyson held in Freedom Hall State Fairground,
Louisville, Kentucky. After staggering Williams numerous times
in the first round, Tyson began to tire in the fourth round, when
Williams threw a torrent of punches, he forced Tyson to go
down. Tyson was counted out sitting with his back to the
ropes and made no attempt to get to his feet while looking up
at the referee. He had to be helped to his feet because, as was
later discovered, he left the ring with a torn ligament in his leg.
I beat Tyson via 4th knockout and that remains the greatest
victory of my career as a boxer,” Williams recalled.
How was it like beating Tyson, who, to the average fan, was
boxing personified?
“It was an unbelievable feeling. I grew up watching Mike
Tyson. He was a wonderful fighter and a fantastic boxer,” he
said, but added, “I must confess that I may not have been able
to beat him when he was at his peak. I know I couldn’t have
had a chance against him. But again, here in the ring was a
man who was a phenomenon with a tremendous past.
He was an amazing fighter and I felt that pride and
satisfaction that I shared the same ring with him and, for the
records, I came out victorious via knockout. It was a dream
come true.”
After the fight against Tyson, Danny Williams’ career took a
dive into oblivion, In December he finally challenged for a
world heavyweight title, but Vitali Klitschko proved too much,
as Williams was stopped in the 8th round.
“I had a shot at the world title against Vitalis Klitschko and I
lost that fight. After that my career went down.”
Williams, who was called the Brixton Bomber said his loss to
Klitschko forced him to retire.
“I took a lot of punishment from Klitschko and in boxing,
punishment from a lot of punches makes you age fast. After
that fight, I felt I couldn’t continue and I stopped fighting.”
After hanging his gloves, Danny Williams said he is not
finished yet. He has decided to dust his acting garments and
join the fray as a Nollywood actor.
