    I know Pascal beat Dawson but I personaly think Pascal is much better at LHW and has improved in general. The fight was also close and got stopped early without Dawson having a chance to stop him. Johnson also clearly beat Dawson in the first fight (the only one I've seen).

    A fight I really don't wanna see as I love both guys.

    Froch UD's Johnson convincingly and KO's Ward in the final, im with Kessler when he makes Froch the favourite to win the S6

    I hope Johnson can win. I haven't seen him fight in a while though.

    Froch hits hard but is an over rated puncher imo.

    :lol::rofl:patsch I can't believe people are overrating Johnson here. It must be because He KO'd hypejob Green.

    Listen, Froch is going to trounce him. It will be a one-sided mauling. Johnson got torn to shreds by Clinton Woods FFS. :verysad:barf:dead:patsch

    Have you seen any of the fights between Woods and Johnson. I personally had Johnson winning all 3 only to be done by hometown decisions.

    How is Johnson a hype job, he's the complete opposite to a hype job he's spent most of his career being brought in simply as an opponent. Johnson has beaten RJJ, Tarver, Griffin, Hall, Woods, Harding and many more. He is a proven world class fighter with a style that is very difficult to look good against.

    Only 1 fighter has ever trounched Johnson and that was Hopkins. Froch is no Hopkins.

    Its a hard fight for Froch thats without doubt and Johnson winning it would not be a huge upset.I think Froch will get the win though almost certainly on a close decision.

    Glen will have to do two things, cut the ring down, maintain his consistency, which might be a little more difficult for him at the age he is now. Johnson will have to be consistent with his aggression.


    Froch's might have all the dog in him that Glen does, but also have the durability to withstand, the heart not to capitulate, the youth (stamina) to be more active, the power to get Glen's respect, albeit not enough to hurt him, and just enough movement to offset his aggression.

    Its not a forgone conclusion either way imo, I'm still undecided on who will win.

    OP said that Johnson will be in Froch's face. That's fine enough for Froch! He is troubled more by movers and technical boxers. Froch will break GJ down and should win a UD.
