Think about that: one fight against Ward in Oakland and then a knockout win over Johnson. How is that lucky? I wanted Bika to fight Green for entry into the tournament, but Bika backed out. Not Green. And at the time, after that, there was no better replacement than Green.
How is that lucky?

He is utter shite that's why, he woul of made the best part of $500k because his promoter was Lou Di Bella, he is one lucky son of a bitch, I give him much better chance against Johnson than Kessler put it that way, Johnson is a tough tough man but is an old man and has not fought at 168 in so many years, I don't think for one minute Green will knock him out because he is crap he wouldnt knock half the decent fighters at 168, but I would deffo rather fight Johnson than Kessler.
So, what are you arguing about then? If he doesn't knock him out, he doesn't advance. He could even beat Glen Johnson, which would be a good win, and then not advance.

I don't give him a better chance against Johnson than Kessler. Well, winning the fight, yes I agree with you. But, he must get a KO to advance. And there is no way he's KO'ing Johnson. No way. Kessler getting knocked out is more likely.

You are not acknowleding that he entered the tournament at a disadvantage. The odds were against him anyway. Everyone else had three matches to advance, he had two. So, if you thought he was horrible you didn't have to worry because he probably wasn't making out of the first round regardless.

Bottom line, you like Dirrell's DQ W over Abraham more than a KO over Johnson. We can agree to disagree.

Lets not try diverting the oiginal point mate, fact of the matter is Green has a hard task but what the fuck does he expect? Super six? There is nothing super about him, he new he was a replacement and he new the task simple really? But he preformed like a blind disabled person against Ward that was his own fault. He won't be knocking out Kesser or Johnson in his wildest dreams.
