    Yeah I sparred him last week.He's pretty good,strong for his size. He's a good inside fighter with good power. He was a stiff jab,and he's a counter puncher.

    I did pretty good.I would jab in,throw what I gotta throw,but then he would tie me up. Something alot of ppl dont do with me,so we were inside fighting most of the time. I sparred him for 2 rounds,then we switched. He's been at the gym for about as long as Ive been going to the gym,and probably more so about 7 months for me.

    I dont know how he fought before,but he seems like someone to be reckoned with. Even with some loses doesnt mean you're out. Look at Glen Johnson and Carlos Baldamir.

      Golden is a small guy compared to Margarito. Sure Golden was a big lightweight. But i've seen Golden get ko'd twice. Once by Ben Tackie with on solid right punch against the ropes. And another time by some other fighter i can recall.

      Golden is a good fighter no doubting that. But he's going up against a bigger fighter in Margarito. Unless he was hydrating himself in those fights. Margarito is going to hurt Golden Johnson.

      I've sparred with Bantemweights that were able to hurt me. Trust me, never underestimate any boxer.

      Exactly,you answered what I was thinking of saying. Also 5'10 isnt all that big once you actually see it. I sparred a 5'10 guy yesterday,and I couldnt tell a major difference besides the reach,which wasnt too hard to slip. As most know Im only 5'5,and for me to say that should mean something.

        Mosley koed him and Vivian Harris koed him. Both of these fight happened at lower weight classes. Since moving to welterweight Goldens record is 7 and 2. He is 4 and 0 in his last four fights, 2 UD and 2 K.O's.

            The Mosley fight i think was just a body attack that finally did him in.

            The Tackie fight that **** was a crazy ko. I never see his fight with Harris.

            Vers, you got his fight with Diaz?
