Tavoris reaching for the Clouds

Phil D. Jay
WBN Editor
Tavoris cloud fight’s this weekend hoping to add another knockout to his already stand-out record.

The Tallahassee Light-Heavyweight takes on former IBF Light-Heavyweight Champion Glen Johnson for the Jamaican's old belt.

Cloud has a superb 20-0 record with 18 knockouts and recently retired another former holder Britain’s ex-champ Clinton Woods winning 116-112 on all three cards a year ago.

Whilst Johnson (50-13-2), has lost an amazing 6 out of 7 World Title shots at Middleweight, Super Middleweight and Light-Heavyweight and is hoping that this time he will be a two-time champion.

Although at 41, time doesn’t seem to be on Glen Johnson’s side, the Miami-based Jamaican has mixed in better class than the fresher 28 year-old Cloud and will hope his experience will tell on the night.

The fight takes place on the Devon Alexander v Andriy Kotelnik undercard at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri, USA this Saturday and is live on HBO.
