    12 Johnson 10-9

    114-114

    spot on donaire, 114-114 was exactly how i and a lot of observers scored that.

    Johnson-Calzaghe would be joes easiest payday since manfredo.

    Johnson is a come forward, middle of the ring brawler. JC is 46-0 because he is soooo good against these types of opponents and simply fights these guys at angles and in aggresive consistent flurrys.

    The fight wont happen because it just isnt attractive enough to persuade either HBO or Calzaghe, but if it was to it would have 120-108 calzaghe written all over it!!
    Gonna call bullshit on this, Johnson is a tough fight for anyone, he won't clam up like Manfredo, his output will put to shame what Hopkins and Jones did, and he's a cagey old man. I still think Calzaghe would win on points, but saying it would be easy is ridiculous.
    Have to agree on that one.Johnson and easy have never occupied the same arena.Even at this stage,I think Calzaghe would have his hands full.No time for the theatrics and mocking in that one.Johnson would make him fight throughout.

    Agreeing with Sheep,both Jones and Hopkins have had Joe down recently,and neither of them are known for their power,I cant see the walk in the park part with Johnson

    I doubt Joe will face Johnson but if he did he would beat him handily...

    Joe was knocked down by Jones and Hopkins but they were really flash knockdowns, especially Hopkins...Joe was never really hurt.

    I see Joe beating down Johnson over the course of 12 rounds. I think he would win a wide unanimous decision.

    Johnson's style is to walk you down and he is going to have to walk through a ton of bitch slaps and pitipats that come in at light speed.....Joe has some pop in those pitipat/slap punches.....How else was he able to hurt Lacy, Kessler, Jones, and Hopkins (Hopkins wasnt as evident but why do you think he tired and at the end was so cautious, had to call timeout a few times and roll around on the ground etc, he felt the power).....

    Calzaghe avoided Johnson before. He'll find another way to do it again.

    Calzaghe was hurt by Jones, he admitted as much. Jones caught him with a shot (a forearm really) that he never saw coming. He recovered well though.

    If Johnson can hurt Dawson, he can easily hurt Calzaghe
