    Yep I can't think of anyone else who has faced better opposition at heavyweight currently than Chisora. He almost fought Wlad too had it not been for Wlad pulling out with an Injury.

    Right. That, too.

    If I never see Kevin Johnson in the ring again I'll be happy. The least entertaining boxer on planet earth.

    Although KJ's resume is slightly better, he fought most of them as a past prime journeyman, whereas Chisora was a serious threat against pretty much all of them.

    KJ's defense and counter punching is always a pleasure to watch. His Pulev fight was pretty good. He's only boring against guys he can't cope with their power, in which case he just runs around to avoid a KO.

    Then he should teach a class. But I don't want to watch him fight anymore. He sucks the air right out of the building. Nothing at all entertaining about him. Can't think of one fight of his I'd ever watch a second time. There's nothing more boring than watching a guy cover up for eight or 10 rounds, and do as little as possible just to keep the ref from stopping it. He's just in it to give guys rounds.
