Johnny, in my opinion is a dichotomy of personas. At A&M he was legend. With the Browns he was a huge letdown to the franchise. After football he has been in and out of various media with most of the world, outside of A&M, feeling he's well overstayed his welcome. A fight against an influencer/blogger? I suppose it's par for the course. My gut says this ends badly. If there ever was a do-over in life it's Johnny. Maybe Tyson. Who knows, maybe even Josh Hamilton, although Hamilton and Tyson were at the pinnacle of their respective sports. Such a waste. I can only pray for him and hope that one day he meets an athletic partner, passes on his genes, and continues to support A&M.

To be fair ... he did better than most of the Browns QBs

I was speaking more to the fact that the franchise invested a 1st round draft pick and he thought it was cool to go to Vegas with a pron stache and try and be incognito gambling and partying while his team was back in Cleveland studying film. He just never wanted to grow up. This is partly on him. Mostly on his parents and youth / HS coaches for allowing this behavior. Shame that he never had discipline and accountability interjected in his character.

Really hate to see this. I doubt he has the resolve to truly train himself into top shape. He's gone from one of the greatest college football players EVER to a complete sideshow. He must really need the money.

How long 'til he's biting the heads off of chickens?

Train himself? It's in 2 weeks.

Time slips away. The San Antoinio A&M Club interviewed our prospective scholarship recipients for the class of '30 a couple of weeks ago. It occurs to me these will be the last class of Aggies to remember seeing JFF play. From now on future classes will only see films. I know I'm dating myself saying films.

Bro probably shows up to the fight coked out of his mind lol

He should open a steakhouse in CS.

Tonya Harding territory.

I'll put $50 on Johnny.

Quick feet, strong arm/throwing motion, big hands

KO

Interesting this guy made a name for himself by doing everything in his power not to get hit. Now he is stepping in a ring where there is much less room to run.

He actually has or had the perfect build to be a good boxer. Incredibly strong lower body with less bulk up top. Why he was good at breaking tackles, hitting a baseball, good at golf, etc. His base is naturally very strong.

I don't think he can get his endurance up enough in two weeks, though. Boxing is the most exhausting activity I have ever done by a long shot.

Hope he doesn't get KO'd

Lol he's fighting Bob Menery. Bob is 5'-7" and 170lbs soaking wet.

JFF is 6' and 210lbs.

People hating on Johnny for this are wild. He's getting paid a boatload of money to whoop this dude's ass in a match that is hosted by Dana White.

I agree...from what I can see, Bob has no athletic background aside from golf. Small in stature. If you have ever boxed, it's exhausting but a relatively short deal. I would take the money all day to go fight someone 40 lbs lighter than me for 10-15 min.

How can one watch it? Price? Wonder if Montgomery County Ags would want to watch it together but where - someone's house?

So this will be a bloodbath?

And it's not even a boxing match, it's an MMA fight.
