$50,000 for the winner.
Round 1: Soliman is crazy! He throws more punches that come out of no where. I don’t like his style (he comes in swinging not even looking at where he’s punching) and I expect to see Johnsen to shoot a big right hander to finish him off. Johnsen looks to be sticking to a true boxing style and not letting Soliman’s wildness throw him off. Soliman continues to score by throwing big uppercuts in the clinch. Soliman looking a little tired at the end of the round but still wins the round.
Round 5: Apparently ESPN didn’t see rounds 2-4 worthy of showing. Teddy Atlas’ scorecard did have Soliman winning all 4 rounds up to this point. Johnsen seems to be looking for one punch to end the fight. He’s not jabbing or working the body at all. Soliman throwing everything but the kitchen sink but boy does it look awful! Awful it might be, but he still wins another round.
Round 6: Johnsen is more active this round. Probably out of desperation. Most all of Soliman’s punches seem to be landing and Johnsen seems to be doing nothing (at least missing). Soliman wins the round and the fight.
A unanimous decision is returned by the judges to put Soliman in the money!
