Contender?

One of his last 2 opponents had a record of 8-120-1.

Crazy that his fight against Beterbiev was 6 years ago. He's 38 and I know his mind has been elsewhere for a while now....he will be lucky if he managed another meaningful fight. He has power, I always wanted to see a firefight between him and Joe Smith, Jr...we nearly had it but it fell through.

Regardless, I hope he finds some peace after the loss of his father...

Tbh him and Chris Billiam smith would be a good fight style wise. But don't see Billiam smith wanting to take a fight like that unless he can't get any unifications

Callum's been a great campainer, but the glory days have passed him by, Having said that he could still provide some great contests @ British level & I'd love to see him fight current champion Cheavon Clarke.

Johnson's career has been seriously mismanaged. He signed with promoters that deliberately kept him away from their other 175ers.

Time flies, can't believe that fight was six years ago
