Comments Thread For: Botha Wants Sonny Bill Williams Rematch in December

BIGPOPPAPUMP

Francois Botha is hoping to fight Sonny Bill Williams in Durban in December.

The South African heavyweight who lost to Williams in Brisbane last week also revealed on Wednesday that he had undergone a drug test at the Lancet Laboratories in South Africa, which came back negative.

"I landed in South Africa on the Sunday, and the next day I went for the tests, and it came back clean," he said.

"I sent the results back to Australia and New Zealand for them to see for themselves.”

Australian newspapers reported earlier this week that Botha, a former IBF champion, had tested positive for illegal substances in tests done before the fight against the All Black rugby star.

They say the WBA make title fights 12 rounds. Well someone pointed out they have 10 rd title fight. The last 5 fights for that title were 10 rounds...

Yep, people keep claiming the WBA never have done 10 round fights when clearly Haye vs Chisora the biggest fight of 2012 was a WBA sanctioned 10 round fight and Andrzej Wawrzyk defened the international belt 3 times that where all ten rounders with no problem.

We're only in Feb. Why the rematch so late in December? Do it 3 months from now.

Sonny B1tch Williams is contracted to the NRL for the NRL season add to that are rep duties which are more than likely to come his way. He won't be free until late this year. In the meantime Botha can actually get in shape.

Tua vs Cameron was the "fight of the century" down there. Are they trying to big up a proposed rematch of this excrement as EVEN BIGGER than that all time classic. Wow!!

Yeah no offense, but Australian boxing really is a joke.
