~ After Bout Comments ~

Dwight Braxton >
"We are not friends, but I respect Johnny as a boxer. He's the best fighter that I have been in the Ring
with as a Professional."

"I'm sure that after I win the Light-Heavyweight Title, he'll be lurking for another chance at me."

Johnny Davis >
"I won the first bout, and he won the second bout. We'll being seeing each other again, I'm sure."

"It was close, and I thought I edged out a Draw with a good 8th and 10th Round. The Judge -
William Kostrub scored it correctly {5-5-0} as a 'Draw'. It was really close."
