    I had Johnson winning all 3 woods fights but the two he lost were fairly close as was the Dawson fight, you may say that someone with 12 losses isnt very good but anyone who says that hasn't followed Glen very well, his style was very different in those days he was much more of a stand of boxer and he changed his style late in his career to become a pressure fighter and it suited him much more, I like fighters that have a few losses.

        I'm not saying Johnson is not good. He's very good. I'm just saying this sympathy and complaining about robberies is ridiculous. Maybe he has been robbed a few times, maybe he has been in some close calls, but around here you'd get the feeling Johnson would've never lost had it not been for shaky judging.

          I lost to Mr. Crust. I bet on Taylor over Froch. Big mistake.

            People have compassion and a soft spot in their heart for an underdog

              Me too,it was close and probably looked worse because Johnson had him going a couple of times.This is classic boxing scene.A talented young fighter has 1 off night and suddenly he is a fraud.

                  I don't feel sorry for him but he has been on the **** end of many decisions throughout his career. Whenever he was in a close fight that could have gone either way, he's almost always gotten the L.

                  I love Glenn. He's a really tough guy and a good fighter. I always enjoy watching him fight.

                    I'd say Johnson-Dawson seperates those who can do math and those who can't. If you can do math, you know Dawson won a close decision.
