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.
You guys seem to rate Johnson quite highly. Do you think he can win the whole thing?

I havent completely written Froch off yet but Ward is favourite. Green has no hope. Abraham has a punchers chance. I cant forget Johnsons loss to Woods years ago and everytime I see him box he is getting beaten by someone different so Id be surprised if he won. He'll make it past the group stage though because all he has to do is outpoint Green and even Miranda did that. Dirrel might be the most talented but next to Green he is the most fragile mentally. Doesnt like it whe things arent going his way and falls apart. I reckon Froch, Abraham, Ward and Johnson will be the final 4. Ward vs Abs in the final depending how it is seeded.
