Clinton Woods v Glen Johnson - The BBC says it's true!

[skel1983]

Three is little doubt that Woods has improved considerably since the 1st 2 encounters, the question is has Johnson declined at all??

Makes for an intresting fight!

that's the way to do it though...wait till a guy gets too old and then pounce on him....couldn't beat him in his prime so wait 3 more years....most trilogys are done inside of 2 years for all 3 fights....this guy waited.....to make it worse he got wupped in his hometown....

Listen mate, there was no third because Johnson moved on to bigger things!!! Woods is a small draw, he has nothing to offer a fighter other than a World Title hence why he is fighting Johnson!! Get your facts right mate becasue i tell you one thing Clinton Woods has the biggest heart in boxing, he fought RJJ in his own back yard in 2002 for almost peanuts, while RJJ was paid in the millions, Clinton Woods would fight anyone at anytime.

Johnson's options fight Woods again for peanuts or move onto Tarver and RJJ, mmmmmmmmmmmmm wonder which one id pick?? Dont make judgements on subjects you nothing about.

exactly...there was no 3rd fight because he didn't deserve a 3rd...not that Johnson moved onto bigger things..that was just a coincidence...you draw with and then beat a man in his home town you BEAT him soundly...I was eluding to the fact that Woods is looking at this fight as a revenge fight a fight to erase the past 2 fights with Johnson....but it won't be...It will be a fighter in his prime against a fighter on the decline....no matter what the results are everyone knows Woods couldn't beat Johnson in his prime...that's what I meant by the whole Trilogy thing....too much time has passed for this to be a legit trilogy....mate

Fair enough mate, you talk alot of sense there, he didnt deserve a third match at that point, but Clinton is a top guy and leaves it all in the ring and i respect fighters like that and now he has the IBF Strap after a great win over Hoye, i feel he deserves another crack at Johnson who i believe is no where near shot and is not far off his best i honestly feel it is 50/50, you can see Clinton has come on so much and fights with Johnson and RJJ has made him better IMO, it showed how much he has improved with his stoppage of Di Lisle ast time out who he struggled to stop in 10/11 last time they met two years ago, but for this will be a fight i cant wait to see between two guys imo will fight anyone anywhere, just wish we had more fighters like this in boxing.

Not sure what point your trying to make, but if you think Woods has somehow been in waiting for Johnson to start to slip you couldnt be more wrong. Woods and Johnson are very similar in that they will fight whoever puts the most bread on the table. It should also be noted that whilst Woods has aparently been waiting for Johnson to slide he has taken on and beaten two or three men few thought he was capable of

CC he was the bookies outsider against Hoye and Gonzalez, i think that shows how much he has come on in last couple of years.
