That was a great fight and a razor-thin decision IMO. It reminded me of Berto-Collazo in that you had Johnson doing the relentless shoeshining thing and trying to steal rounds, whilst Cloud was throwing (but not always landing cleanly) the harder punches but in less volume.
So I had it 115-113 Cloud, but I had to re-watch some of those rounds (particularly the fourth and tenth) and change my mind at times. It all came down to what I preferred - and that's such a subjective thing. I don't think a draw, or as much as 116-112 either way, would've been a bad call. Very, very close fight.
