Glen "Road Warrior" Johnson
On Saturday, April 12, 2008 at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida, Glen Johnson pressed the action for 12-rounds, rocked Dawson in rounds three and ten and outworked the younger man in rounds eleven and twelve yet Johnson lost the bout when it went to the scorecards. Scores were 112-116, 112-116 and 112-116. Sure Dawson throws a lots of punches and combinations but like Paul Williams in the fight with Margarito, Dawson's punches are pitty-pat punches. If you saw Johnson's face after the fight he doesn't have a mark yet Dawson was all swelled up post fight. That's because Johnson sets his punches when he hits you. Johnson has power.
