Glen Johnson is the man

I like Johnson alot but I think he's slowed down over the years. Although he beat Green in the tournament, I noticed that his age appears to have caught up with him during the Cloud fight.
If Bute is able to box like Froch did then Johnson will lose another one by decision, the question is can Bute box well enough to keep Glen off him.Comment

Thats why i think he is a hall of famer,people point out his losses but dont realize he was working full time construction through most of those losses and the majority were highly questionable decisions.A true warrior
The people he's fought after the fight will be:
Roy Jones
Bernard Hopkins
Chad Dawson
Antonio Tarver
Carl Froch
Tavoris Cloud
Clinton Woods
Lucian Bute
Eric Harding
Daniel Judah
Julio Cesar Gonzalez
Sven Ottke
Omar Sheika
Allen Green

I agree, he seems to have faded a bit and it showed in the froch fight especially and the cloud fight as well. Allen Green fight almost doesn't count because Green freakin sucks.I like Johnson alot but I think he's slowed down over the years.

The difference here with Bute is his chin is still suspect, as he's been KO'd before in the 12th round by Andrade (but escaped with a win somehow) so he'll have a better chance than against froch I reckon.Comment

He did well the first 8 rds of the Froch fight he was catching him with nice flush right hands,problem was he seemed out of gas after the 8th and Froch simply took over the fight.I agree, he seems to have faded a bit and it showed in the froch fight especially and the cloud fight as well. Allen Green fight almost doesn't count because Green freakin sucks.

right exactly, johnson shouldn't be running out of gas after 8 rounds so I figure that's age catching up with him. He never had stamina issues before.
Maybe some of that is cutting down to 168 too, although he started to look a bit sluggish against Cloud as well as the fight went on.Comment

Hopefully he can pull the upset and leave Canada a champion,then get a nice payday from a Ward fight or a Froch rematch.right exactly, johnson shouldn't be running out of gas after 8 rounds so I figure that's age catching up with him. He never had stamina issues before.
