Guest bezza Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 This for me was one of the most amazing moments in boxing I've witnessed. I remember Jim Watt saying at the time that if we'd seen it on a 'Rocky' film we wouldn't have believed it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 I'll never forget that fight, I was sat in watching it and Potter was giving Williams a leathering, Williams arm pops out then back in again then pops out again which gives him the kick up the arse he needed to get his boxing going. Great dramatic end to the fight, well done Williams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bezza Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 I'll never forget it either mate, Potter was way ahead on points, all he had to do was stay out of trouble and he'd won.. I still can't understand why Williams' corner didn't get him out of the fight. Were they really that confident he could win the fight with one arm? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

By the time Williams went back to the corner his shoulder had popped back in so he wanted to carry on. Only for it to come out again and he definitely would of been pulled out had he not found the knockout punch(es) to finish the bout. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
