Tarver drugged against BHOP
By Mark Vester
There seem to always be conspiracy theories in boxing. During a recent media conference call, light heavyweight contender Antonio Tarver was asked several questions with respect to his June 06 loss to Bernard Hopkins. Hopkins moved up two weight classes and dominated Tarver for twelve rounds.
One reporter asked Tarver if there was a possibility that he was drugged. Not only did Tarver say that it could have been a possibility, he wishes there would have been a drug test after the fight to confirm or deny his theory.
"It is a great possibility. The stakes were high. When you look at that fight, which I have not seen the fight in its entirety, everybody that knows me knew that something was terribly wrong from when I walked from the dressing room to the ring. Something was wrong all day. It is a possibility, but I cannot say that my preparation was any different than it has been. I have always been committed, dedicated and a hard worker. So when you look at those assets, then you have to say something else happened for me to fight so flat, so lifeless, so emotionless, so un-spirited in one of the biggest fights of my career," Tarver said.
"Something definitely happened and something was terribly wrong. I wish I would have had a blood test right after the fight. Normally, they do drug test you after the fight. I do not know if there is any possibility of going back and getting that urinalysis and examining it to see what happened. Mentally, I was beat out of the game – could not get focused, could not get up for the fight – and that is just not like me."
tarver just can't admit that he got beat. bad loser.
foreman started all this

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Oh for gods sake
Antonio,you know why you lost?
Simple
Bhop had you game planned
You try to use that stupid pawing jab to find range,without it you allways have difficulties finding your range to get your punches off.
All night every time you tried to float that stupid thing out there,Bhop would slap it quickly midway.Back off,and use his superior foot speed to get two power shots off.

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Some fighters are strange with there mad excuses i can't believe Foreman is making new excuses for his loss to Ali 33 years on wow ive just looked at my posts as im saying this and im on 1974 strange
-
Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Tarver should put his money where his mouth is and push for a rematch. If he was drugged and can perform so much better he should be calling for this. I think he couldn't work out Hopkins or underprepared thinking Hopkins was the smaller guy. Plus wasn't he about to start filming Rocky. Maybe he was thinking about becoming an A-lister

Tarver will always be a "B+" talking like an "A" plain and simple...  I recognize what he did to roy...  Very good!  Now stop riding that train and continue with your career of "killing legends"...  (Or getting killed by another in B-Hop... he's a phuking idiot)

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Now Tarver knows what Roy was talking about after their first match. Roy was listless, barely able to move like he typically did and put in a lackluster performance (even though he won). Putting on so much weight and having to come down has an effect on you. Had Tarver always stayed at light heavy he still would have lost, flat out Hopkins had his number. Hopkins spoke like he'd seen the future and knew what would happen in the fight; Tarver spoke like he'd looked at what he'd done in the past and made a prediction against a fighter he'd never set eyes on. I was leaning toward Hopkins before the fight but it was a lock when I saw Sylvester Stallone vouching for Tarver, saying him having to lose the weight wouldn't have a detrimental effect. The older fighter looked much younger, in fact, had Hopkins chosen, he could have KO'd Tarver but he left him with a smidge of dignity (plus Hopkins is such a defensive fighter he didn't need to risk it). If Tarver asks for a part 2 he will get creamed almost as badly.

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
mate thats got to be one of the worst excuses ive heard for losing a fight. ive never personally liked tarver. to cockey, ok he beat mr jones. but we all no he was not at his best, past his prime you might say. just to look at tarver in the b-hop fight he was not as lean as he has been in previous fights. he might as well tell the truth he was under prepared after the rocky film and he got schooled by a master boxer B-HOP.

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Tarver's playing a simple game of the mouse trying to lure in the cat & catch him in a trap of utter stupidity...but the cat's a whooooooole lot smarter than the mouse at playing games.
Hopkins will not be goaded by such ignorant comments.
Tarver just dropped down another notch for me.

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
shameful , the only thing worse then getting your ass kicked in the ring.. is crying about afterwards.
Just like wacko said , you lose fan base on excuses like that. as well as lose the respect of your peers .

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Maybe he was taking a shot at Foreman?
Even if he wasn't he should quickly announce that he was.
-
Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
Tarver sucks.
From his own mouth, "any excuses?", ha ha ha ha, what a dumbass.
-
Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
tarver has to say this because if he ever admits to it being the fact that he shedded all that weight from the balboa movie (LOL) as the reason why he was beaten so soundly then it discredits his victories over roy...
never understood why he would put his career on the line for a terrible movie..where as roy at least did it to make history in his sport...
-
Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
i personally think he was only kidding around. that's the way Tarver is. they were talking about RJJ excuses after he lossed and made a joke about his loss to BHop. my opinion.

Re: Tarver drugged against BHOP
I like how when some of these guys lose its not because they lost to the better man or wearent on their A game, but because they were poisoned. He may as well say he lost because merlin put an evil spell on him. Its ridiculous.

when you talk as much as tarver you have to make excuses for why you lost especially being as delusional as he is..thinking that he beat a prime jones is silly...
