He was ahead on the damage-meter in this one, and could have possibly done enough damage to finish Rockhold next round. Flash KO by Rockhold here, as Johny's health was still in the green. THE GREEN.

What a good fight. Back and forth, no idea who was gonna win, until the "tiiiimbeerrrr" the sim program spoke of. Johny needs some KO resistance. He was ahead on the damage-meter in this one, and could have possibly done enough damage to finish Rockhold next round. Flash KO by Rockhold here, as Johny's health was still in the green. THE GREEN. Johny's strike accuracy could be improved also. Anyways, neat fight.
