    Rigo got a (WBA) belt. People with belts dont fight more than two or three times a year.

    Jhonson fights on Friday 6/3! I think he is better than Lara.

    Well, sometimes sparrings don't mean much specially when they are both Cuban ex team mates. What Lara has better than Jhonson is power but everything else Jhonson does better. Jhonson's skills, technique, defence, stance and movements are very similar to a prime Casamayor but at 154 pounds. The guy is " smooth as silk " like Teddy Atlas says. :good

    PS, Jhonson will make Molina look horrible and beat him easily with his pure technique and defence. Don't forget that Jhonson has better amateur experience than Lara.

    Big expectations for cubans. Not only the famous like Gamboa ,Rigondeaux,Lara; Solis
    Some more unknown like Jhonson,Franco ,Dortico, Barrera already ranked top 15 in IBF/WBA/WBC. But Ugas,Yuniesky Gonzalez,Pedro Julio Rodriguez, Angelo Santana
    Hairon Socarraz , Vilier Quononez ,like the three in Irland and not forget Luis Ortiz

    Johnson is a good boxer he should come down and he will show more power, he is fighting biggest boxers than him.

    I thought it was at 154, now he did win every round he could have blast that journeyman out of there, I'm a bit disappoint it.

    I disagree jhonson is a boring fighter that plays cat and mouse usually, cubans have just been overated him since his performance on the lara card, but forget about it that performance didnt fool me
