And just because Glen Johnson has lost to lesser fighters means nothing, haven't you heard of the old saying style makes fights ? Kirkland Laing gave Roberto Duran a boxing lesson, yet Kirkland Laing lost to much lesser fighters than Roberto Duran, and Roberto Duran beat much better fighters than Kirkland Laing. Plus most people wouldn't have even mentioned Kirkland Laing in the same breath, as Roberto Duran before there fight.
Glen Johnson is a much better pressure fighter, than the fighters i mentioned above. And is the master at rough/physical fights, i think he would give Joe Calzaghe a very good argument. Aslong as he doesn't get old overnight because he is reaching that stage, but if Glen Johnson fought the sameway as he did against Chad Dawson. Expect a very tough fight for Joe Calzaghe.
