Yusef Mack vs. Glen Johnson on Berto-Mosley undercard

[quote=Violent Demise;823966]

Oh jeez. I've been watching Mack on ESPN for years. I've watched most of Johnsons fights since he lost to Hopkins in 97.

Than how can you not have an interest? I mean Johnson is still competitive in his fights. Hatton ain't in his. Yet you still watch him. Now if you going to tell me you only watch Hatton to see him get knocked the fukk out than I with you there. Go Hatton, go.

Are you serious dude? You're knocking my user name?? How gay is that?

You must be American.

regardless of whether my boy got KO'd out by either of the best two lb 4 lb fighters on the planet, I don't just abandon my support of Hatton. I'm a mancunian and he'll always be an idol to me.

I suppose you're the sort of fight fan that drops his fighter as soon as they lose?

As for Mack, he sucks, simple as that.

Johnson is a journeyman that is headed for some serious brain damage. It's time for him to hang them up.

But Hatton is not, right? Well maybe not if the heart attack gets him first. You must from the UK. Only they would consider a fighter they never met in there life an idol (don't get no gayer than that). And don't lie that you have met him. Cuz you would of mentioned that shiit already.

I've lived in America for the last 14 years and never had the chance to meet him. I have a signed glove of his, if that helps you a little.

You seem to be a bit of a wanker, and certainly a little aggressive. I've only posted on here a few times, you're not doing a good job representing the forum right now.

Ha ha, yes, I am indeed a Calzaghe fan. Got a couple of his gloves too.

I don't hate Glen Johnson at all, in fact, he was the victim of some horrible decisions against him in 2000 and beyond. But it's over for him, and I despise fighters sticking around too long.

Shit, Hatton lost twice. I don't encourage him to fight again.

That explains it all.

Mack will be ready for war, WARMACK!

Johnson knows this is his final shot. Mack will have to dig deep follow his game plan and he will WIN.

[CFH]

This is a big step up for Mack. I'll be cheering for him, but Johnson is going to prove him improved his stamina is because he'll be on him the entire night. I think it'll be a close fight either way, but my initial thoughts are that Johnson will be outboxed for much of the fight but will end up grinding Mack down. I'll be cheering for Mack though.

Joel who?

Anyway. I stopped caring about Mack the moment Berrio killed him.
Having said that, i'm glad Team Mack think that is finally Johnson is ripe.

[barron71]

This is a fight Mack had to take. If he beats Johnson its a great win on his resume.

Alejandro Berrio is a huge puncher though, i wouldn't give him too much stick for that fight. He even at times gave Lucian Bute a few problems.

How did this thread so south so fast?

I mean if you don't have any interest on the fight why put "I have seen them fight and I don't wanna watch. This fight sucks." Please enlighten me What made you click the link to post something here when there are 100's of Ricky Hatton/Joe Calzaghe threads.

All that aside:
I think Mack is going to try to give Johnson lots of angles and get low. Problem is Mack doesn't have a great left hook, and Johnson is pretty good at smothering/blocking big right hands. Mack is no Bad Chad, so if he just thinks he can go in there and be cute, he's got another thing coming. Johnson can unload if he can get planted.

Bad Chad was ONLY successful because he could back Johnson up in their most recent match. He was really throwing big punches, but not exchanging. Johnson got the better of most of the exchanges in both of their fights.

I would have to pick Johnson by 116-110 with one KD in there on an off balance Mack.

[barron71]

Mack will be very slick, he will have to move and throw plenty counter punches because Johnson will come all night with and throw a lot of punches.

Mack has been working hard in camp and he knows this is the fight of his life.

[Hulk]

It should be a very good fight.

Mack is like a watered down version of Chad Dawson. More hittable of course.

So Johnson may very well take this one.

Mack has a lot of heart tho and has been on quite a little winning streak lately.

[barron71]

I would not say Mack is a waterdown version of Dawson. They are different fighters with different styles. Mack is more gifted then Johnson. Johnson is more durable. Mack will be there in the late rounds and will surprise the public
