But Johnson had already fought McVey, Jeanette and Langford several times each plus exhibitions with each too, he must have been sick of the sight of them! Most were wins or 'no decisions' from memory but the newspaper writers rarely had Johnson being outfoxed! 'No decisions' were far, far more common than now. Plus he did get pittance for these tough fights!
The general public of the day wanted him to fight white guys even if the likes of McIntosh were offering good money for him to face his old friend Langford. He was much hated by white America at the time as you know.
