    World-Rated Heavyweight K. Johnson vs. Greer Nov. 7 in AC

    This Friday, November 7 at the Bally’s Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, NJ, Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing will present WBA #5/WBC #14 heavyweight Kevin Johnson vs. Matthew Greer and welterweights Terrance Cauthen vs. Shamone Alvarez.

    "Kingpin" Johnson (20-0-1, 7 KOs) Asbury Park, NJ, who was last seen September 5th at Bally’s beating former WBA heavyweight titlist Bruce Seldon, stopping the AC Express in the 5th round, will take on tough Matthew Greer (12-3, 11 KOs) of Parkville, MO, in a ten round heavyweight contest.

    The co-feature of the night features a fantastic welterweight showdown of New Jersey contenders. Trenton, New Jersey’s Terrance "Heat" Cauthen (33-4, 9 KOs) looks to feed off his latest victory over previously unbeaten Alexis Camacho and work his way towards another title shot when he takes on Atlantic City’s own Shamone "The Truth" Alvarez (19-1, 11KO). In Alaverez’s last fight he took on now IBF welterweight king Joshua Clottey, losing a tough twelve round unanimous decision.

    "We are back once again and we expect yet another fantastic show on November 7th," stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO of Star Boxing. "We have gotten such positive feedback from the shows we did in May and September we just had to do at least one more show before the new year. Kevin recently was moved up to the number five ranked heavyweight in the world and we are working on some very big things for him. We are hoping to get him in an eliminator for the number one spot soon and feel very confident matching him up against any of the heavyweight champions. In the mean time, rather than wait around we want to keep Kevin busy, and we think the fight with Greer is going to be very entertaining as he likes to come straight forward and ****. Kevin has said these are the type of fights he wants to be in, so he can show the boxing world he is just not a one dimensional fighter with a great jab. Don’t get me wrong, Kevin’s jab is unlike any other’s, but as you saw in his last fight with Bruce Seldon, Kevin does have very good power and when he wants to step on the gas and bring the fight to you, he can, and has promised he will once again on November 7th."

    Johnson looks like a decent enough prospect, he has a good fast jab and is pretty fast for a heavyweight, lacks power and needs to be tested more at the higher level to be judged more.

    Here's his record
