He's arrogant thats for damn sure. He has the personality that makes him very hard to root for. He has really fast hands and good ring generalship. But he gets lazy and showboats, and so far no real show of ko power. Hard to say how far he goes.
By the way, his resume is pretty awesome for only having 20 fights.
Terry Smith
Damian Wills
Robert Hawkins
and Timor Ibragimov (his draw, third fight. Timor was 13-0)
I don't mean to suggest thats a top flight resume on the overall scale, but all four of those guys are better fighters than you normally find on prospects resumes at this point in their careers. This is especially true for heavyweights.
I guess I was in the minority in finding him very intriguing to watch. His handspeed is jaw dropping and his defense is very solid. Of course everyone wants to see him engage more, but I'm always just as enthralled by pure skill as I am wars. He reminds me of Floyd as people have said. I loved watching PBF rise through the ranks too, so I'll enjoy more of Johnson. I just hope if he gets to the top he fights his real challengers though and doesn't completely emulate PBF.
Tries to do the Mayweather in the Heavyweight division, shit is lame. No pop for such a huge guy, rather showboat and go the distance, see how far that'll take you in the divsion.
But he does fight like Floyd, hit and dont get hit he wont get very far in the divison, not unless he does what Floyd did, fight older guys call out bums with Titles and run your mouth to convince the young idiots watching your sorry ass that your the best, sooner or later you will convince them.
Fuck this is all we needed another hit and dont get hit lil bitch.
He's just another American heavyweight pretender...This clown Johnson said in an interview that he's the best heavyweight in the world and he will clean out the division.:nonono:
theres about as much chance of that happening as there is butterbean moving down to welterweight for a fight with floyd.
That dude was embarrassing. Trying to showboat and shit, no need for that when you can't even knock the guy out and you have a low ko percentage. Trying to talk to the crowd and shit? Fuck that, hope he gets ko'd soon. Disrespecting a vet.

The only thing he'll be cleaning out, is his locker, after a real heavyweight connects on that clowns chin.
