The Kirk Johnson I knew in Dallas/Ft Worth was a top HW contender. I seriously do not think Kirk realised how good he was. If he'd fought vitali back then he might well have beaten him
He really did win a title The WBC title but corrupt Joe Cortez & Oscar worthy acting from John Ruiz robbed him of itatsch
Teddy Atlas said that Kirk Johnson would knock Vitali Klitschko out with one punch, but Vitali made a liar out of Atlas. Larry Merchant said; "The whale has been harpooned!" Yes, Vitali knocked Johnson out in the second round at Madison Square Garden, New York, New York USA, the fight was sold out during a huge snow storm.................
You are living in fukin denial. The fact is he got KTFO by Vitali. Keep over rating your hype jobs a'la Kirk Johnsons and Ikeabuchi(IbeataHoochie).:deal) :smooch
My Sister knows Kirk and he grew up a few miles from me. Kirk spent to much time eating moms cooking rather than in the Gym. He really did waste his talent and could have been a titlist in this weak era.
Good question. I think Custio wants to compete in the Commonwealth Games, so not till 2014 at the earliest.
