    Cloud beats both of those guys at this stage.

        Yeah, Glen is like an older, slower, and less powerful version of Cloud and I don't think Mack's chin would hold up against Cloud's offensive pressure.

          Glen Johnson doesn't fight like Cloud does. The only similarity that they have is that they are both aggressive.

            yea...i think he stops them both to., especially mack, he fades and crumbles under pressure easy. i thought he was gonna get stopped against chris henry a couple of times. glen johnson is extremely shopworn now and he has tremendously slowed down overall in the past year. in cloud's last two fights hes fought extremely durable tall fighters. woods was underrated. he had a good snapping jab and could take a helluva punch and cloud rocked him badly a few times and its rare woods gets hurt like that...a prime roy jones couldnt even hurt woods like that..it was onesided but roy still never hurt him like that. i say cloud takes mack outin about 5 rounds. i see cloud taking glen out in about 10 rounds.

              cloud should beat both, but you never know. johnson might pull out another top performance in what will most likely be his last title shot if he loses. when hes on form johnson is like a runaway train, he can slip shots, smother clouds power and put heat on him all night. we never seen cloud deal with none of that, he has talet but hes still untested.

                Cloud's looking pretty good lately. Glen Johnson is a good veteran and might give him problems but I don't know about Mack. Seems like it's Cloud who should be fighting for the title though.

                  They will both be coming forward looking to pressure though Glen's defense is better.

                    hes far from untested. woods definitely tested him. and cloud proved he could take a good punch and keep a hard fast pace all 12 rounds throing over 1000 punches, which is very rare for a light heavyweight. lets not forget cloud was coming off of a year layoff going into the woods fight which in my opinion had alot to do with his subpar defense.
