    How hard does Johnson hit?

    Against Green his shots looked bone breaking. On fighcamp you could see the sickening impact of every punch he landed. Either he is ridiculously heavy handed or it just looks like he is punching hard

    I think Froch will win it, but it will be a competitive fight.

    Froch vs Ward could be an exciting fight. Hopefully they will meet in the final and decide who is the best.

    I hope Froch wins. Glen Johnson winning this will just send the super 6 into more confusion.
    Froch Vs Ward And Then Froch Vs Bute is what im looking forward to

    So please Glen, dont ruin this

    I think a younger Johhson would have taken it. Now, I think it is 50/50, or perhaps a little in Froch's favour.

    Like most times that Johnson has been in title fights, he will lose and then claim that he was robbed when he just didn't do enough to win.

    I like Johnson,he's a no nonsense fighter,and will fight anyone anywhere hence the "road warrior" tag.He'll give everything and will cause Froch problems,but i just think Frochs a bit better in all departments and he's improving with every fight.
    If its a boxing match,Froch has the skillset,speed and boxing brain to outbox Johnson.If they go into the trenche's,i think Froch has the power,strength and stamina to outfight Johnson.I think the early rounds will be close,but i see Froch asserting himself after the first few rounds.

    Many of us would love to see Johnson win, but.. Johnson is almost perfect for Froch. Froch loves a good fight it brings out the best in him and I think he has too much determination and ability to come out second best.

    Froch.

    People are reading far too much into Glen Johnson's win over Allan Green.

    If Froch losses to Johnson it would look terrible for Froch

    Just a note on G Johnsons SMW career -
    In 12 SMW fights Johnson has lost 6 of them.
    Johnson has lost at SMW to -

    M Sosa who had 5 losses and 2 draws, and lost his next 2 fights after beating Johnson
    Kiwanuka who had 3 losses and 2 draws, had lost his last 2 fights coming into his fight with Johnson and his fight after Johnson
    Ottke 16-0 who in fairness was an outstanding SMW boxer
    Vanderpool 27-1 who lost his next fight, but in fairness that was at MW to Hopkins and Vanderpool had a good run after
    Branco 38-4-2 who was a world class SMW and became WBA LHW champ
    Sheika who was 19-1 and lost his next fight, though in fairness that was to Calzaghe.

    The SMWs that Johnson has managed to beat
    Campas 3-20-4 coming off of only 2 losses and won his next fight
    Watson 24-16-1, Johnson was his last fight
    Renteria 9-23-5 coming in, whos last 10 fight record before facing Johnson was 0-8-2
    Zimmerman 15-2-0 coming in, who had lost his previous fight and the one after
    A Green 29-2-0 coming in and Johnsons biggest SMW victory

    Its not impressive now is it. Please spare me the robbery talk.
    If any rated SMW losses to Johnson it wont look good on their resume

    A Green 29-2-0 coming in and Johnsons biggest SMW victory To think beating Green was all Johnson had to do to become a Ring rated SMW in todays ratings

    How can you call Johnson the Road Warrior and be serious?
    A road warrior is a fighter travelling with everything to lose and nothing to gain. Travelling to travel for a world title challenge isnt the same as being the champ and travelling to the challenger. Thats a real road warrior, which is what Froch IS being. Johnson never did that.

    Now, tell me about these robberies

    Going with Froch. Lets face it, The Gentelman is not that good. Not anymore at least.
    Bad style match up.

    I like Glen, his a humble and respectful guy and always comes to fight. but he is getting to old. Froch is younger and stronger and have a lot to lose in this fight, so i expect he will come in sharper than ever against Johnson. Froch UD
