Austin v. Johnson prediction
Well, this is Austin's 4th title defense this year: Mendoza was no slouch, Lloyd was a sandbag, and Botile, the first of them, was very formidible. Far more formidible than tonight's competitor, the likely overclassed Arthur Johnson (18-4, 10 KO). Johnson has taken 2 or 3 of his losses in the last 5 fights, and among those, he went 12 rounds to win a decision over a glass joe whose record was an impressive 16-11. (Seriously.)
My prediction is this: Austin by KO in the 5th
And, I'm still thinking about Holyfield v. Ruiz; while I'm sure of the winner, I could as easily see a 2nd/3rd round KO as I could a decision, to be honest.
But, I'll commit to something by tomorrow night :)
