Will anyone here be surprised when Glen Johnson KOs Carl Froch?

Impressive use of the word hitherto. Green k given. Haha, thanks. I don't mean to sound like a plummy git all the time, it just comes naturally to me.

Froch was meant to be KTFO in the Abraham fight, remember? Old man Johnson is getting his ass whooped. I doubt he's getting his arse whooped, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a similar fight to the Cloud one where Froch's non-stop aggression eventually forces Glen to go into a bit of a shell from which he can't work himself out.

Because it's fucking stupid to try to argue with one's prediction. WTF is the point of arguing with a prediction. Now about a past fight? A fight that just happens, or what you think about a fighter? Be my guest. But a fucking prediction? WTF are people's problems? It's a prediction we're talking about here. I don't care about that. If you're wrong you're wrong, if i'm wrong i'm wrong. That's it. NSB has a whole bunch of cry babies that like to argue too much about nothing. Not sure why you're getting so worked up about people debating other people's prediction posts unless they're insulting when they do so. Otherwise, who does it harm? It might even help one to consider hitherto overlooked factors in a matchup and thus improve one's overall knowledge of the game, future predictions etc. I know it's happened to me several times, and is one of the reasons I continue to post here. Once more, if you don't care what people think, and presumably don't expect them to care either, then why are you posting on a discussion forum. It's just empty words, right?

yea, he has stamina issues now, but what did you expect at his age and against cloud? who hits harder than carl froch froch was dropped against taylor, hurt against dirrell, kessler and chicken legged vs abraham unless froch can unleash a big workrate of big combos of hooks and power that cloud was demonstrating vs johnson, there is no chance in hell, and even then he would'nt stop johnson froch has ko'd only bums and unless you wanna count taylor who is out of it by the 6th, he really doesn't have the power i think i've said this before, but joe calzaghe has more "KO's" than froch no way...in hell, he ko's johnson All of the fighters that you mentioned who hurt Froch also have knockout power, where as Johnson is an accumulation puncher. Also there were times were he stunned both Kessler and Pascal, both have concrete chins. He badly bloodied Dirrells nose with a single jab as well. Hes very heavy handed.

And Froch doesn't get hit a lot. We all know he graduated from the school of Pernell Whitaker. Lol Froch lost to Dirrell and Kessler already, shot Taylor was beating him on the cards when he gassed out in the 12th. Froch is nothing special. No surprise if Johnson wins, no surprise if Froch wins. See, Froch is one of those odd type of fighters that ordinary and even fairly experienced boxing fans tend to ridicule due to his horribly awkward and ugly fighting style, but who still ends up giving "superior" boxers the fights of their lives. At some point you need to revise your opinion about a guy no matter how much against the grain he may be to your preconceived notions of what is and what isn't a good boxer. Froch gets results, even if he doesn't look like Pernell Whitacker when he does so.

The shot that rocked Glen was a punch he didn't see coming, and Froch has a lethal right uppercut. Also. you failed to acknowledge my point on Johnson being a horrible finisher. He had Judah and Dawson hurt badly, but couldn't finish.

Your title says "when" Geln Johnson KOs Carl Froch, as if it is pre-determined to happen. Nothing is impossible when two men collides in the ring, but I think Glen KOs Carl is highly improbable. Yes I will be surprised if it does happen. :boxing:

Why are you on a boxing discussion forum if you don't care what anyone else thinks? Because it's fucking stupid to try to argue with one's prediction. WTF is the point of arguing with a prediction. Now about a past fight? A fight that just happens, or what you think about a fighter? Be my guest. But a fucking prediction? WTF are people's problems? It's a prediction we're talking about here. I don't care about that. If you're wrong you're wrong, if i'm wrong i'm wrong. That's it. NSB has a whole bunch of cry babies that like to argue too much about nothing.

But he managed to dominate Abraham who is one of the sports hardest hitters without getting hurt once. Exactly. People are shitting on Abraham at the moment, but he's still easily the most dangerous puncher in the division and the fact that he wasn't able to land literally more than a handful of punches on Froch must say something about Froch's ring generalship, if not his defensive prowess.

It's no use arguing about this now. I mean if you have an opinion that's your opinion. I said my opinion, I don't want anyone trying to counter my opinion with what they think. You don't see me quoting any one in the thread about their initial opinion because I really don't care what they think. Let's wait to see what happens in the fight. Hopefully Johnson just wins but I wouldn't be surprised if he stops Froch. I mean why would I be surprised? Really, you'd be surprised? Surprised about a KO? What Johnson has 5 KO's now, Froch never been hurt now? What is this? Why are you on a boxing discussion forum if you don't care what anyone else thinks?

Johnson gets hit a lot. Froch will hit him a lot. He will get some licks in of course, but I don't see him winning this. And Froch doesn't get hit a lot. We all know he graduated from the school of Pernell Whitaker. Lol Froch lost to Dirrell and Kessler already, shot Taylor was beating him on the cards when he gassed out in the 12th. Froch is nothing special. No surprise if Johnson wins, no surprise if Froch wins. The only surprise here would be Froch stopping Johnson. That's it, that's the only surprise for me. If that happens i'd be shocked.

wouldn't be surprized if johnson stops froch. froch gases. This is a curious statement. The only time Froch "gassed" to my knowledge was in the Kessler fight when Kessler was ripping him with bodyshots. The bloke's got some of the best stamina in the game.

When did that happen? think it was the twelvth(how ever u spell it)

I was very impressed with Johnson against Green, but I think Froch takes a decision

Carl Froch isn't Allan Green man. I will be rooting for Glenn to win the whole damn tournament, but I dont see it happening. Yeah, Johnson's one of my favourite boxers to root for, simply because he's an old no nonsense throwback fighter with a take-on-anyone mentality, but I'm not gonna let that cloud my judgement. Froch outboxes Glen to a UD.

wouldn't be surprized if johnson stops froch. froch gases. errm...no he doesnt...:nonono:

Because Jermain Taylor dropped him once and hurt him another time, Dirrell stunned him all night. Dirrell and Taylor don't exactly have 100% KO percentage. Johnson can really hurt you. Froch's defense is shit, he gets hit too much, Johnson likes to swarm his opponents with punches. The chances of Froch getting knocked down/knocked out in this fight is high imo. So I would be surprised. Dirrell didn't "stun Froch all night". He stunned him once in the tenth or eleventh (can't be bother to rewatch that stinker to be sure) and it was due to catching him unwares with his speed rather than any awesome power he may have possessed. No, Taylor and Dirrell don't have "100% KO percentage." Who the hell does? Taylor can bang, as plenty of fighters can attest to, and him dropping Froch in no way incriminates Froch's chin as being less than solid. Johnson can bang as well. Guess what, so can Abraham X2 and Froch dealt with him just fine. Froch's defence will never be his most talked about aspect, but he's not been stopped yet so he's obviously a lot harder to hit clean than you think.

wouldn't be surprized if johnson stops froch. froch gases.
