He looke very sharp against Green, a level above. I cant see anyone at CW beating him, well not easily anyway. I think he could have some good scraps with smaller heavys like Adamek and Haye too.
What I saw in this fight is Green got hurt a couple of times in the first and it made him hesitant and slowed him down. This allowed Tarver to get in the fight. I think in about the 7th Tarver started slowing and Green was coming back in to it. Tarver got back in to it because Green slowed again. The final punches that Tarver threw we slow and forced, if he hadnt have got the stoppage he would have been very tired.
Im not sure how good Green is. He was beaten fairly easy by that idiot Mundine. I think that Tarver hu him almost at will is good as Green does have a good chin. I just think Green had a loss coming as soon as he fought anyone decent. Tarver will struggle against anyone who doesnt get hit as easy and has a good output. Look at the Dawson fight. Still a good win for him here though.
Wait for Haye to call him up to heavy now....
I think outside of Cunningham and Huck, Tarver has a good shot against anyone. He brings a name to the division though, which is good for it.
I just finished watching a tapedelay of this fight about 15 mins ago, I was impressed by Tarver, although on the other hand Green is slow and not so technically gifted ATALL and he managed to land some decent rights on Tarver, so maybe against someone not as shit as Green he wouldn't look so hot. Not sure how he deals with the pressure of Huck. Cunningham is great I think, but SERIOUSLY needs to step it up again already. Has he fought anyone with a pulse since the Adamek war?
Wow, just watched the fight and what a great performance from Tarver. I thought he might nick it on points if he could take Greens power but no way did I see him getting the KO. I'd give him a good shout against anyone at the weight.
I'd love to see Tarver in there against Lateef Kayode or Steve Cunningham.
I'm glad to hear Tarver smashed Danny Greene.
Fuck Greene for getting a premature, but probably inevitable, stoppage over a totally shot Roy Jones.
And fuck him for winning a fixed fight against Paul Briggs.
Tarver could be THE MAN at cruiser now. Good for him.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
