Who gives a **** !! The heavyweights arent the forfront of boxing!! Please dont make these fights even headlines boxingscene please. This does nothing for boxing. Nothing.

A good step up for Johnson. Johnson has got a good skillset and a sharp accurate Jab, which is his best weapon. He dosen't have KO power, and he isnt really that heavy handed, but like I said has good skills, a nice a jab, and a good boxing brain.

He's facing a true vetran in Barrett, who has fought some of the divisions best over the years, and has pushed and beat many rising Heavyweights over the years, including once touted 24-0 Dominick Guinn.

Johnson talks alot, and if he is as good as he says he is, he should get past Barrett here. But don't count 2 Gunz out......

Should be interesting.

This is the kind of heavyweight fight that needs to be made: up-and-comer against solid veteran.

Johnson has been fighting poor opposition the last couple of years, so Barrett is a good step up for him. This fight will answer some questions I have about about Kevin's capability.

WBA #5?...

We`re facing the creation of the future "interim, pretty active, disordinary" heavyweight champion...

I like boxing, regardless of the weights. And Barret always interests me for some reason.

Barrett is a good step up for him.

Wait... Barrett's ****. Beyond ****. Haye blew him away. That makes him a bum and a nobody. Right?

He's well past his best, but still better than Johnson's last pot-bellied opponent.

He's well past his best, but still better than Johnson's last pot-bellied opponent.

So Johnson would get credit for beating him, but Haye doesn't. Logic?
