There are reports that Harold Johnson went down injured apparently due to a back injury, whether Walcott blew Johnson’s back out due to what he did in the ring without being hit, or Walcott was beating him up and Johnson quit and faked an injury, or whether it was genuinely nothing to do with Walcott’s ability and him forcing the injury and he was injured, who knows? But assuming the latter. When they’re both in their primes, and injury free, Who wins this matchup?
From reports it seemed Johnson won the first but Walcott won the rest of the fight until the "stoppage" It would have been interesting to have seen a rematch though with both fighters healthy. Although I do think that even without the injury Walcott would eventually find a way to beat Johnson down the stretch. Too tricky and clever for the more methodical Harold Johnson. Funny enough Walcott also knocked out Harold Johnson's father in the SAME ROUND. Like father, like son.
