    Williams' corner: WORST in HISTORY!

    Was I the only one who noticed how awful Danny Williams' cornermen were last night? 3 voices at once, between every single round, and none of those voices contained any meaningful dialogue. That looked like a lousy little league coaching staff, not one that should be assembled for a heavyweight championship fight. Sterling McPherson is known worldwide as the most useless trainer in the business, and he proved it again last night as he was hollering pointless instructions into Danny's ear between every round. Horrible teamwork by "Team Williams." They deserved to get humiliated.

    Who is Sterling McPherson? I've never seen that guy with Danny before in my life. His trainer was speaking instructions to him but Danny couldn't hear him. I particularly hated McPherson's "Your children are watching this." Danny's not the sort of fighter you "pump up", it achieves the opposite effect.

      yeah, awful instructions, they were obviously motivating him, and it may have worked, but they should have been teeling him to get in close, head down and throw some body shots.

          As I say, that was the only good thing to come out of this... I got to prove I was honest. Poor old Danny.

            I dont blame the corner, i agree they were very poor but Williams wouldnt have taken any advice regardless of how good it was.

            Williams was a zombie and i'm suprised he knew when to start a new round!!

              i agree the team is pretty horrible. the biggest mistake however was them not preparing williams properly for the fight by letting him come in at 270lb- you can see that he had movement problems carrying all that weight-which unfortunately for williams helped cost him the fight.

                    It didn't matter, Williams didn't have an effective gameplan against Klitschko anyway.
