Sir Bob Jones: SBW could struggle in fight

| Other Sport News | Tuesday October 23 2012 13:06

Respected boxing promoter Sir Bob Jones believes Sonny Bill Williams could struggle in his next professional fight.

Williams will fight former world title contender Francois Botha in Brisbane next month.

Sir Bob says although the South African is 44, his still a dangerous fighter.

He says if it's an honest fight Botha is still a threat because he is strong and rough.

Sir Bob says the South African is dangerous for a novice and it's an odd decision from Williams' management.

Botha has fought and lost to boxing legends Lennox Lewis, Mike Tyson, Wladimir Klitschko and Evander Holyfield.
