definitely was time to go. His loss to Bute was wide. He lost to Fonfara who is not that good. I scored it 96-94 for Fonfara. I have no problem with the 97-93, but the 99-91 I question.

So long, Road Warrior.

You are going out at the right time, still competitive and still demanding respect from anyone you face.

Memo to HBO, ESPN, Showtime, or NBCSports: Glencoe is quite articulate, is an engaging and colorful speaker, and has forgotten more about boxing than most guys know. Someone, anyone, please hire this guy and give him a microphone...

I would guess Johnson saved his money unlike someone like Roy Jones, who is shot and fighting because he is broke.

I'm a big Glen Johnson fan and I'll miss him. That said, I would've advised him to retire following his loss to Tavoris Cloud.

Glen had raw determination. I think he could've been competitive against most Light Heavys that I've seen in my life time.

I can't think of anyone who didn't like The Road Warrior. I hope all goes well in the next chapter of his life.
