While clinging to his life, he lost approximately 60 pounds.Following months of physical rehab, Johnson was cleared by a physician to return to training in Fresno. Johnson’s start will be his first since he scored a crushing 18 second KO on Carl Seumanutafa in STRIKEFORCE Challengers action at Save Mart Center on May 15, 2009.
