Yep, it's going to be an ass whupping no doubt, but it's a mandatory title defense.

Kevin Johnson 22(9 KO)-0-1, he's 30 years old, he's 6'3 got a big reach (82") and he's not usually in tremendous shape. The biggest fights of his career are: Timur Ibragimov (draw), Bruce Seldon (TKO 5), and Devin Vargas (TKO 6)....that is HORRIBLE competition, no solid boxers, no big punchers, no nothing!

On Kevin Johnson's BEST NIGHT he may get a result similar to when Larry Donald fought Vitali (TKO 10), if he's really lucky Vitali gets hurt and can't continue, but I see this fight just being domination from start to finish if Vitali decides to sit down on his punches this may be like the Kirk Johnson fight.

I still hope Vitali-Valuev comes to fruition
I'm hoping for a blazing Vitali performance, that will give people more reason to get excited by the HW's! I really really hope he doesn't get injured in this fight. If he does I see it being the end for Vitali.
