King KJ Prepares To Defend His Crown
Obviously, KJ Noons is our kind of fighter. While he has enjoyed considerable more success in MMA he does dabble in boxing and we dig that.
For the time being, though, his boxing career has been put on hold. Makes sense considering Noons shocked the MMA world in November by defeating Nick Diaz and capturing the first-ever Elite XC 160-pound title. He’s kind of like a big fish in a small MMA pond and a small fish in a big boxing lake.
His first title defense comes on 4/26 against veteran Yves Edwards in Hawaii and, today, we catch up with Noons while later in the week we’ll feature a discussion with Edwards on the upcoming bout.
Some of the topics we spoke to Noons about were:
* Will this fight air on CBS?
* His thoughts on the CBS deal
* The revival of Yves Edwards’ career
* His ever-improving ground game
* Nick Diaz’s negative comments following their bout in November
* When he plans on boxing again
All that and much more. Check, ch-check, check ‘er out.
KJ Noons – 03/10/08
