    I wish he would have retired when he had announcment on FNF. Its ironic that a class warrior who earned his bones and demanded respect competing with and beating the quality he "wasn't supposed to" is now grapsing at shadows right back on a journeyman circuit. His place is cemented and can only hope he finds some avenue to training...the roots and knowledge of this sport can be gold for some young guy coming up.

    I agree and Tarver and Jones are somehow still fighting while Chad Dawson seems to be thinking about retirement.

    Johnson would make a good trainer or maybe a commentator, he has a distinctive accent.

    True dat, and to think the only "unofficial enhancement" Johnson probally ever used unlike the two was eating dirt and being told he couldn't do something. He'd be a sage in a camp.

    Yes he's a good man and a hard worker. Funny too if you remember his post fight interview with Richard Hall who was asking for a rematch after a shut out.

    Johnson told him: "No it just be da same ting man. It just be da same ting."

    Lol
