    Im sure it wouldnt bother any body if it were at this weight other those too anal who would say its a super middle weight conttest. Their not in a title fight.

    Then there would be no excuses.

    fuk that....i think Glen is stupid for moving down in weight in the first place...hes gonna be drained..he didnt eat for 36 hours just to hit 175 in his last fight...think about hitting 168..

    this is a SMW TOURNAMENT...168LB LIMIT..I LIKE GLENN BUT HE SHOULDA STAYED AT HIS WEIGHT CLASS...TOO OLD TO MOVE DOWN WHEN YOUR STRUGGLING TO MAKE YOUR OWN WEIGHT ANYWAYS

    Imagine you are an aging fighter with just abit left and you are offered good money along with an opportunity to prove to yourself and others that you've still got something left. Glen is doing what any mortal would do in his position, take the fight. So leave Johnson alone. He's fighting Allen Green, its a 50/50 fight in my opinion. Does he belong in the tourney? No, he doesnt. He belongs in a 175 S6..
    Anyway don't hate Glen for trying to feed his family, hate showtime for not snagging George Groves or another young prospect at 168. I would love to see Groves whip the **** out of Green.

    might be a bit early from Groves give him a little while longer. Green is a decent pro.

    I cant understand johnson wanting "in" from a financial stand point but hes 41ish? if hes struggling to make 175 then hes going to be dead at 168 hes gunna be something close to Oscar was v Pac.

    If Bika hadnt got DQ's awhile back he would have probably got in
