"There are a bunch of fighters in the heavyweight division who shouldn’t be in the top ten. I can move 95% of the top ten fighters out in the next two years."
BoxingTalk: Kevin, congratulations on your win this past weekend. How do feel about your performance over Damian Wills?
Kevin Johnson: It went exactly how I wanted it to go. I am very happy the way I was able to dictate the fighters the way I did.
BoxingTalk:Â Did you do everything in the ring that you had worked on in the gym?
Kevin Johnson: Almost. There’s so much more to Kevin Johnson. Nobody has seen me throw combinations like that before, and I have way more than that in my arsenal.
BoxingTalk: Was there anything that surprised you about Wills’ performance?
Kevin Johnson: That he didn’t quit.
BoxingTalk:Â Were you ever hurt in the fight?
Kevin Johnson: I did whatever I wanted to do. I talked to Damian’s wife throughout the fight. I’d respond to her comments about him knocking me out. There are a bunch of fighters in the heavyweight division who shouldn’t be in the top ten. They don’t deserve to be there. I can move 95% of the top ten fighters out in the next two years.
BoxingTalk:Â What statement do you think you made with your win over Wills?
Kevin Johnson: That I’d fight anybody with a good record.
BoxingTalk: What’s next for Kevin Johnson?
Kevin Johnson: I’d like to fight David Tua or Holyfield. I’m trying to retire people. Wills is done. Do you think he’d be able to come back after losing against a guy who is 15-0?Â
BoxingTalk:Â When would you like to be in the ring next?
Kevin Johnson: Hopefully next week, but probably next month. It’s hard to get fights with great performances like I had this weekend.
