STRENGTHS

A powerful athlete, Johnson possesses a football background and presents a good size-power package at heavyweight. He’s an extremely quick and aggressive starter, who historically has rarely allowed his fights to get past the first round. At his best standing, Johnson is a dangerous striker who shows no hesitancy in letting his hands go. He’s armed with heavy hands and fantastic one punch knockout power. Johnson has good reach, a quick jab, a powerful left hook and is constantly looking to find a home for his right hand.

WEAKNESSES

Far from a finesses striker, Johnson’s speed, footwork, and defensive tendencies are not his forte. His punches tend to get loopy and wild at times, and he’s also shown a tendency to hang in the pocket where he’ll get tagged by the opposition. Johnson’s grappling game, guard and submissions are a continual work in progress.
