Review: 2014-02-15, boring fight with too much clinching: Dereck Chisora vs Kevin Johnson gets one star. Dereck Chisora entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 19-4-0 (13 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.7 heavyweight in the world, all his defeats came between 2011 and 2012 when he faced four top ten heavyweights boxers: Tyson Fury (=Fury vs Chisora), Robert Helenius (=Helenius vs Chisora), Vitali Klitschko (=Klitschko vs Chisora) and David Haye (=Haye vs Chisora), but in 2013 he collected four cosecutive wins.
His opponent, Kevin Johnson, has an official record of 29-4-1 (14 knockouts) and he entered as the No.37 in the same weight class, he also faced and lost to Vitali Klitschko and Tyson Fury (=Fury vs Johnson) but he managed to win against Alex Leapai who recently beat the prospect Denis Boytsov (=Boytsov vs Leapai) and will be the next opponent of Wladimir Klitschko. Chisora vs Johnson is valid for the WBO and WBA International heavyweight titles, both titles held by Chisora and it is the main event of the evening. Watch the video and rate this fight!
