    Whoosh! Comprehende Ingles? That's the point. He is 39 yet he ****ed up a young talented guy in his prime.

    But Johnson is almost at the end of his career, while Dawson's is starting. Dawson has a lot to improve on and this was a big learning experience from him, none the less Dawson could of fought better. And officialy Dawson won.

    Morale victory for Johnson I was more impressed with him than Dawson who hung on to win a slim points decision, but Johnson was the star of that show and well its true a 25 yr old tiger isnt supposed to go tooth and nail and be almost out and on the defensive with an old man. That kind of slows the Dawson train by a lot. Maybe a Diaconu has a chance? maybe a lot of others do also and I bet after tonight a lot of fighters feel the same way. Dawson was supposed to be alot more than what he displayed tonight.

    WTF? You're the one implying that the difference in age should've been the difference in this fight, saying that a 39 year old should not have put up this good of a fight against a 25 year old. And I was simply just pointing out that age had nothing to do with it, because Glen Johnson isn't your average 39 year old. What are we arguing about here?

    Diaconu has a puncher's chance. Dawson is still good, but RJJ he isn't.

    If Johnson had C- hand speed he would have put Dawson down instead of just four chicken dances and several cases of the drunken line walks!

    Nah, man. Glen is just tougher than most of the poseurs out there. Dawson will ruin a bunch of dudes soon enough .... he looked fine. Johnson has been in with Hopkins, Jones, Tarver, and now Dawson .... he's a stud. Dawson is going to beat Tarver at this point in his career. But Chad would annihilate Kessler or Calzaghe - neither would ever take the fight. Tonight's Johnson would destroy both Kessler & Calzaghe even if they fought him together.

    Dawson was the big winner tonight, last time I checked he won the fight and gained a TON of experience.

    That shouldnt make a diffence in the Judge's decisions --- but it did.
    Todays scoring is ****ed.
    They favour --- "Cuties" over "Real Fighters."

    No, Johnson didn't win ****, their are no moral victories at his age. If Glen Johnson didn't have your respect aleady, you weren't paying attention to what he has accomplished in his career.

    Moral victory my ass.
