In boxing you have your pacquiaos, mayweathers and roy jones
You also have your glen johnsons junior witters and lamont petersens.
JP is in the second group and thats fine
You might be right and im also fine with it, hes a hell of a nice kid and works hard to get his wins. But dont forget Glen Johnson knocked Roy Jones Jnr out cold.
I absolutely think he should fight the likes of Fujimoto for his voluntaries. When his next mandatory comes around its likely to be Povetkin/Whyte or Brezeale. Why take those tough fights before then. At that stage all the other belt holders would have faced there mandatories and they can decide if the money/times right to unify. Professional boxing is a business after all.
