March 11, 2012 in Australia....Kevin "THE KINGPIN" Johnson is scheduled to fight Alex Leapai in a 12 round fight...!!! The contracts have been signed, sealed and delivered. The fight will be announced on boxrec within a few days...!!! This is a tune-up fight for THE KINGPIN, before his next MAJOR FIGHT, which will be announced within 2 weeks.
Thought Kingpin had legal troubles involving child support that prevented him from leaving the states. Guess they are resolved. In any event, great fight. The heavies need these types of fights.
It was mistaken identity....When Kingpin tried to get on the plane, another person named Kevin Johnson from New Jersey information came up....The Kingpin is a single father (his wife was killed in a car accident years ago). He never owed child support, and he did train all over the world...!!! It prevented him from the Prizefighter tournament, and the ID Situation has been resolved.
Nice. Contenders fighting eachother. I dont like him at all but i think kinpin outboxes him easily. Congrats too for traveling for a fight. Must be getting some nice $$$
Leapai is the right kind of guy to force Johnson out of his comfort zone and into an exciting fight. :thumbsup
Wait to hear the announcement on his next opponent...its definitely a Major fight against a fighter with a pulse, and a great record...!!! Im not allowed to mention the opponent, but its someone with a nice record, and lots of experience!!!
no way will Kingpin trade with Leapai, he'll use his defence and slickness to win by UD, unless Leapai can land a right hand
