So Why Is No One Giving Glen Johnson A Chance?

Glen Johnson is a tough veteran fighter but i think while he has a chance

Bute will use his speed and youth to his advantage and win a ud, but it

will be a closer fight then most think.

 

Precise punching is the most dangerous. It's how KO's are created, and
not from brute force.

Mr fairy:smooch

 

The only thing that seems to be consistent about the sport of boxing is that when everyone is certain about an outcome of a fight, something entirely different happens. Johnson is always a live dog, and Bute has fought no one. Sure, Bute is the big favorite with his youth, size, power, southpaw stance. But boxing is boxing, and Johnson is a consummate pro.

 

GJ definately has a shot but its like 70/30 in Butes favor. I like Bute to win but I wouldnt be mad if the old man shocked the world.:bbb:bbb

 

Because overrated Cloud beat him

 

johnson would not of beat him in his PRIME...that is why he has got no chance

I got to wait till it gets on utube cause i do not have showtime,,,so for me collage ball all day saturday, with sunday a download of the fight,,,I just hope the whole fight gets loaded....

My perdiction 7 round KO

 

Johnson is giong to be KO'd he is too old and has no business being down at 168.

I just hope he isn't hurt too badly.

 

I don't disagree Russel, however, didn't you make the same thread on Froch-Johnson? This feels like deja vu.

 

I agree with the latter. Cloud is a brute and i dont think any top Lt. Hvywt wants any piece of him. But Bute is a more effective puncher due to his timing & accuracy....

 

Booradley is on the mark with this one. He's failed to win when stepping up in the A caliber-ranked opponents, since 7 years back. I give him a B+ on his average performance, an A- at his best. And i think he gave his best vs Froch.

If he's on top of his game, he will be at A-. If he's at an average performance, he'll be at B+. If that will the case, it will be obvious IMO, since Bute should be in the A/A+ caliber, but just never proven. Glen Johnson will serve as a good measuring stick. Remember, he had 12 competitive rounds with Froch and it was NOT a shutout....

 

If Johnson was five years younger, yes he would. He looked great in 2008 when he fought Dawson, that Johnson would have gave Bute hell.

Johnson as of now is getting older.

 

Many people say Bute gets hit a lot. He faced some big punchers before. Still, some posters like you think he has a weak chin. I think you just don't know Bute enough to evaluate his chin. Johnson won't knock him out with one punch.

I see Bute winning but he'll have to fight hard to do it.

 

Bute has looked great and Johnson is 43.

 

glen is just getting too old. moving down in weight an all that i dunno i think its time for him to hang it up after this. im going out on a limb here an saying that bute knocks johnson out from body shot or shots
