    I'm just kidding, but I am already psyched about Froch/Johnson, and I will be rooting for The Road Warrior!!

    I think this might turn out to be the best fight of the entire S6. I do not believe anyone ever brought the pressure to Froch the way Johnson will. On the other hand, it's been quite a long time since Johnson beat a world class opponent.

    I think Ward/Abraham is a given. AA is going to get his ass kicked. Anything else would be down right shocking.

    Froch/Johnson is not that kind of fight. I told you guys not to sleep on Old Man Hopkins in the Pascal fight. Now I'm teling you DO NOT sleep on an old Road Warrior in the Froch fight. This is a 50/50 affair!

    I see Froch winning either way.. If he does what he did with AA jab/move he'll win.. If he has a tear up I see him winning too.

    I agree with you on the ward fight though. AA won't be able to deal with the movement/speed and will look pretty one dimensional

    I think Johnson has a good chance to pull out a points decision....and I'm a big Froch fan. Styles make fights!

    I was surprised how good and fresh Johnson looked against Green at 168 compared to Cloud at 175.

    However, Froch is a totally different beast than Green and if he sticks to what McCracken tells him to then I expect Froch to take the decision.

    It's gonna be a good fight! Both guys got chins and can crack, Johnson has the edge on experience and knowlegde, Froch has it on youth and power, I'm going with Froch by UD...

    Not so sure. Johnson will not allow him to simply bang away without getting his licks in. I expect this fight to look more like Froch/Kessler than Froch/AA. I think Glen will keep coming and coming. If he sits and simply trades with Johnson, he might get put down. But I do think Froch will pull it out in a very tight decision by fighting smart.

    Glen Johnson should always be seen as a live opponent. He and Hopkins are cut from the same cloth.

    Johnson has no chance. Johnson does not win close decisions on the cards. This is well documented. He does not have the power to stop froch. This is well documented.

    Froch needs to beat him better than hopkins did all those years ago.

    Froch's style is all wrong for Johnson

    People seem to underlook the fact that Froch can on the backfoot as well be the aggressor. He has the wider array of arsenal to adapt to any danger Johnson can or will provide.

    Froch is also extremely well conditioned mentally and he wont fold like Greene did against Johnson. If Froch is forced into a firefight i believe he will be able to throw that extra bomb to outwork Johnson

    It's odd but this is the first fight in a very long time where I favour Froch going in although Johnson is a sentimental favourite.

    My guess is that Froch takes out Johnson in the championship rounds.
