Kevin Johnson: The Kingpin Of The Journeymen-The Great American Gatekeeper Of Georgia

The only excitement from KJ in his career, running his mouth OUTSIDE the ring at Seth Mitchell. NO gay ****, no ****.

Had some skills... Could have done a lot better than he did, but he had a sparring partner mentality.

 

Kingpin would have ended Mitchell.

 

In retrospect yes, IF KJ would have the courage to let his hands go.....which he often doesn't. At the time, I think most ppl had it going Mitchell's way as Mitchell was an undefeated prospect and KJ was already a flop.

 

It would only take one or two good right hands..... I could see Mitchell banking the first couple of rounds just based on Kingpins inactivity, but eventually he gets touched with something and hits the deck. Kingpin even though completely in a shell managed to hurt Chisora badly with a bodyshot, but he lacked the instinct to follow up and go in for the kill.

Seldon wasn't in bad shape for his age... Have to give him credit for that. He was 41 at the time and 10+ years past his prime

 

Seldon and KINGPIN had a running hatred towards each other stemming from KINGPIN's amateur days. The rumor was KJ got roughed up in sparring with Art Tucker, and Seldon laughed about it.

Seldon was asked to spar with KJ the next time, and KJ handled Seldon easily.

Months later, KJ was arrested on an assault charge and place in juvenile correctional facility...Seldon went to visit the inmates, but had a few choice words for KJ.

KJ vowed to defeat Seldon in the ring, and the match would take place early in KJ's career. Seldon declined numerous offers to fight the young, brash trash-talker, but after Seldon got roughed up sparring Faruq Saleem, intensifying a barrage of trash talking from KJ; the two decided to meet up...!!!

Both Seldon and KJ are now cordial towards one another, Seldon even sparred with Wes Nofire and KJ before the KJ -Devin Vargas fight...!!!

 

I will add his musical ability, and his trash talking...!!!

 

Good jab. Good chin, especially in his prime.

 

hes was quite a character. he was a modern day apollo creed. too bad he never turned to be good as creed
