    Cloud is not a mobile type of fighter, but he should let the old man use his legs, tire, then Cloud can pick his shots.

    What a fight. I hope Glen wins but I only see it happening if Cloubs tires but in his fights with Woods and Gonzalez Cloud unloaded on them all night and never slowed down.

    I did. At their absolute fastest punches, I think Cloud seemed a bit faster, but as the fight wears on Johnson's jab seems to be the most consistently fast punch of the fight.

    Exactly. I can't figure out why Cloud's corner is fine with him sitting on the inside in this fight. He should be moving on the outside and picking his shots and letting Johnson wear out. Johnson is potentailly going to win this fight if it stays on the inside.

    Johnson is so much better than this dude. Only reason it's competitive is because of age. Let's get back to the jab & bodywork Glen

    GJ back to working the jab. GJ's jab just gives Cloud tremendous problems. The swelling around clouds left eye doesnt appear to be getting worse. rd7 a fairly close rd much as rd 4 was imo. I like GJ's jab landing cleanly , I think this is the difference in the fight so far
    10-9 GJ
    68-65 GJ

    Exactly. When Cloud loads up for a fast shot, he seems to be punching faster, but Johnson is picking smarter shots.

    Round 7

    Cloud back to using his jab a bit, circling and popping. The two serve as mirror's reflections with their left hands low and their shoulders dropped and thrust forward as though ready to lean into a pocket exchange. Johnson lands the 1-2 whenever he wants. Cloud landing with primarily just the jab.

    Am I crazy or is 4-3 for Johnson a decent scorecard?

    I'm not trying to score this fight anymore...Just going to watch and enjoy the show. Close fight. It just all depends on what u look for when watching a fight.
