NEW YORK (جنوری 11, 2015) – یہ گزشتہ جمعہ میڈیسن اسکوائر گارڈن تھیٹر میں, Bahamian middleweight contender, Tureano جانسن (18-1, 13 کوس) captured the WBA International اور WBC Silver عنوانات, with a bruising victory against Colombian contender Alex Theran (17-2, 2 کوس). Johnson thumped the former Olympian Theran over five rounds, dropping him once in the 4th round, then again in the 5th. Theran, who suffered an injury and could not return for the 6th round, was taking a beating before bowing out of the bout.

Rated WBC #8, ڈبلیو بی اے #12 اور آئی بی ایف #12, Tureano Johnson is looking to step up and challenge any of the champions in middleweight division. After beating a solid fighter like Theran, and being robbed in the Curtis Stevens fight, Johnson is confident he can beat any of the current champions at 160 پونڈ.

“مجھے لڑنے کے لئے تیار ہوں جیناڈی Golovkin, Miguel کی Cotto, Jermain ٹیلر or any other champion out there,” سعید Tureano جانسن. These are the type of fights I would like to pursue. ڈیوڈ Lemieux is also on my hit list. I’m here to take over the division. Everyone knows I should be undefeated so I’m going to leave no doubt about it every time I step in the ring. I can’t afford to be robbed again. With Gary Shaw putting me in a great position, I’m going to make the most of every opportunity. My goal in 2015 is to become a world champion.”

“Tureano Johnson is marching up the rankings and should be applauded for his fighting style.” کہا گیری شا. “He’s the type of fighter everyone wants to see. I’m going to push hard to get him back on TV, hopefully against a guy like Gennady Golovkin. Johnson is a force in the middleweight division and you will see him in some big fights coming up.”
