Tureano Johnson Providing
Great Sparring For Daniel Geale
Gary Shaw Productions middleweight contender, Tureano
Johnson (18-1, 13 KOs), is now the chief sparring partner
for Daniel Geale (31-3, 16 KOs) as he prepares him for his
upcoming WBC title clash with Miguel Cotto (39-4, 32 KOs).
Johnson, who captured the WBA International and WBC Silver
middleweight titles in his last bout, is currently ranked
WBC #2, WBA #5, IBF #8 and WBO #13. He gives his thought on
sparring with Geale.
"Daniel Geale is a special fighter who possesses a lot of
boxing skills," said Tuerano Johnson. "He's looking real
sharp in the gym and his power is there. I can feel the snap
on his punches and I think Miguel Cotto is in for a big
surprise. Everyone is counting Geale out but not me. Gary
Shaw brought me in to test Geale's skills and after a few
days of sparring, I believe Daniel will be crowned
champion."
"I brought Tureano to the gym to spar with Geale because
he's a good look to emulate Cotto and he's one of the top
fighters in the middleweight division," Gary Shaw said. "The
feedback I got from Johnson about sparring Geale is very
positive. I'm confident that Daniel will use everything in
his playbook to come out victorious."
Tureano Johnson is currently riding a 4-fight winning
streak, three of which came by stoppage. Highly ranked
across the board of all sanctioning organizations, Johnson
is on the cusp of landing a big fight.
