World-rated light heavyweight boxer Glen Johnson says he would move up in weight class to the cruiserweight division to tackle fellow Jamaican O'Neil Bell if the money is right.
Johnson won the little-regarded International Boxing Association (IBA) light heavyweight (175-pound) title with a victory last month over fellow Jamaican Richard Hall but he is in search of big money opportunities now. In an interview with the BoxingTalk web site recently, the 37-year-old Johnson was asked if would consider moving up to the 200-pound cruiserweight division where Bell is the undisputed champion and Frenchman Jean-Marc Mormeck, the former champion, remains a very marketable contender. |
