Dazzo Williams

In 2008 he staged a 100-round 'spar-a-thon' at Wye ABC to raise money for the club. In 2010 the club won the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service.

In June 2005 he faced Nicky Cook, with Cook's Commonwealth and European titles at stake in addition to Williams' British title. Cook knocked Williams out in the second round.

After winning eight from his first ten fights, culminating in a narrow title eliminator win against Steve Chinnock, he challenged for Roy Rutherford's British featherweight title in November 2003 at the Kings Hall, Belfast, taking another narrow points decision. He made three successful title defences in 2004, beating Jamie McKeever, Rutherford, and John Simpson (a controversial victory by only one point) to win the Lonsdale Belt outright.

Born and raised in Lambeth, London, and based in Hereford during his boxing career, Williams, a former soldier, trained at Gelligaer ABC. He made his professional debut in February 2001, beating Mickey Coveney via a second round knockout.
