You got any stories about the sparring or Johnson generally?
Well, he has a good chin... slightly above average reflexes for a Jr. Middle when we used to work together. Good stamina, but susceptible to being hit- weak defense. Good power, but not blow you out of the water power.
The thing about him is his excellent counter-punching ability and his combinations. He hits you with three and four shots, but he also catches you coming off of the exchanges with three and four shots.
He also went to the 2008 Olympics, but lost in the first round. So he has some amateur pedigree. Used to fight since he was a little kid, he and his little brother.

He was a class act in the interview but I was surprised at how ordinary and street brawler wreckless he was after seeing him mentioned in title and contender circles. Guys like him come and go at a rapid rate. Really a case of what you see is what you're going to get with him, Cunningham couldn't miss him.
