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!

[amat]

Tarver is an idiot just chasing a payday.

No Me gusta Senor Tarver! Senor Tarver es muy FEO!!!!!

[littledave]

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

Well Said......Where are these legends.....This is what confuses me about people....Just because he beat Jones he thinks he is a legend killer....Jones was not in his prime and seemed to lose it all over night.....Age just bit his ass....Has Tarver even reached the 30 fight mark yet....Do not mistake Hopkins for Jones....Tarver thought because Hopkins lost to Taylor it was going to be an easy fight..Thats arrogance....biting him in the ass..

[El Kabong]

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!

[PRIDE OF BOSTON]

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"

[Wacko3205]

"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.

[cockey cockney]

Why would Bernard bother his ass coming out of retirement to fight someone who he has already destroyed!?Not gona happen.

EXACTLY

This is all favorable for Sly Stallone. It makes his movie more credible. Tarver getting beat up by old men is just the thing to do right now. Sly does not want release his movie of Rocky until Tarver gets a win. Tarver will not get a win over B-hop this year. Maybe if Tarver waits until B-Hop is 60, he might get the job done.

[boozeboxer]

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....
way i see it is his fights have not been as great as he thinks.... he took on a roy jones that had moved down from heavy lost all his power and was not the same great man ... and he took the credit for it.....
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

[Tito BHB]

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

[JT Rock]

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...
