    After a couple of hours Glen Johnson will take on Avri Yildirim.

    Yildirim is a powerful guy, with good defence. He had a real good amateur varret. I expect the turk to win a decision, althought the fight is on Johnson's hometown.

    Avni is a real prospect, but his promoter(Ahmet Oner) being hasty matching him with Johnson in 6th pro fight. He's never seen more than 4 rounds and we know Johnson don't get KOd easily.

    It would appear that LHWs from the late 90s/early 2000s just don't want to retire!

    Tarver, Johnson,Jones, Toney Hopkins, all still going!

    And they're all doing alright, some better than others. Well except for Toney, he's shot to absolute bits and really shouldn't be fighting.
