In a telephone interview from his Miami home, Glen Johnson told the Jamaican Gleaner that Bernard Hopkins will have to wait in order to fight him becasue he is focused on facing Antiono Tarver next.

"Hopkins says he would step up in weight to fight me. That challenge is something I welcome when and if that happens, but I have a rematch with Tarver, which is first and foremost." said Johnson

Johnson said that a Hopkins bout is not even on his mind but said if both men win their next bouts then they can come together for a big money rematch.
