Why is Kevin Johnson fighting Vitali?

[hollister]

That statistic you speak of will be the only one to truly beat Vitali, and not have Vit lose due to injury..................................

Look man, I'm all for bringing the belts back to the US, I just dunno...
I'll be waiting to see if you're right lol

[NakiFan]

KJ has more power than his record indicates, and he will unleash his full arsenal on Vit.....................Dec 12, the day the HW belt comes back to America for good...................

Hahaha, you mean the day american heavyweight boxing gets truly buried. After that all you have is buck-toothed chambers and he will get demolished too!

I'll admit, I have no idea why Johnson is being allowed to fight VK, guess it's because nobody is worth a **** in that weight class....

uh hello we got a good young prospect named holyfield

[Glamour Puss]

Kevin Johnson is a fairly good boxer with no power behind his punches, and he is a big dude he just doesn't have much pop. With how talented the Klitschkos are, theirs no one really in the heavyweight division who can beat them.

He's got severely underrated power when he turns his punches over.

Most of the time he lulls you to sleep w/ pawing punches, but as you saw against Vargas, when he put snap on them and turned them over he's got power.

Vitali will most likely win, but it won't be easy.

Because it's for the heavyweight championship of the world and if you're ready, you're ready. I think Johnson will give a good accounting of himself with his size and boxing skills. He is a pretty interesting style for a guy like Vitali who is used to having crude sluggers wade into his punching range.

Why is he fighting Vitali? Because fighting Billy Zumbrum doesn't inspire the public.

again vitali is picking on guys who dont have the same level as experience
as him. same with arreola, haye ...

Actually Haye does have the experience, but he doesn't have the balls. Believe it or not Johnson is the best opponent out there. The other contenders such as Eddie Chambers and Alexander Povetkin are set to fight other opponents. Well Povetkin isn't but I doubt he wants to fight Vitali. Teddy Altus wants him to fight a tune-up.

He may be a good boxer, but he hasn't fought anybody. His record is worse than Arreola's, and Arreola wasn't ready to fight Vitali.

[GreatRubdini]

He's better in shape than Arreola....he has sum good skills but he shouldnt keep his hands low if he fights Vitaly He'll get decked....
