    Really exciting fighter
    Hard division he is in though

    His power is absolutely legit and his fundimentals solid
    Has a chance against anyone in his division

    I'm a fan

    BTW, Seanie wasn't BS-ing when he said he said he's fought and sparred plenty of big punchers

    Seanie Monaghan@SeanieMono
    Damn @IceJohnScully your boy #Beterbiev is an absolute Wrecking Machine! It's like trying to step out on a highway and box with a Macktruck

    In rooting for Hot Rod to Beat AB so bad it would make the year for me (as a boxing fan)
    It's been dreadful how they've campaigned Artur. It's been a joke give me an absolute break, yes I'm picking hot rod. Let's hope ya boy been training maybe Hot Rod has been Retired

    Johnson traded with beterbiev it was do or die and for him it was die. Beterbiev a bit more skilled than beterbiev, Johnson punches maybe a little less hard but is more physically strong. Johnson will have trouble getting top opponents too I bet.

    You weren't joking about the guy he definitely goes to war and has dynmaite in both hands. When he drop beterbiev I was shocked . The guy if he gets lucky can probably stun bivol

    Hey, I picked him against Beterbiev, because I genuinely thought he had a great chance at the upset. Dammit, I was almost right. But Callum was stunned to realize he's that damn good too, and it momentarily threw him off his game, and he missed his golden opportunity. Hopefully he can carve through a few ore contenders and get that Beterbiev rematch.:deal:

    That's what I'm talking about. Sky Sports have uploaded CJ's sublime demonstration of the gulf in class between Brit Level and American Level from last Saturday night to their official YT channel

    Good fighter. He has the power to upset anyone. Skilled too. No shame in that AB performance. Definitely top 10.

    My top 10:

    Gvozdyk
    Bivol
    Kovalev
    Beterbiev
    Alvarez
    Browne
    Johnson
    Barrera
    Smith
    Calzaghe (he was that good)


    I'd love Johnson v Smith BTW.. Be a great fight!

    Callum Johnson is a great fighter to watch.

    A real seek and destroy type- and he will never be in a dull fight.

    I became a fan when he absolutely cleaned out Buglioni which was an upset let’s not forget, and I am looking forward to seeing him absolutely destroy more top level opposition

    Bro, Johnson vs. Smith is a 100% lock to be one of the greatest and most exciting fights ever. Hagler-Hearns, Ward-Gatti, Corrales-Castillo, it's a long list but you can chalk Johnson-Smith up there with any of them before it even happens. Great call.
