Vitali/Johnson in December,What Rd will Johnson quit?

[True Guru]

Although Klitschko did his best to build up Arreola as a credible opponent, behind the scenes, his handlers were busy making arrangements for a December fight in Germany with American Kevin Johnson as the leading contender to land the fight.

The talks are serious enough that Johnson promoter Joe DeGuardia pulled Johnson out of a scheduled Oct. 10 fight against Cuban Olympic gold medalist Odlanier Solis - Dan Rafael

Four fights in 14 months for VitaliThe time off done him the world of good it would appear and he clearly doesnt want to hang around for months for his next fights.

LOL Johnson is feather fisted,How the **** would he beat Vitali?

[S.G.]

Personally I think you can outbox Vitali

It's Wlad that you need to out-tough

[aristotlemoses]

I don't think Johnson is as featherfisted as his record shows. I just don't think he puts any of his power to use. But that being said he will still get dominated. And I'm sure he knows it. I don't think he has the heart or chin of Arreola and he will probably end up quitting. We will have to wait and see though I guess.

[The Hammer]

Kevin Johnson is a big guy with a long reach. He has excellent technical skills, and his quick head movement and shoulder rolls make him very difficult to hit.

This will be a difficult fight for Vitali, although not a dangerous one like with Arreola. Johnson would be a better style matchup for Wladimir.

[aristotlemoses]

That'd be cool if he kept fighting at the Staples Center though. Seems like a great crowd turned out for it last night.

[True Guru]

14,556 were there last night,real good crowd.

vitali wins by TKO round 8

[aristotlemoses]

Wonder why they don't do boxing there a little more now.

[Mr Boxing9]

Altough Johnson is a pretty good skillfull fighter, he dosent stand much of a chance against Vitali. His style will cause Vitali no problems what so ever.

I'm afraid to say I know nothing about Kevin johnson; all boxrec tells me is he's undefeated, has a low KO percentage, gives away quite a bit of height but not much weight (lately) to VK, but notably has a marginally longer reach.
