In stead of missing a great fight on January 30Th between The "Road Warrior" Glen Johnson and Yusaf Mack the date and venue are just moving. Originally the fight was supposed to take place during the HBO telecast January 30Th on Shane Mosley and Andre Berto under-card. Andre Berto had to pull out of that fight because of the disastrous earthquake in Haiti where he lost several family members. Now the fight will take place on the date of February 5Th in Miami Florida at the NSU Center Arena. ESPN2's FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS will telecast this great match up that already has Guillermo Rigondeaux who is an up and coming super bantamweight prospect on the card. Yusaf Mack says he has turned his life and career around and from the look of his record lately it sure seems like it. Mack has reeled off 5 straight wins, 3 by TKO since his loss to Librado Andrade. I think this is a great chance for Yusaf Mack to show the world who he really is and gain back some respect, I will be pulling for him. Glen Johnson is coming off a disappointing, one sided loss to Chad Dawson. I like The Road Warrior but he sure looked old in his last fight maybe he still has a little magic left. I picked Johnson to win that fight and I'm not sure of the reason for Johnson's ugliness that night. Was it because he is getting old because in boxing you can get old in one night or is it because Dawson was so good. I guess on February 5Th we will find out, I can't wait.
