Two Beltway Boxers we haven't heard from in a while will try to turn things around in bouts coming in June.
On Friday, June 7 at the Turning Stone Casino in Verona, NY, DC super bantamweight Yieta Johnson will face undefeated John Franklin of Kansas City, MO in a four-round contest. Johnson (2-3, two KO's) has not fought since being knocked out in the first round by Raul Lopez in January of 2010 in New York City. Johnson has never gone the distance in any of his previous bouts. Both of his wins and all three of his losses have been by knockout.
Then on Saturday, June 8 at the Civic Center in Biloxi, MS, DC cruiserweight Richard McCombs makes his return to the ring and he will face debuting former amateur standout Javonte Charles of Memphis, TN. McCombs (1-3, one KO) has not fought since losing by first round TKO to Mario Flores in November of 2010 at DC Star (now known as EchoStage) in DC. McCombs is a relative of former WBC Welterweight champion Maurice Blocker.

Gary this fight can give me a career if God willing I win.I am prepared to fight hard as the date of the fight is the day my mother died in 2011. I am very aware of my position coming in but I sure plan to roar up and upset. God bless us all and may we all continue to support and encouraged one another.
Best wishes Rich
Gary we know there not the best of fighter's but you don't have to down play them smh Digital.
I agree there still DMV fighter's the way you presented this post was poor Gary.
I give it to puffy comes he will fight anybody he lost to very decent amateur stand out fighters. I hope he prove us all wrong shit make it out of round 1
Just didn't want anyone to think I'm in anybody's pockets. Of course, I hope both men win.
I heard Richard purse is 300.00 is this true Gary?
Richard isn't a cruiserweight he will fight 175lbs he will weigh in way below the contract weight. 300.00 get serious don't believe everything you hear.
Haven't heard what the payment will be.
I appreciate the support and I will do my very best to get the victory.
I should weigh in roughly 188lbs I was 179lbs when I accepted the fight.
Why go in under weight dummy
Mccombs God got it bro your very humble and may the victory be yours in Jesus name Amen
Best wishes to both fighters june8
