You mean like he died when taking shots from legit 175lb punchers? Christ people are delusional. You really think an accumulation puncher with heavyhands at 160 punches harder than Tarver or Roy Jones?
It depends on which Johnson shows up. At Johnson's age, it's going to be an up and down thing. He can look good in one fight and suddenly look old the next fight. If Pavlik fought the Johnson that fought Dawson, then I say Johnson has a very good shot at winning.
