    are you talking about ?

    I'm a big fan of that man, that doesn't mean I will applaud some poster because he fantasizes that Glen is a better puncher than given credit for when it's just not true

    I'm outta here, you can't argue for ****, so now you resort to calling me a Glen hater and all kind of weird stuff

      do you still think you have a case, honestly ?
      PPL rate his power as average so yes I do because he is stopping guys all of the time but happens to use pressure to land those powerful right hands, the vids are there you lose.

        johnson has average power but a great workrate.

        his power is not underrated.

          He doesn't have huge raw power just great punching technique(his right hand is great) imo.

            Johnson is good at wearing his opponents down, they usually crumble in the later rounds, the pressure Johnson puts on for 12 rounds is pretty tense. He's not a one punch artist, I believe he softens them up which leads to the KO's. RJJ was caught in the temple, it wasn't a brutal punch, it was just a perfect one.

            Green was worn down eventually, he took so many shots beforehand, it was obvious Johnson was going to land the Kayo sooner or later.

              He just had this look after a couple rounds like he was in way over his head, and the weight loss hadn't hurts Johnson's performance at all either. He looked better than he did against Cloud at 175 but that was probably because of Green more than anything.
