Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson
Callum Johnson of Scotland - Just watching the final and also caught another of his fights. He lloks really strong, with a good dig and a very pro style.
I had never heard of him; but I really like his prospects.
I also enjoyed the Callum Smith final - that was exciting. His opponent won (can't remember his name), but it was a quality scrap

Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson
Callum is a class act, will be a superb pro. He has bags of amature experiance and figthing for scotland he openly admits was his best decesion he made as its gave him loads of world wide amature experiance. I thought the smith boy was ul today aswell he will be another very good pro

Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson
Today was the first time I'd seen Johnson box and I was very impressed. He was so strong and was doing some damage up close.
On that fight's evidence, it's hard to believe McCarthy beat him earlier in the year.

Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson

he gave sam webb a hiding at 71kg when he was 19 quite shocked he has left it so long to turn over :!:

He does really look like he could make a name for himself in the pro ranks at middleweight.
Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson
HE IS A GOOD LAD, IS FROM BENNINGTON NOT FAR FROM BOSTON WHERE I WORK.
Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson

Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson
Thought Callum Johnson looked brilliant throughout, never looked close to losing. Was so strong and threw some lovely powerful shots
Thought Tom Stalker was one of, if not the boxer of the tournament and also would like to congratulate my youngest brother Callum on a great tournament, so proud of him![[icon_notworthy.gif] :bow:](./images/smilies/icon_notworthy.gif)

how do you think he'll do as a proffesional?
Re: Some Positive Commonwealth Boxing - Callum Johnson
Yeah, so proud of him mate, he had a lot of extra pressure on his young shoulders going into the games knowing two of his elder brothers got the final....added to that it was his first major tournament and it was definitely a success!Tommy Gunn13 wrote:Some record your family have,3 boxing brothers in the final of 3 concecitive commenwealths games$wifty wrote:Thought Callum Johnson looked brilliant throughout, never looked close to losing.
