Hell I'd go as far as to say that Thomas Tate and Merqui Sosa were better fighters than Allan Green.
Roy Jones Jr. took both men out in 2 rounds.
Andre Ward is a nice kid and a very good fighter, but he is NOWHERE NEAR the fighter Roy Jones Jr. was in his prime.
Lets not forget Roy Jones Jr. hardly ever lost a round and was P4P the best for a decade.
Andre Ward was dropped by Darnell Boone...
You gotta remember who said the comment, it was Tarver. Him and Jones don't really play well with each other at recess.
Yes I know you gotta consider the source.
Tarver clearly still has some bad blood or disdain for Jones.
Probably cus he has man boobs and Jones has rock hard pecs.

agreed
tarver still bitches about that 1st fight to this day, in reality had he of fought a prime RJJ on all 3 occasions it would of ended with tarver eating ring mat
andre ward is a good fighter at best, RJJ and him are worlds apart
Indeed.
Roy Jones is arguably the greatest boxer who ever lived, at least the most talented. In his prime he was untouchable.
And Tarver clearly lost the first fight. He won 5 rounds out of 12, faded down the stretch and Roy took the decision and rightfully so.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
