    Yes, on a split which was avenged.

    What about the previous SEVEN YEARS?

    On what planet, can: Reid, Joe, Ottke, Brewer, Mitchell and Branco etc, be a better group of fighters than: Roy, Dariusz, Hill, Toney, Griffin and Tarver etc??

    On what planet, was it more worthwhile for Joe to starve himself in order to fight the likes of Mario Veit twice, instead of being in the above mix??

    You must haven taken LSD.

    Castro ran Johnson out of the division......also a 38yo Castro knocked out Harmon quicker than anyone previous iirc.

    Well explain why he couldn't cut it at 168....losing to guys like Sheika yet he could go on to beat the best at 175.....The exact best at 175 you claim JC superstar avoided.

    Haha!

    You are absolutely hilarious.

    This is Baileyesque.

    Are you two related?

    Spanked = 2 controversial splits in ARGENTINA?

    Brilliant.

    Keep them coming.

    Did he lose twice to Castro, only to disappear for 2 years, only to return at 175 and win a title?

    If I'm wrong please tell me.

    He split 5 fights with Tarver and Woods.

    He beat a faded version of Roy who'd just been knocked out by Tarver.

    Again, what about the other 7 years that I've highlighted?

    Do you seriously think he'd have beaten a pre-HW version of Roy?

    Are you seriously telling me that Glen splitting fights with Tarver, somehow proves that the fighters from group B were superior to the ones from group A?

    You're obsessed with Johnson because that's all you have.

    Until Joe beat Kessler, Eubank was his greatest win. A faded Eubank who'd already been beaten by Collins, a guy who lost to a guy who supposedly couldn't cut it at MW.

    Reid was probably his 2nd best win. A guy who lost to Malinga and Branco.

    Brewer was a guy who was knocked out 3 times by B and C class fighters at MW, before winning a belt at SMW, which was one of Joe's best wins.

    Joe's biggest rival - Ottke, struggled against Brewer, with many people believing that Brewer had won.

    Now please explain how those fighters were better than Roy, Dariusz, Hill, Griffin and Tarver etc?

    I'm using Johnson as one of a number of examples.

    However....give it a rest for now, there's good fights on....go get a few beers and enjoy them.

    Yes.

    He lost 2 CONTROVERSIAL SPLIT DECISIONS in Castro's home country of ARGENTINA.

    You didn't see those fights. And I know that. Because if you had, you wouldn't keep mentioning them.

    How does losing a controversial split constitute as being spanked?

    How did Castro run him out of the division?

    Has it occurred to you that he wanted a new challenge?

    And why would he have opted to fight at SMW with relatively unknown European fighters, when guys like Roy, Hill and Nunn etc were at LHW?

    Nobody ducks Ottke, Joe and Reid etc, to instead fight Roy and Tarver etc.

    The SMW division didn't have a lot of respect for the majority of Joe's reign.

    It's hilarious how you've tried to portray him as having avoided the division.

    Again, if Joe had beaten Reggie Johnson, it would have been a top 3 win for him at the time.

    So why do you keep saying that Reggie got spanked?

    No, all you have is Glen Johnson.

    That does not mean that Reid, Ottke, Brewer and Mitchell etc, were collectively a better group of fighters than Roy, Dariusz, Hill and Tarver etc.

    It's absurd.

    He got ran out of the division. Lost twice to Castro and iirc once against JDJ.

    I'm going to leave it there now.

    How does having a break before seeking a new challenge = being ran out of a division?

    How does losing a close, controversial split = being spanked?
