Interview with Glen Johnson

Morning everyone, I'm interviewing Glen Johnson for our monthly magazine. If anyone wants me to ask their question post them here and I'll do my best.

Sensible questions only please.

Thanks guys.

A lack of responses hampo... Think it might have been the demanding of sensible questions only? Probably a few similarities with the reggie Johnson one of a short while back. Must be something on the name johnson that means you don't get the rub of the green from the judges.

1. Given the number of controversial/ close decisions you were in the wrong end of. What do you feel would be a fairer w/l Column for your career?
2. After an unbeaten start to your career, you came unstuck against Hopkins, Also the only man to stop you. Was he too much too soon? Or simply the best guy you fought?
3. Your career faltered for a while afterwards... Was this confidence, or simply a combination of tough matchmaking and tough decisions?
4. Did you ever feel like walking away from boxing?
5. You had a renaissance and won the light heavy title after a couple of tough fights with our own Clinton woods, and then went on to knock out of Roy jones and beat tarver. On paper this was the pinnacle of your career. Which of these is your personal highlight, or do you have another?
6. Do you have any bitterness with the politics/business of boxing that meant you had to be the road warrior and take the lumps, or do you see it that in the end, it helped make you what you are?
7. Having fought them both, did you have a bet on froch groves?

Ask him is he nervous ahead of the World Cup next week?

How far does he think England will get?

Does he regret the dreadlock phase we went through a few years back?

Does he think Liverpool will sell him this summer?

.. And after hampo asked so nicely

Gets boring taking time to arrange these interviews for certain posters to waste time asking stupid questions Milky as I'm sure you can appreciate.

1. Do you read forums before interviews to prepare for some of the questions?
2. Does it put you off if you see a bunch of silly questions or people belittling you? (asking cause I have a vague recollection of someone pulling out of an interview/not really being productive during and wondered if it does affect them.
3. What do you feel about the state of boxing at the moment with all the belts, authorities etc.

Do you know how luscious your voice is? Can you read me bed time stories?

Given their relative performances against you, were you shocked by Froch's performance vs Bute?

What is your favourite CCCUUURRRED.......MEEAAAT?

Who kisses nicer out of Hopkins and Tarver?

Stevenson v Kovalev, who would you back?

Do you think anyone has noticed you're going bald?

Given his performance against you, were you surprised to see Tavoris Cloud fall apart so completely against Hopkins and Stevenson?

Which character from Sex and the City is the most you?

You were stopped against Bernard Hopkins in what seemed a rather conservative stoppage by the referee but who that you faced hit the hardest?

You seemed to me to be a bit of a throwback fighter - one of the few top-level, have-gloves-will-travel types of your era. Did you consciously try to emulate the fighters of yesteryear, or was it simply a matter of having to confront people in their own backyard if you were to get on as you wanted?

Are you hoping to challenge one of the Cruiserweight champions in the near future?

During your last 5 boxing matches did you at any point consider throwing a punch back at your opponent?

Great questions by milky, looking forward to the answers to a couple of those.
