    He was hurt .. not so bad as the Froch - Groves fight. Groves shattered his overrated chin, he was faling down almost unconscious with closed eyes .. no stop .. then he hit Groves a bit .. stop.

    Johnson's hands were up in a defensive position when the fight was stopped. I don't think it should've been stopped.

    Johnson had a bobble head and couldn't defend himself

    Would have liked to see it go a couple more seconds, just to see if Johnson was capable of recovering the same way he had in previous rounds. Tureano wasn't given the benefit of the doubt, and that doesn't sit entirely well with me.

    Could have went a few more seconds but the way he looked up against the ropes I don't think it would have mattered much
