    Good to see Callum Johnson making a come back, he’s a fun fighter to watch and he comes across as a decent person too.

      Hopefully Johnson can get better managed and/or promoted. Warren deliberately kept him away from Yarde imo.

        Wasn't Johnson struggling with mental health issues last November or so? He must have found a miracle cure.

          Well, he says he got bored and this cruiserweight thing might be the cure.

            this will not end well, he got a gift in his last fight against that random Kazakh guy, where he got rocked badly multiple times, he's going to get sparked out against anyone half decent at CW.

              When he retired Callum was incredibly critical of himself & said he didn't have the discipline or dedication to fulfil his dreams. Has his ability to dedicate himself & train changed? He was appallingly mismanaged. He fought once every 2 years. I understand that he wasn't with a big promoter but I never understood why he didn't search for 'stay busy' fights on undercards &, if necessary, go to Europe & the States for fights. Inactivity really destroyed Callum's career. Can anything change? I hope so because he comes over as a decent guy & he definitely had some ability.
