Glen Johnson – George \”Khalid\” Jones for IBF Title Eliminator

Light Heavyweight Glen Johnson hits the comeback trail tonight in California as the former IBF, IBO and USBA titlist steps into a boxing ring for the first time since losing a rematch to Antonio Tarver back in June. Johnson will be facing 38 year old southpaw and current USBA beltholder George “Khalid” Jones on the Goosen-Tutor promotion, televised in the US box Fox Sports Net, and at stake will be an offical IBF title eliminator for the number one challenger position. Jones hasn’t lost during his previous seven bouts and just may give the 36 year old Johnson a run for his money. For Johnson, this contest is a way to get back into title contention as the winner of this bout will earn the right to meet IBF Champion Clinton Woods.
