Ronald Johnson (C).

DAVAO CITY -- Ronald ?The American Dream? Johnson of United States is going for a knockout as he trade punches with Saul ?The Phoenix Assassin? Farah of Bolivia for the vacant Global Boxing Organization heavyweight title on June 15 at The Enderun Tent at the Azuela Cove in Lanang, this city.

?I think its second or third round that the knockout will come,? said Johnson at the DSA Forum last Thursday.

Johnson said that he will be aggressive but will be careful since Farah is not a patsy boxer.

The 33-year old Johnson arrived in Davao City last Wednesday and he immediately went to the Elorde Davao boxing gym to work out.

He is expected to continue his daily routine until the weigh-in on June 14 at the Enderun Tent. Johnson has 15 wins with four knockouts and one loss.

He last beat Sergio ?Tota? Ramirez of Mexico by a unanimous decision last July 17, 2017 in the Westgate Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

Meanwhile, the 36-year old Farah (69W-23L-3D, 60KO) is schedule to arrive as of press time. (Lito delos Reyes)
