    Douglas underestimated Holyfield (either that, or he just didn't care)

    Glen Johnson vs. Roy is an excellent call, tho Glen is not an ATG (he may come close tho, his career isn't over yet). I rewatched the fight a couple days ago. I think Roy said something like he didn't train boxing at all for this fight, only his conditioning... 'to clear his head' from the KO loss to Tarver. They thought Glen was gonna be a build-up opponent en route to a rubber match with Tarver, they thought Glen was a weak paper champ because of his losses... boy were they wrong. Glen Johnson always comes to fight, win or lose.
