Williams targets Klitschko's title
LONDON, England -- British boxer Danny Williams returned to London on Monday a week after his knockout of Mike Tyson seeking a showdown with WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko.
"I want to fight Klitschko and become WBC champion of the world. That has always been my dream since I was eight years old. It's the one Ali had and it's the one I want," said the 31-year-old.
"I believe I beat one of the best in the division so I want this one next. I have beaten Tyson so I believe Klitschko would be a pushover."
Williams called his defeat of Tyson "one of the biggest shocks in the history of boxing.
"I was fighting one of the all time greats and I was a massive underdog but I was able to stop him in four rounds.
"I need to keep my feet on the floor and move on to bigger and better things. I'm capable of beating anyone and well. This has changed my life big time. This has been unbelievable.
"The American public has warmed to me because they saw me get hurt bad in the first round but come back by showing all my courage and determination to win."
Williams also took another swipe at Audley Harrison, claiming the former Olympic gold medalist was no longer in his league.
"The Harrison fight is off the agenda," said Williams. "I've been calling him out for years but he refuses to fight me.
"It would have been a great fight for the British public but he refused to get in a ring with me. I've moved on to the world stage now and left him a long way behind."
