Minneapolis, MN- Following a narrow split decision loss at the hands of Matt Vanda, Phil Williams has cut ties with trainer Chuck Dazkiewicz, and moved assistant trainer Jacque Davis into the head role.
“I just don’t think Chuck was bringing me to the level that I need to be at as I move forward in my career”
Williams’ loss to Vanda on November 13 will stand as Dazkiewicz’s final appearance in Williams’ corner, and Williams would love to have the next chapter of his career open in a rematch with Vanda. A fight he feels would play out far different than the first.
“I didn’t know what ten rounds would be like so I held back a little, now I know I can go ten and could have gone twelve, if we fight again I’ll knock him out”
Williams does feel he should have earned more respect than he received on November 13. Although winning the fight handily on onejudge’s card, Williams says he wasn’t credited enough for his ability to box behind a stiff jab against a fighter with nearly five times his experience.
“My jab did land and it did hurt him. If you watch the fight with the sound off you get a different fight, he had a loud crowd behind him, and it was a much different fight than the one Bonsante and the broadcasters were calling”
Phil Williams and his team have a positive stance on the fight, and take nothing away from Matt Vanda’s performance, but still feel that it is a very winnable fight should the rematch come to fruition. Williams feels he can fight until he is 40, and believes there is plenty of opportunity in the super middleweight division.
“I could fight tomorrow, my body isn’t breaking down, and I could go twelve rounds right now. In thirteen fights I’ve shown you that I like to fight the best possible opposition and that won’t change”
Phil Williams vs. Matt Vanda set an attendance record at Grand Casino Hinckley and aired in front of a regional audience on FSN North.
Phil Williams’ future plans will be announced shortly.
