Johnson is one of those guys I lumped with Smith that just had raw, game changing power. But Smith has improved a lot since his loss to Bivol, while Johnson may still just be one dimensional power. I'll have to watch his next fight. Didn't know it was in a couple weeks.

Yup. Had Artur dazed too. Caught him good. Was an entertaining fight while it lasted. I was shocked Artur took the fight as a "tune up/voluntary defense" because it's what most fans on here would call "too high risk, too low reward" which I guess is true, since everyone now calls Callum a bum lol

Johnson can bang, that'd be an all action fight

This ^. Johnson now is about where Smith was 5 or 6 years ago developmentally, but being matched tough with some of the best in the division has tempered Smith into a far more capable fighter with a wealth of top level experience to call on. Still be a real fun war but I've little doubt Joe would win it.
