    good, not much more Johnson can do
    he's always been good enough to test the top dogs
    occasionally, he was good enough to win
    woulda liked to see him get that Cloud decision, thought he edged it
    but even as a trial horse, his time is up
    if he couldn't win that last fight, time to go
    hope he stays retired, sick of old guys killing themselves in there

      Tell me about it. There is a fight card next month near my house that is featuring Bert Cooper.

      Cooper is 46 and has been in more wars with heavyweights who were actually good, than just about anyone around.

      It's sad when they need the dough or are disillusioned and just can't let go of the cheers of the crowd.

        A HOF'er?

        Really?

        I have to disagree. Glen was cool, but he's nowhere close to the Fame.

          it takes at least five years for your name to appear on the hall of fame ballot

          glen johnson is not a hall of famer.
