Tarver: "I Want Hopkins To UnRetire"
I DISLIKE THIS GUY ALOT!! Why would another fight be any different? B Hop schooled and embaressed him. A boxing masterclass from a true legend,and if they did fight again,Tarver may do well in the odd round but I'd expect B Hop to beat his bitch a** again!
Tarver is an idiot just chasing a payday.
BTW- check your messages ;)
No Me gusta Senor Tarver! Senor Tarver es muy FEO!!!!!
Tarver bugs the shit out of me. "I've got legends on my resumé". What a twat. B-Hop would still beat him aged 50, Glen Johnson is not a legend and if he'd been in with RJJ before he'd moved up to heavy he's have got nothing out of him.
Just because he's in a Rocky film he thinks it makes him a marquee name! So Tarver's ambition is to be the next Tommy Morrison? Nice one >:mad

Will someone Knock Tarver the Fuck out please???
Jeff Lacy, Allan Green...EAT YOUR FOOD!
Chad Dawson, lift the weights big guy
Damn it, someone just smack him in the head with a hammer!
let him talk... He got schooled and RJJ's legendary status is left to the future. His prime will be viewed as legendary. His fights with Tarver will just be viewed as an afterthought. As far as Hopkins. I hope he stays retired like Hagler and makes the loss eat away @ tarver for the rest of his life. What a fitting end to the self proclaimed"Legend Killer" ::** 8)
"I don't dance to nobody's music," Tarver said. "I've been on the grind for five years, and every fight I've been in has been a do-or-die situation. Guys like Calzaghe have gotten by with fighting 'D' level fighters, but Antonio Tarver has always had major expectations on him."
You know what...call me crazy...but I agree here.
"After my last fight against Bernard Hopkins [a unanimous-decision loss], I realized I needed to step back and recollect my thoughts. I've always been in killer fights, but my next fight won't be that type of fight. I want a comeback fight. I've never had a tuneup fight in all my life. All of my fights have been legendary type fights. I will brush the cobwebs off in my next fight."
You know what...call me crazy...but I agree here also. I agree here...but all his life hasn't been that legendary. Take a comeback fight against a soft opponent & then call out Johnson again...or fight Calzaghe...& beat them...then you can try Hopkins one more time...till then...STFU!!!!
"My goal remains to bring Bernard Hopkins out of retirement and redeem myself for that loss. As far as everyone else is concerned, they need to realize that once the movie drops, I will be a marquee fighter, and I will use that to my negotiating advantage."
Then your goal remains to have your ass handed to you again. Hell...I was even shocked...would you want to be shocked a second time?
Also...a movie..."dropping"...aint gonna make you a marquee fighter, beating a marquee fighter will make you a marquee fighter. Your'e only as good as your last fight...& in your last fight...you surprisingly got your ass handed to you.
Why would Bernard bother his ass coming out of retirement to fight someone who he has already destroyed!?Not gona happen.

The B-Hop Tarver fight is my favorite fight in the world to watch. Hell I should buy it. It proves that justice is served occasionally. Why would B waste his time with Tarver? Why would anyone want to help a guy like that out by giving him a payday? By wanting a rematch, he is letting his alligator mouth over run his hummingbird ass!
i do agree with you and sort of disagree a little....Quote:

glen johnson is a good fighter... and is actually about the same class as tarver great but not excellent is how i'd describe them... thats why i think they both have a win each over eachother...
and when i saw tarver fight hopkins he looked exectly like roy did when tarver faced him he looked drained, no power, and he looked like he just didnt want it, just like roy did.... tarver needs to take all this time of really work at building the muscle and the hunger back, take the tune up and get back on track!! i mean i dislike tarver but respect tarver and to be fair hes a big name whos still got a couple of big fights ahead of him i believe!
peace
and i forgot to mention that when he fought bernard...
he got whooped becuase hed been falsely led that he could hang in there with the likes of the excecutioner because he'd beat a done in roy jones! and then he found he wasnt of the same class and he felt what it was like for roy when he dropped the wight and thats why my man bhop took tarver to school ;)
lol peace
Tarver is an Assclown plain and simple!!! Wish he would sut his Gotdam mouth....I find it interesting a few years ago there was so much Buzz and attention paid to the Trio of..
Roy Jones- got Knocked out cold by Tarver and Johnson now Trying to Solidify a last Hurrah and regain Elite status
Glen Johnson- Hard working fighter who lost a desicion to Clinton Woods
Antonio Tarver- one hit Wonder and the worlds premier horn blower... Who got schooled and Outclassed by B-Hop
Now all three of these fighters our at a crossroads....Curious to see were they all go from here, if anywere...
yeh it gets me down a bit....Quote:

glen fights hard and works hard and has worked hard to get where he is today and has had some bad decisions against him in his time.....
roy takes a good fight or two where his style favours him so he wins some big fights and goes and enjoys his money!!

Oh my god he's back, uuuuugh. I was hoping tarver would just dissapear from the map after the schooling he took at hopkins' hands. Who are these legends on his resume he keeps on refering to, he has roy on there and that is it. Tarver is one of those fighters that just keeps on talking trash, I think if he lost 10 fights in a row he'd still walk around claiming how awesome and great he is, and he's smoked so much crack that he'd believe it. I think calzaghe would beat tarver pretty easily, except I don't see what calzaghe really gains from beating tarver since he's already been "exposed" by b hop.
It's fitting of a habitual line stepper like Tarver!Quote:

i sure wish the legend killer would stay dead :lickish: lol after being killed by the legend

Nah b hop should stay retiered, and not risk re-retiring on a loss, since that is very possible against cal. I'm not saying cal would win the match, but it could swing either way really.
Joe doesn't hit hard enough to put Tarver out of my misery
Hop beats Joe 9 times out of 10. Don't get me wrong Jie is good but not good or tough enough.Quote:

-Bernard eats up sothpaws.In his old age he uses the right hand alot and he uses it well. Joe will be hit with more flush shots then hop
hopkins wont unretire for tarver. no way in hell. i think he will only unretire for calzaghe or jones or someone like them
LIke Manuel Stewart said about Tarver " Tarver never fought anyone before Jones or After Jones) That's all he has on his ResumeQuote:

Instead of doing what he should have done which was create his own legacy. And not just going for the "man who beat the man" After he and even before he beat Johnson where was the fights with that Adamek dude, and the fights with Briggs and all these other light Heavyweights. If Tarver wants to be considered a true legend, then create a legacy, don't beat great fighters out of their prime and call yourself a legend
And with that, I'm out till tomorrow. PEace to the Saddoboxing community, a pleasure as always.
