Tarver, following his meetings with Roy could not have been under-rated. Over-rated? possibly. He can't seem to win the close big ones.
But Johnson, if anything, was under-rated. In his two meetings with Woods, he was not given too high a regard; and Woods was and is not highly regarded either. When, he met Roy, many sneered and looked beyond the match. Until hours ago, many still thought he was not cast from good mould.
If I have to rate Johnson based on his last two fights, I'd rate his heart and resolve as stratospheric; his skills, pedestrian.
