约翰逊是拳击运动的忠实粉丝，去年秋天，他甚至担任了拳击比赛“Brawl Or Nothing” 的解说员。
约翰逊一直在与拳击教练罗尼·坎图(Ronnie Cantu)一起训练。坎图和约翰逊都与圣安东尼奥的拳击传奇人物杰西·詹姆斯·雷哈有着密切的联系。
这位前肯塔基大学野猫队球员经常出现在圣安东尼奥的拳击比赛现场，他是圣安东尼奥拳击手马里奥·巴里奥斯的粉丝，并在比赛中为他加油助威。
这是一种有趣的现象，运动员将休赛期的体能训练与个人爱好结合起来，类似于蒂姆·邓肯(Tim Duncan)与杰森·埃科尔斯(Jason Echols)在Echols Fitness（现为Xen Wellness）一起训练。邓肯将2014年NBA总决赛第一场的胜利归功于他的跆拳道训练。当（当时的）AT&T中心球馆空调出现故障时，邓肯的身体能够承受高温，这得益于他在一个当时没有空调的场馆进行的训练。由于训练带来的身心准备，即使考虑到他的年龄，他也处于最佳竞技状态。
一些NBA球星会在休赛期打高尔夫球或网球，但也有一些人选择在拳击台上挥洒汗水。
让我们拭目以待，看看约翰逊重返球场时会是什么状态。

Johnson is a big fan of boxing, so much so that last autumn he served as a commentator to the “Brawl Or Nothing” boxing event.
Keldon has been working out with boxing coach Ronnie Cantu. Both Cantu and Johnson have ties to San Antonio boxing legend Jesse James Leija.
The former Kentucky Wildcat has seen at boxing events in San Antonio, is a fan of San Antonio boxer Mario Barrios, and supports him at his fights.
It’s an interesting take on how athlete’s merge offseason fitness with a personal passion, similar to Tim Duncan’s workouts with Jason Echols of Echols Fitness, now Xen Wellness. Duncan credited the Game 1 win in the 2014 NBA Finals to his kickboxing training. When the air conditioning went out at the (then) AT&T Center, Duncan’s body was able to handle the heat due to training in a facility which, at the time, had no air conditioning. He was in prime athletic shape even considering his age due to the physical and mental preparation of his training.
Some NBA stars play golf or tennis, yet some mix it up in the ring.
It will be interesting to see what shape Keldon is in when he returns to the court.
