I think Clinton must have struggled to make 175, where-as Johnson seems to have had no such problems at all. Maybe Glen could make 168lbs, who knows?

I have said elswhere Johnson could make 168 I am sure, he has plenty of flesh on him at 172-175.

any pics of the head to heads, sounds as if Clinton has come in healthy for the fight hopefuly the power will tell in the end.

I assumed that... does anyone have any idea if he regularly has trouble boiling down, what does he usually weigh in at on fight night.

he puts on a lot, can't remember the full about. well into 13 stone, i think

also, it's worth mentioning he had some kind of bad cold or virus 3 weeks ago

i remember seeing pics of the weigh in and final presser for Woods-Hoye. Clinton looked a skinny bugger one day then strong as hell the next.

Woods looks fine to me, sounds like he's got it exactly right, making it bang on the weight.

Based on the last two fights, most are pretty sure this goes 12, but who really knows? One perfect shot early, and this could be a completely different type of fight. Both have been around a long time now, and could suddenly go when we're least expecting it.

Looks a real 50/50 fight

Difficult to tell from that pic, but Woods doesn't look to have the really hollow-cheeked look of the seriously weight-drained. Any more pics knocking about?

anyone got the #s for the weight johnson puts on. i'll bet it's not a lot

i reckon glen will be slightly outgunned in this one. given woods' improved power, technique & strength & Johnson's being 3 lbs inside the limit
