Fighter of the Year for 2004 goes to.............

I want to say Glen Johnson. Let's face it. He has 9 losses on his record. He seems like a push over journey man. From what I hear, 5 of his 9 losses were close decisions on his opponents home turf that probably should have gone the other way. Two of his draws should have gone his way. I did not give him a chance against Roy Jones. He kept putting on pressure and did not relax for one second and scored a 9th round KO! Some will argue that Roy Jones did nothing in that fight. Then Johnson goes up against Tarver. I was rooting for Johnson, but I figured Tarver would give him a boxing lesson. This ended up being another close fight that could have gone either way. Johnson kept putting on pressure to win a split decision. If someone told me at the start of 2004 that before the year was over, Johnson would have back to back victories against Jones and Tarver, I would have laughed in their face.
