WTF? Is this some sort of joke? Glen Johnson replacing Kessler in the super six?

I would take Johnson to beat Abraham. Green couldn't do anything to keep Ward off his chest, that's how Glenn has been fighting for 100 years. No way he loses but I don't think he'll get the KO he needs either.

Do you mean Green? I think Johnson should avoid Abraham at all costs. His style is not meant for Abs. He would be walking on to thunderous punches from the 1st bell.

I am with Amat here mate, if Johnson can hang and take bombs and arguably in some peoples case beat Cloud I can't see him worrying to much about AA arsenal of punches if Johnson can do the weight fine and if his level is still that it was against Cloud, I think Abrahams style could suit Johnson more active granite chin, I wouldn't b surprised if Johnson took a decision.

How about Ward versus Johnson? Because assuming Johnson KO'd Green and Ward beat Dirrell, Johnson would be facing Ward in the semi's. And we'd get a rematch of Froch/Abraham.

Now that I think about it, is there anyone that could beat Ward in the tournament?

I just read on Dan Rafael's espn chat that Johnson inherits Kessler's round point total in the case of a tie in total points and thus, he advances with a win of any kind, not just a KO. That does not really seem fair to me that he should advance and not others with just a win. I'm not sure if did, but I take it back if I ever said that. Green, on the other hand, needs a KO to advance because of his low point total.

Ugh. This means I actually might be forced to cheer for Green, one of my most despised fighters, against Johnson, one of my most respected fighters. Fucking Showtime...
