    Very close and technically strategic Fight. This could go to anyone but I selected Johnson by a decision.

    Johnson was strictly a counterpuncher,I'm going for Conn on work rate.

    Bump (because I feel it went under the radar slightly and I feel it’s one of the better matchups at 175lbs, won’t bump again if it gets no more responses).

    Johnson is a bit stiffer and slower, Conn outworks him to a close decision

    Stiff is a good way to describe Mr Johnson, Stiff and Educated but still wooden - he avoided the weights to not get locked up, didn’t spare him.
