Froch vs. Johnson on Showtime Saturday - the Super Six continues

I dunno I think Froch may be up, he hasnt faded, and has shown some grit.

Froch looked far better in the 11th too, Johnson looks gassed, which is understandable. Froch could have done more than what he has done though. A bit too close.

Not that I agree, but I'd bet money that the judges have Froch up by several points after 12.

Johnsons DNA should be bottled and sold....Froch merits respect, but his work rate leaves something to be desired. Nice fluid hands, Awesome fight!!!

7-5 Froch.

Froch looked more effective there in the 12th, I got a draw

114 evens

I think Froch just edged it, by like 1 or 2 points. was damn close. Wouldnt be surprised by a draw.

Well just like I said, a tough fight, but I think Froch's going to get a close decision, maybe even split.

Cleaner punches in last round for Johnson for me. I felt Froch was letting out flurries onto the gloves & slipping just past them. I've got 115-113 Johnson, but no complaints if it's a close win for Froch. I fully expect unanimous 120-108 scorecards for Froch then.

Anyone else think a 40 year old Johnson would have owned this fight?

Easy final round for Froch and a solid win, but he should have dictated the fight more. Johnson has never been a knockout artist, he could have stood his ground more.

He might pull it out, but he's definitely not winning at the moment.

I think maybe we're watching different fights...

Perhaps. To be fair, the fight has only had a small amount of my attention because of the hockey game. I thought Johnson looked much better early, but I payed almost no attention to the last two rounds.

Showtime put way too much focus on the few big punches vs the overall ass whoopin froch just laid down. I give him an ok chance against ward . Fight should be in a neutral spot

Whoever loses is going to cry foul. Very close fight.

I didn't score it, but Froch likely by about 4 points. Started slow, but took over.

117-111 !?!

117-111? Is purely a biased scorecard, 116-112 is pushing it but understandable.

Who the fuck scored it a draw? Dickhead! :rolleyes:

8-4 Froch sounds about right. Maybe closer if you score a close round or two to Johnson.

FYI, Zbik - Chavez Jr. are both in the ring on HBO, perfect timing, the fight should start in a few.

I really like the frank, honest post-fight interviews Froch gives.

Edit: Same goes for Johnson.

okay JCC2/Zbik starting now.

117-111 is a truly disgusting scorecard. I'd say that's a 2 point win either way. 116-112 isn't good, but it is just about acceptable. There were some close rounds. No disrespect to Froch who was ever the warrior

Well done to both fellas, more in-fighting would have made it interesting as it's a strength of Johnson's but even without that he must impress most if not all with that performance.

Props to Carl for the combinations, to Johnson for the big shots and to the pair of them for their hearts- good fight!

Thanks Mars, Totally forgot JC Superstars, son, was fighting tonight :-X
Froch and Johnson are class acts

Can you PM me a link?

Johnson has to be the best 40 something wins and 15 losses fighter ever. Soo many close losses.

Freddie Roach looks funny with his red Chavez headband.

JC Superstars, son...needs a haircut

I was in the kitchen, did they say that Chavez weighed in today at 180?

Zbik seems to have decent defense and technique.

Come on Zbik, put Jr's lights out.

I heard he had gotten hair advice from Paulie. ;D

Zbik round for me, he's just plain doing more. JCC2 looks like he has the power to turn this around quick though.

10-9 Zbik.

Zbik's fast.

;D He looks raggedy, it goes flying everytime he gets hit...which is often so far

'hey get back in the kitchen and make me a turkey pot pie' ;D

If Chavez jr wins , with kessler and carl doing the goods ive got a nice 38 pounds coming my way! Well done carl! As predicted a hard faught points win.

Go use the JCC Jr Zbik thread. :p

Zbik again, he's just mopping the floor on volume, I think JCC2's haircut makes Zbik's punches look like they're landing harder.

20-18 Zbik

It's early, but I like what i'm seeing from Zbik, but unless he looks really good the whole fight, he's going to get fucked on the judges scorecard in L.A.

Gonna say sumthin.....JC Chavez part deux is being exposed
