Boxer Danny Williams accuses Audley Harrison of quitting
Danny Williams has called Audley Harrison a quitter ahead of their showdown in London on 10 December.
Danny Williams says that Audley Harrison tried to bail out when the
heavyweight rivals sparred five years ago and expects him to do the
same next month.
"The Audley I see now is no different to the one I sparred with years ago," said the 32-year-old boxer.
"I can see the old Audley having flashbacks from our session and wanting to quit when the pressure is on."
Audley Harrison, 34, was still an amateur when he last met Danny
Williams in a boxing ring and has since won Olympic gold as well as his
first 19 professional fights but former British and Commonwealth
champion Danny Williams is convinced Audley Harrison still has the
mental scars inside him.
"He will claim he was an amateur back then and that it was five years
ago but in his head he remembers what he went through," added Danny
Williams.
"In the meantime he has disrespected me by saying that he could win the
British title in five fights after he won the gold medal whilst I was
still the champion, and by calling me a cockroach.
"Audley might look the part at the moment with his unbeaten record but
he hasn't fought anyone as dangerous as me in his career and it's taken
him five years and 19 fights to come back and finally face me.
"He reckons I'm damaged goods because of my fight against Vitali
Klitschko but he couldn't be more wrong and I will prove it on the
night."
