Glen Johnson took the headliner of Friday Night Fights with an impressive unanimous decision win over Daniel Judah, and Tomasz Adamek was a big winner over on SHOWTIME against Johnathon Banks via brutal eighth round knockout.

Johnson avenged a 2003 draw with the win, a fight that nearly ended quite early. Johnson dropped Judah with a straight right hand in the first round and had him hurt. Luckily for Judah, the knockdown happened very late in the round and he was able to survive the round.

From then on out, Johnson took control of the fight with his effective aggression and coasted home to the decision victory. According to ESPN’s stats, Johnson out threw Judah and landed nearly 100 more punches.

Scores were 99-89, 99-90 and 99-90 as Johnson goes to 49-12-2 with 33 knockouts.

Adamek was fighting less than three months after his epic battle with Steve Cunningham, and took a few rounds before finding his rythym against the previously undefeated Banks. Banks landed some big shots early as Adamek seemed to be reluctant to engage on the inside. Banks used his jab well in the first two rounds, and seemed to get Adamek’s attention several times with big blows.

Adamek turned the tide of the fight in the fifth round as he started to work the body. At this point, Banks started to lose his legs and abandoned his jab. Adamek picked up the pace through the sixth and seventh round, while doing hellacious body work.

In the eighth, Banks landed a huge right hand in the first minute, but was unable to follow it up with anything. Adamek then landed a perfect right hand on the chin and followed it up with a sweeping left hand to send Banks to the canvas. Banks beat the count, but Adamek quickly put a flurry together, sending Banks to the floor in a heap against the turnbuckle.

Adamek improves to 37-1 with 25 knockouts, while Banks falls to 20-1.

On the Adamek-Banks undercard, Giovanni Lorenzo gave us a Knockout of the Year nominee with a perfect one-punch stoppage of Dionisio Miranda. After landing a few solid shots to loosen him up, Lorenzo landed an absolutely perfect shot that dropped Miranda like a ton of bricks in the final minute of the second round.
