Woods v Tarver/Dawson v Johnson Light Heavyweight RBR double header

[superheavyrhun]

Both fighters look fairly relaxed in there, and Tarver's also got some ridiculous shadow of a mustache. I've been looking forward to this one since the last big fight, and Tarver looks fairly nervous when it actually comes to the introductions. He also looks quite gaunt in the face , not someone from the bigger divisions. He does however get a big reception from the home fans, and a fair share of boos from the Brits. Woods gets even more boos though, with the English flags flying in the ring to boot. The enthusiastic bell ringer keeps banging away at it.

Tarver is grabbing on alot at the minute, but looks a little more effective than Woods. Clinton needs to pick up the pace a bit really.

Interesting Rhun, I have it 4-0 for Tarver. Woods has seemed to me to be off balance and out of rhythm all night. He needs to work a jab but no signs of any such thing.

Now 5 rounds to 0 imo.
