Allan Green vs. Glen Johnson added to Lopez/Marquez card

Bob Arum said Top Rank’s fight card featuring Juan Manuel Lopez vs. Rafael Marquez “got bigger and more complete” with the addition of the big Super Six fight matching Alan Green vs Glen Johnson on November 6 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

“I want to thank Lou DiBella and Showtime for adding such a splendid fight,” Arum said. “This will insure that the television audience and the fans purchasing tickets at the MGM will get a full, complete and outstanding night of boxing.”

DiBella said “…with Mikkel Kessler falling, Showtime could not have created a more compelling match-up for Allan Green. Allan has been working for months to reflect his true ability. Glen Johnson is already poised to make 168 pounds and there are very few men more worthy of this opportunity in all of boxing than the Road Warrior. It will be an exciting opening to an outstanding main event.”
