Round 4 and Tarver has won every round, Green down in round 2 from a left hook. Green looks sluggish.
Green looks rubbish, but Tarver is looking so assured. Easy fight for Tarver so far. Green has always been a bit rubbish.
I just had a look at a stream and it looked to me like Green was fighting Mason 'The Line' DixoN, did Tarver pull out ?
Round 5 and Green is moving slower than a two toed sloth!
Green is doing absolutely nothing, Tarver is dominating this to an absurd degree.
Round 6- Green needs to get a move on !
Tarver rocked and in trouble!
Hmmm...Tarver hurt? Greens round. He needs KD's to get into this though.
is this fight happening right now?
Tarvers round, good bounceback after that dodgy previous round. Green needs to knock him out now, I can't see him stopping Tarver though.
Green knocked out
No, the guys are commentating from the Delorian ;DQuote:

Oh, it's over! Funny ending, Green went a bit odd there.
Green was just not switched on at all for this fight, sluggish from the start the difference in talent was very clear. Tarver was in good shape and Green for some bizarre reason looked bloated and out of shape. A very good effort by Tarver.
Tarver is impressive, 42 and still able to perform very well if matched right. He looks much better than he did in his final fights at LHW. He doesn't need to try and match younger, sharper guys for handspeed and is able to dictate more.
Green has always looked this way...just against worse competition. Sorry but Danny stepped up tonight and lost. He thought he had another past it fighter in front of him, he was wrong. Danny used to complain about struggling to make weight and drain himself...now hes possibly bloated...no...he got beat by a better fighter and would every time. Green cant fight going backwards, he cant fullstop. Hes an agressive fighter that can counterpunch while moving forward but hes lost when hes pushed back. Danny is usually the bully in the ring, he got bullied tonight.
WOOOOOOO TARVER, was jumping out of my seat when he finished him. Righto Danny hang em up, Mundine hang em up and lets finish this monopoly of australian boxing, its time Katsdis, Darchinyan and Geale got the limelight they actually deserve.

Good win for Tarver. The cruiserweight division is weak as piss right now. I reckon he has a good shot at winning a belt or two.
Told you Danny Green was overrated, i know you've caught me out few times. Regarding Christian Mijares 20 title defenses ;DQuote:

Green stacked on the weight, why he has weighed in some 20lbs heavier than when he fought Roy Jones jr in 2009 is beyond belief? That's just a 38 year old man becoming fat and lazy approaching middle age! Tarver looked in far better shape and was switched on from the the beginning, Green couldn't land a punch on Tarver because his 14 chins got in the way! Green still had the power and if he was in any shape at all he might have got away with a win, as it was he deserved to lose and he needs to sack his dietician and physical trainers if he is to continue. Tarver's team on the other hand were well prepared and did their homework, most of all they had their fighter in excellent physical condition.Quote:

I bet Huck loves that Tarver won and that fight gets made fast even though he just joined the division, Tarver is already the biggest name in the division.Quote:

Retirement next?
