Thread: Oh $h!* Glen Johnson is fighting next week

Looks like a last minute card

Glen Johnson is fighting "Fabulous" Freddie Moore in a 10-rounder at Light Heavyweight

Johnson should walk right through Moore, Moore is 1-5-0 in his last 6 fights getting KOed
in 4 of those losses.

A keep busy fight I guess? He needs bigger fights at this stage in his career.

I'm sure it's a stay busy fight, but his last fight was only 2 months ago cut him a little slack bro........

2 months ago? I didn't know that! Who was it against,my memory fails me. If so,then good for him for staying active.

Montell Griffin, Johnson won by KO if I remember right.........

I dont know what it is about johnson....i just don't like this guy. Pretty good fighter though, this fight seems like practice.

What's not to like about him?

He goes to peoples backyards to fight them as a rule, never ducks anyone and always presses the action.

I quite like Johnson, he's a proven warhorse. Seems like a keep busy fight nothing more.

I hope he gets to bow out with another big money fight. I expect a final fight with Tarver or another bout with Jones are most likely but I'd like to see him in with Chad Dawson, he'd certainly test the young fighter's chin.

Like i said i'm really not sure about what it is...just one of those strange things....I've rarely picked against him though.

I agree, Glen Johnson is a tough SOB. He needs to be steping it up a little

Truth is not a lot of guys want anything to do with Johnson...He has the goods and the experience to derail a win streak and set a guy back....Johnson is a hell of a fighter who IMO if he sat down in a division and did not take so many last minute bouts throughout his career he would have been more successful by now...Not that he hasn't had a good career but In a sense where he would actually have been considered the top of this era.....

Anybody who consistently fights top rated fighters isn't going to always have a perfect record. How many times fighting top ranked opposition, should at least be weighed or ratioed against the losses.
