    Well, the pressure is on then. Losing even one round would be an embarrassment for Johnson.

    This should be happening now. Any word, anyone?

    Watch this not happen either. Like his last one.

    Ho hum. :think

    I guess there isn't much to mock about that result. It isn't anything to get too excited about, either - but, hey he did TCOB. If he reemerges as a knockout artist and claws his way back into contention I suppose there will be obligatory props.

    I think I detect a touch of sarcasm?

    Nice to see him back to winning ways but I'm not holding my breath that he will turn things around. He has talent though.

    The guy he stopped in four, he was coming off of three straight losses, and the last was another four round TKO loss, only to a guy listed as having a record of 1-0-0. I guess he's being awfully careful but he should come back with someone on the level of a Gabe Brown or if he really wanted to be adventurous, the level of a Nagy Aguilera. :yep

    Sadly, he does have talent. Good defense, lovely jab, more power than his record would indicate, good hand speed.

    No way. He knows Abraham would knock him out. He wouldn't have to overextend himself like Vitali did to really crack him.

    Interesting how Johnson and Briggs both tear their biceps against Vitali? WTF?

    It's part of the vile negotiations tactics of the Klit sisters.

    1. We make more money than you do.

    2. You must be obese or no show.

    3. You must be short, even if surgery is required.

    4. You must fight my brother.

    5. You must either have a torn bicep, be in your late thirties, or have Teddy Atlas as your trainer


    There's 10 more things they ask for but they'll sue me if I say.

    Yeah, he's supposedly participating in the next edition of the UK Prizefighter series. This one features heavyweights and will uniquely open its doors to international participants. Beloved north Irish slugger and former British HW champion (and previously Prizefighter HW tournament champion) was rumored to be in, but withdrew this week.

    For those unfamiliar with PF...it's a...wait for it...

    knockout tournament. The 3 round format favors quick stoppages to both avoid having to worry about impressing the judges in such short time, and to conserve energy for the later rounds (quarter-finals, semi-finals and Finals are all on the same night, within a couple of hours).

    Perfect for Kingpin, huh? :lol::lol:

    He has ended five whole fights within 3 rounds in his pro career.

    Mikey Garcias a good prospect but I fear the jump from featherweight to heavyweight may be a bridge too far. Mike Perez on the other hand is in with a good chance
