SAM SEXTON GETS COOKING WITH DELIA SMITH
2nd January 2010 By Kevin Francis
DELIA SMITH is helping Sam Sexton cook up a recipe for success when he challenges for the British heavyweight title.
Sexton meets champion Danny Williams at Wembley Arena on February 13 when he hopes it will be a case of “Let’s be ’avin’ yer!”
Smith is a director of his home city club Norwich and Sexton, 25, is following the chef’s ultra-healthy recipes. She famously stood on the Norwich pitch at half-time in a match against Manchester City and urged the Canaries fans to get behind their team.
Now Sexton hopes to have the belt off Williams with the aid of Delia, saying: “Until a year ago I couldn’t boil an egg but I’ve taken up cooking as part of my new training regime."
“Around the time I lost to Derek Chisora I wasn’t in the best of shape and I vowed never to go into a fight under-prepared again. I worked harder than ever in the gym and also started to prepare my own meals with the help of a nutritionist to make sure all the ingredients were healthy."
“I’ve got the recipe books of all the best chefs, but the one I’ve been following most closely is Delia. Her food worked twice for me against Martin Rogan. I don’t think I’ve ever been in such good shape for fi ghts before. It will be the same against Williams."
"I’ve got plenty of respect for Danny, but there is no way on earth that he can beat me. Even if the Danny Williams who beat Mike Tyson turns up, then he’s still in trouble against me. He says he wants to take the fi ght to me, but that suits me just fine.”
