    [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Not often do two former world champions agree to fight one another.

    On February 23 at the Lake Charles Civic Center, in Louisiana, Reggie "Sweet" Johnson (43-7-1, 25 KOs) from Houston, Texas, will face Julio Gonzalez (41-4, 25 KOs) from Huntington Beach, California. At stake is the vacant IBA Light Heavyweight title.

    I'm questioning the "rarely agree to fight each other" part.

    Reggie Johnson dropped that decision to Jones back in '98, '99??

    And Gonzalez has been losing them hard decisions recently.

    These guys obviously need the money. Hope its televised, buried on an undercard somewhere.....in......Nebraska.
