Fightnews.com is reporting that Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson did not make the prescribed 118 pounds necessary for his title shot at WBO Bantamweight champion Jhonny Gonzalez.
Johnson weighed in at 119.5 while the champion made weight at 117.5. Johnson was fined 10% of his purse ($4500) and the bout has now been changed to a 12-round non-title affair.
Very disappointing. Johnson has received more press about this matchup then just about any bout he has been in.
