Description:"Bunny Johnson embarked on a professional boxing career in 1968 and quickly established a reputation for being a extremely powerful and determined fighter. Despite giving away 23lbs to Richard Dunn, he won an exciting eliminator for the British heavyweight title in 1973. He took the title in January 1975 when he knocked out Danny McAlinden. Bunny enjoyed success in the light-heavyweight division and won the much-coveted Lonsdale belt outright. Among his many activities, he presently works within the community supporting young people who have an interest in sport." Pogus Caesar, February 2003
