St. Louis, MO (My Sportsbook) - Tavoris Cloud retained his IBF light heavyweight championship Saturday at Scottrade Center with a unanimous decision over veteran "Gentleman" Glen Johnson. Cloud (21-0, 18 KOs), who last fought 12 months ago in a unanimous decision over Clinton Woods for the vacant IBF 175-pound title, kept his unbeaten record intact by proving the more durable against the elder Johnson at age 41. Johnson (50-14-2, 34 KOs), a former IBF/IBO claimant, was making his 11th appearance in a world championship bout coming off a February technical knockout of Yusaf Mack. All three judges scored the fight 116-112.
