SG: What did you think?
Glenn Johnson: Fonfara is better.
SG: Better tonight?
Glen Johnson: Better because tonight is my last night.
SG: Congrats and thank you for the last fifteen years. What was missing tonight?
Glen Johnson: I needed to be more steady and apply more pressure and I couldn’t. He’s a strong kid and I just couldn’t do it. If I can’t do it the right way and the way I should be able to I’m not going to do it anymore.
SG: How good is this kid Fonfara?
Glen Johnson: He’s pretty good and he can hit and take a punch. He could use a little work on defense but I think he’s good.
SG: Can he fight the top guys at 168?
Glen Johnson: I like to think that I only lose to the best fighters out there. And, unless I’ve fallen that much, I think he’s pretty good.
SG: Again, thank you for all of the memories and for the last fifteen years. Future Hall of Famer Glen Johnson for all of the right reasons.
