He's a slow starter in longer fights, but he knows this is 3 rounds per fight, so should come out with a strong jab from the start

I don't think Johnson wins this. I'd put money on it, if someone want to spot me the other 7.

Kevin Johnson is taking part in Prizefighter and is very excited about the event and see's it as a springboard to another world title fight plus putting him in the shop window to take on British heavies like Fury, Price, Haye and Chisora.

Likely, but I wonder if forcing a quick start will impair his performance.

it would be a rather large change to the formula if all the fighters are getting 'a-list celebrity big brother-style attendance fees'
as i understand it its still 3k for the quarters ????

I think there'll almost definately be some type of 'appearance bonus' involved plus training expenses, flights and board for him and his team.
He would have taken part last time if he hadn't been stopped from leaving America due to his outstanding child support fees.
