34 years old Kevin "Kingpin"
Johnson(29-3-1(14 KO) rated number 10 in the USA and number 31 in the
world will face 26 years old WBO European heavyweight champion
Christian Hammer (14-3(10 KO) rated number 3 in Germany and number 30 in
the world on this Friday, December 20 in Messe, Hamburg, Germany. This
will be a 10 rounds bout with no title on stake.
Kevin Johnson comes to this fight
after impressive win against Solomon Haumono(20-1-2) by KO round 10 in
one sided fight on April this year. Before that he lost against well
known undefeated British boxer Tyson Fury (19-0) by unanimous decision
on the end of 2012.
Christian Hammer comes to this fight
after big win, which was a surprise against only once defeated tough
Norvegian Leif Larsen(17-1) by KO round 7 on August this year. Larsen
lost only against Odlanier Solis before that fight. Before Larsen he
stopped Oleksiy Mazikin(14-7-2) by TKO round 6 on February this year.
This will be a big test for the
Champion as he never fought anyone from the world level. Kevin Johnson
believes he is an A class boxer and he will have no problems with some C
class champion. I don't rate Johnson as an A class boxer, I believe B+
is the best rate he can get. Well we can see how it will go on this
Friday night....
