The_budweiser Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Frank Buglioni and Callum Johnson will clash on March 24 for Buglioni’s British light-heavyweight title. It was originally proposed by promoter Eddie Hearn that the winner of this bout would meet the winner of a Hosea Burton-Anthony Yarde fight and fight fans were immediately salivating at the prospect. Yarde, of course, is promoted by British rival Frank Warren and problems inevitably arose when Warren dismissed the idea and asked for Yarde to get a direct crack at Buglioni instead. http://www.ringnews24.com/2018/01/22/can-frank-buglioni-beat-undefeated-callum-johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_budweiser Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? I remember watching Johnson at the Commonwealth Games and he looked really good. I expected big things and thought his career would be further on. I know he had problems with Warren, injury's and his dad passing. Maybe a step to far with being out the ring for so long with this being his first fight back. It's a good match-up and I'm looking forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kite1345 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? I think it's possible for Buglioni. It's not like it's the first time he's faced an unbeaten fighter. Although you could argue that Hosea Burton just got overconfident and got caught.

Kite1345 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? That question was answered quickly. Props to Johnson for answering it in a devastating fashion. Although given the brevity of the fight, I don't think it told us much about Johnson. The fight reminded me of the match between Scott Cardle and Lewis Ritson; both Cardle and Buglioni unwisely decided to get into a shooting match. I meant to post on this sooner, but the topic kind of got buried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaconfan Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? Could Buglioni win a rematch? I very much doubt it. Johnson looks way too powerful for a guy that takes ten to give one. Respect to Frank for guts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kite1345 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? I also have a great deal of respect for how Buglioni reacted after the fact. He was up front about what happened. I don't know what's next for him, but I look forward to seeing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaconfan Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? I prefer to watch someone like Buglioni than even the biggest earner of all time in boxing. Even if he loses, he is exciting, like Gatti, but not quite in that league.

chaconfan Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Re: Can Frank Buglioni beat undefeated Callum Johnson? Callum looked awesome against Frank, and looked like he could blast out almost anyone. However, it is hard to judge, based on his very low quality of opposition. Have a look at his record. His team should have more faith in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
