The Canadian is finally fighting again this Saturday against a no-namer. Johnson, who 'waist' his talent, is fighting on a card of.... Triple Mac Promotions. This guy never learns...
Johnson fight is off because they can't find the promoter triple Mac.LOL kirk signed last month for the fight and him and curtis had their bags packed as of this morning but they never heard anything from the promoter,never got a flight itinerary or an agenda for the weekend and wasn’t even sure if the card was still taking place.
Kirk Johnson’s long absence from the boxing ring will last a little longer. The 36-year-old former top heavyweight contender from North Preston expected to be at a weigh-in in Norfolk, Va., on Friday to be part of a pro card tonight, ending a near three-year absence against New England’s Dan Sheehan. But Johnson remained at his residence in Texas on Friday after his camp could get no particulars from the show’s promoter, Triple Mac Promotions of Virginia, after repeated attempts. Johnson said his lawyer and professional adviser, Chicago’s John Hornewer, told him late Thursday, the forecast for fighting today looked bleak. Johnson signed to fight Sheehan more than a month ago, but his camp has had little direct contact with the promoter since. He said he never got a flight itinerary or an agenda for the weekend and wasn’t even sure if the card was still taking place. "I had my bags packed just in case they called this morning," said Johnson. "(Trainer) Curtis (Cokes) had his bags packed. But I’ll take a few days off and get back at it."
There are many fights on this card. Why doesn't Kirk just show up and see what happens? Worse case scenario he is out a plane ticket. Not a big deal.
