On the latest “Story Time with Dutch Mantell” podcast/YouTube show, Dutch discussed the issued between Booker T.
For those of you who have not been following, Booker threatened legal action if Johnson continued to “spread lies” about him. Johnson has claimed that he has a story to share about Booker T’s time in prison when he was a teenager.
Dutch Mantell on whether Booker T would be able to take Ahmed Johnson in a real fight:
“Booker T would beat the sh*t out of Ahmed. Booker T, when it comes to throwing the hands, he can go. He really can go and Booker T stayed in shape,” Mantell said.
Mantell admits to saying something about Booker and then apologizing for what he said. “At least Booker T, I said something a while back he didn’t like, but I did realize I was wrong and I apologized for it. He’s tough. He’s a tough guy and I think he would mop the floor with Ahmed. So Ahmed, if you hear this, hey, I’m just stating my opinion so don’t threaten to beat me up because it’s not gonna happen anyway, but Ahmed, I wish you the best of luck. I really do.”
Things have been quiet lately between Johnson and Booker T so it could be that they’ve decided to move on from taking shots at each other publicly.
