I agree, the only debate is on how close it might have been. Forrest allowed himself to be bullied in the first half of the fight and under the best case scenario for him he might have won by a point. No robbery for sure.Comment

Just to clear things up with my vote
I ve voted Dawson won it, because at the time i thought he had it by a point but it really really could have gone either way and maybe if i was watching it at a normal time and sober i might have scored it slightly differently....
Johnson gets the W in the re-match

it wasnt a robbery, but given Glen's fight victory, i think he's due a close fight decision, especially in his 'hometown'
but thats not how boxing worksComment

Johnson didn't get "Sturm'd" but I tend to favor the fighters who landed the cleaner, harder shots. Dawson was hurt a few times, and Johnson was not. If you look at the two fighters the next day, you would have a hard time guessing that Johnson was involved in a pro boxing match the day before...Comment

i always refer back to fights like
Hopkins v Taylor
Dela Hoya v Mosley 2
it dont matter how strongly u finish [IE Glen Johnson ] if u conceed to many of the early rounds and thats exactly what happened in the Hopkins v Taylor
Dela Hoya v Mosley 2 ,Dawson v Johnson fights u deserve to lose
if u watch these fights without scoring u may pick Johnson etc but if u actually get a pen a paper and score the fight u will see that Dawson won at least 6 rounds of this fightComment
