    Johnson is stopped in around 12 ,after a bit of a gruelling match. Stevenson catches him coming in and drop's him from out of the blue.

    Jackson? Did you mean “Johnson”? If so, I disagree completely.

    I was a big fan of Johnson's action style while Stevenson has avoided tough fights (must be a reason Stevenson wont fint anyone) Johnson by stop

    Pops is one of my all time favorites and for that reason alone I'll go with him. He'll slap Adonis around like a pimp slaps his 'hos:eaea:

    You people need to actually watch some Johnson bouts, I think that would be a good place for us to all begin debating at... :lol:

    Debate? You haven’t responded to any of the substantive arguments about why Stevenson might beat Johnson. Your argument so far seems limited to the fact that he was a tough guy who fought in a very deep era.

    And FWIW, I’ve seen several Marvin Johnson fights and I’m shocked that you think he hit as hard as Adonis Stevenson.

    Stevenson a lackluster reign . Hasn't made a mandatory defense in 4 yrs. Yes he is huge puncher but i question
    whether he is up to a serious challenge ? Marvin Johnson had no fear in him and fought the best and never back
    down from a challenge. Johnson proven against better opposition Stevenson not. Johnson pts.

    Very fair points regarding their career accomplishments (or lack thereof) but what do you think about their styles and skill sets?
