'' Danny Williams who lost his second round contest to 2008 Beijing Olympic bronze medallist Rasul Boqiev of Tajikistan in the men’s -73kg category.
Williams, 23, lost to an ippon score with just 21 seconds remaining of the five-minute bout after forcing his opponent to concede a shido passivity penalty. The Shrewsbury fighter looked devastated in defeat and did not stop to speak to waiting reporters as he walked out of the arena. His coach Luke Preston, however, insisted Williams could take great credit from an unexpected Olympic chance, awarded on home nation places. “Danny did everything right really and he just got caught when the guy got his chance, but that is judo,” Preston said. “He was fighting an Olympic bronze medallist and just got caught that one second and it was all over.” |
