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.

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

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.Last edited by Southpaw16BF; 04-30-2009, 08:28 PM.Leave a comment:
