Johnson doesn't and hasn't ever hit hard enough to stop Froch. Kessler was probably the biggest puncher in the division and he was only able to get Carl's attention on a few occasions, even though he was a close but clear winner overall. I can't think of anyone currently in the 160-175 divisions that could get the job done to be honest. Cloud's lack of power has been shown up by Woods, Johnson and Zuniga..... plus he'd be getting his ears boxed off for the full 12.
his defence could be better, but his fight style is to fight with his hands down, he has to sacrafice some defence to be effective
What Gives you the idea glenn johnson can not hurt froch????? glenn will be able to take everything froch will dish but not the other way round, glenns been hit by bigger punchers, frochs power is world class but its not going to faulter Johnson froch's chin is suspect on his arse by taylor Hurt and shaken by andre dirrell Out On his feet by kessler shaken up again by abraham in the 12th if glenn gets through maybe he'll finish what the others coudnt:think froch is at a big disadvantage in this fight because hes facing a guy who works well on the inside froch has never shown he's a good inside fighter
:rofl FFS i never get a shortage of laughs on this forum. Now Froch has a glass chin, and Johnson is the second coming of Julian Jackson
How's he got a suspect chin though? he got put down by Taylor, but he also took a lot of punches and got up just fine after going down. I don't remember him being out on his feet against Kessler Dirrell caught him and got a bit of a reaction, but not much, Dirrell was the only man to floor abraham TWICE Abraham never "shook" froch up, he hit him flush, and froch got out of the way. It's not like he does a chicken dance every time he gets hit ffs. Does Bradley have a suspect chin? he was floored by holt and looked dead for a second there.
no He was down heavily against taylor and he was hurt numerous times in the fights following to twist my words with all this glass jaw bull**** is nonesense i think froch can be hurt and i think johnson is capable of hurting him thats all there is to it. no i wouldnt say bradley has a weak chin but i wouldnt call it granite either, he has an excellent ability to recover
Taylor can punch, belive it or not. I don't think froch has a suspect chin, he fights elite fighters one after the other after the other, his style means he takes a lot of punche, occasionally he feels them. to me a suspect chin would be like a defensive fighter, who doesnt get hit a lot, but when he does he seems to get wobbled a lot. a guy who takes a lot of punches by nature whos only really been hurt once does not have a suspect chin
Why ? I wouldnt say Froch is some granite jawed unstoppable beast but at the same time he can take a punch from a world class boxer . Dirrell and Taylor troubled him with the pace of their punches as much as their power and suprised him more than truly hurt him and AA has the power to hurt anyone at the weight especially if he's going for broke knowing he's behind on points . Froch's biggest problem is his workrate which is where johnson can get the better of him on the inside .
Seriously, Johnson ain't winning, he will get some rounds, but not enough, he is too small for Froch, who is really a huge 168lb'r Apparently Johnson is 5'9" that means he is going to be eating some jabs. If i was froch, when johnson comes inside i'd rough-house the **** out of him tbh. the old man will wilt.
same as bradley beat an old unfocused struggling with the weight witter, we can all make excuses if taylor thought his stanima was a problem he should not of fought. frochs win over taylor was better than bradleys win over witter imo
