    Both guys have been on a lay off even though Cloud's is longer, so that shouldn't be an excuse for the loser of the fight. I think Cloud is gonna work Johnson over and show the world why Dawson don't want none.

      The delays and inactivity are bad for a guy who fights like him.

      I imagine he will get hit more than he probably should.

      I can see Cloud winning a decision, of which Johnson will complain to the commentators after the fight.
      i can't see cloud winning a decision. cloud isn't a boxer. he is a come forwad type of guy. this is gonna be a all out war.

        Well, he won a decision against Clinton Woods, and you can definitely argue Johnson is a better fighter than Woods.

          he actually does have some boxing abilities and he has a pretty solid jab.

          I think he's going to have to win a decision since Johnson's face is made out of steel.

          If I remember correctly Cloud's last fight he was very open to the jab. He said he's been working on that a lot but we'll see, johnson doesn't have much of a jab anyways but shows that he's hittable. Both have great chins I see this going full 12 rounds.

            I think Johnson is better than Woods, but Woods is still a durable fighter like Johnson is. Even though Johnson got robbed in the fight of where they called it a draw, their third fight wasn't a highway robbery.

              to me he won a decision against woods because he simply couldn't knock out woods. i didin't see any boxing abilities. he came forward for most of the fight.

              these are things that make it hard for me to pick cloud over glen. i want to root for the kid but i know how glen is.

                I don't see a 12 round fight.

                Both fight aggressively and both are a little rusty, they will get into a firefight and Glens chin has been thoroughly tested.

                The kid is in for a surprise IMO.

                    i'll tell you this. if cloud can stay calm, pick his shots. & control glen from the outside here & there, he can eek a decision. but if he comes forward in his typical fashion.........he's gonna be jamaican lunch meat.

                      I like both guys, so I have a hard time rooting for either one of them. Johnson will continue to get peanuts for his hard work probably even if he were to win this fight. If he won, I'd like to see Bute fight him or maybe even Pavlik so the dude can get a good payday and retire in peace.
