Johnson is just so, so old. He's been on the way to shot since Dawson and that was years ago, just a continual slip ever since. A tough fighter, but you outwork him. This is a bit sad really.
yeah his corner should have thrown the towel in at some point over the fight johnsons just taking a shit ton and landing one or two here and there just wont do itQuote:

So Johnson gets robbed again!
He'll have had harder sparring wont he?
I like Cleverly a lot. I hope he steps up next year.
Groves continues to improve. Good performance, would have stopped most super Middleweights.
Yep. Total robbery. Johnson's 2 landed punches per round were clearly the more effective punches. I gave the rope a dope round 10-6 to Johnson. That was an obvious strategy and 80% of the punches were blocked. Thus an easy Johnson round.Quote:

Pavlik looks a bit chunky and slow here. At SMW he also seems to have lost a little height.
Good win for Groves, I thought he started stupidly, but he got the trip well.
(Memphis) just another "robbery" on Johnson's record ;D
Groves you need to forget Abraham!
Abraham will slaughter you and win easy points atleast
Groves did look decent, but this was a shell of Glenn Johnson who apparently got more beaten up in his last fight. 4 losses on the trot for Johnson and no win over a top fighter in years. Green was never a top fighter.
Really!? I'm sorry but Abraham aint all that. He is pretty one dimensional and Groves will give him plenty of angles. I'd fancy Groves to take it on points. Wouldn't put him close to the other 3 yet though.Quote:

well and he would be favourite to beat Abraham , more or less using the same style.
