~ Scorecard for BCD vs. Glen ~

[CutMeMick]

What do you know, after rewatching the fight for the first time and keeping score for the first time, I had Johnson winning. Here is my scorecard.

Dawson: 1,6,7,8,9 = 113
Johnson: 2,3,4,5,10,11,12 = 115


The primary difference between my score card and the scorecard of others was that I gave Johnson more of those early rounds then most as I felt he was blocking most everything early and I thought that he stole a few of those rounds late. Rounds 2,4,6 were the closest rounds in my opinion. Also didn't find the 12th to be very close which a lot of others did, I watched it 3 times now and each time thought Johnson won convincingly, again he was blocking better in the late rounds and outworked Dawson because Dawson wasn't firing the jab much in that round even on the outside.

However, above all I think this was a great night of boxing one of my favorite fights of the year this one was. Loved it, very good action from two of the better and more likeable fighters in all of boxing. Hopefully we can see a rematch one day, Glen can be a factor for 5 more years. He looks better now then he has at any point in his career and that is amazing for a fighter with his style.

Dawson on the other hand has all the tools, really has improved into a great fighter, knew he would. He'll be champion for a long time to come imo, very good boxer, I think he rolls all over Tarver and no chance Hopkins or Calzaghe take their chances with him.

Thanks amat,
