Glen will win or get robbed by decision,why hes to busy and if chad dawson couldnt keep him away all night Froch wont either....

[G-DOGS]

froch may very well win, but athletic is stretching it.

Froch isn't athletic? He's a world champion boxer, right? Pretty impressive considering he isn't an athlete, in your mind.

hey douche....athletic as in a fighter being more athletic than his peers. more than an average athlete for the sport, an athletic boxer........ala a chad dawson, manny pac, fmj, sergio martinez...rjj....etc.... they are athletic fighters, and much more athletic than the normal fighter. Froch is far less athletic than these type of fighters.

I want Froch to win because Froch vs Ward finale will be more interesting but I won't be surprise if old man can pull it off.

This gona b a great fight but idk im slightly leaning towards Froch..... but froch cant let abraham get on the inside the pocket cuz thats where Glen johnson can work that body and has those great hooks he lands but if its a long range fight i think froch given he has a ******* jab good power and overall movement ...and mind the guy's stamina and endurance and he has great heart and the guy has a chin very tough SOB mutha!!!

Style wise, this is an interesting fight. I really like both guys, so Im looking at this as unbiased as possible. I think Froch has an advantage because there are more ways for him to win. With Glen, you know exactly what you are going to get. What Im trying to think of (and my brain isnt working today) is a fight where Froch had to fight a guy who brought constant pressure and knew how to apply it. Anyone want to point me in the direction of that fight? And not ambush fighters like AA, actual take 2 to land 1 pressure fighters.

I see a close fight. The fight hinges how well Froch can keep the distance away from Glen. Once Glen gets in often, no good....

Calling a world champion boxer "athletic" is a stretch in your mind, and I'm the douche? You can try and justify it, but that was a moronic statement.

I just hope the refs don't screw Glen Johnson.

Nicknamed "The Road Warrior" for his in-your-face style, durability, fundamental foundation and willingness to fight any opponent at any time and any place, 42-year-old Jamaican-born, former light heavyweight world champion, Glen Johnson of Miami spoke to BoxingScene.com recently concerning his June 4, Atlancit City clash with England's WBC king Carl Froch.

This could be a great fight, I cant wait for this. You guys who are writing off Johnson are nuts, I like Froch, but his only standout performance has been against the very limited Abraham. Glen brings it, this should be a cracker.

WARRR, ummm..... BOTH GUYS !!
