Yeah i guess that would have to be one of the bigger upsets if that was to happen . Gatti has the bigger heart , but PBF has the natural skills. It will defintly be a classic
WOuld Johnson , Winning over Tarver again be considered a upset ?
If someone were to ask me, I'd say no. With their styles, it could go either way, IMO
They both beat a shadow of Jones. If either of those fights had taken place in '01 or '02 Jones would have dominated them. You know it, I know it, the whole world knows it.
Tarver will not tire out in this match. He's gonna be in great shape, and he'll show that Johnson is not what he's cracked up to be, and that he is the true light heavy weight champion.
Yeah,Roy Jones would beat anyone in '01 and '02,that's because he was on Steroids.Everyone knows that.
Tarver had 9months in between the RJ and Johnson fight,now how the hell will he be in better shape this time,especially at his age.Six months and back in the ring for Tarver,is like a Football team playing every day of the week,ha!
With all that has happened in the last few months .What match up do you think will pose the next big upset of 2005 ?
Gatti over Mayweather
Taylor over Hopkins (Im almost certain of this)
Cotto over Hatton or Tszyu

That was a slip. Tarver won that fight, and he's going to win this one, too. This time, he's not gonna fuck around, and he'll dominate Johnson.

Tarver was the one stumbling onto all fours,and even stumbling in the 12th round.

Johnson's legs didn't look right.Maybe that was because he had less than three months in between the RJ fight and the Tarver fight.This time he'l be fresher and Tarver will quit late in this fight,watch.

If anyone gets KO'd its Johnson IMO. Tarver had him hurt in the 12th round in that last fight.

WOuld Johnson , Winning over Tarver again be considered a upset ?
no cuz Johnson is the best lightheavy right now!!!!
sidenote: whateva happened to that crown Tarver brought in the ring in the 1st fight? LOL, dint he say he'll give that to Johnson if he loses. All Tarver gave was excuses. LOL
Nah, Hopkins is going to take him to School and give him a pop quiz. :D
exactly! that's what i'm talking about...look at this brotha's name - The Truth!
WOuld Johnson , Winning over Tarver again be considered a upset ?
NO!The first time maybe,but not this time.I expect Johnson to breakdown and KO the old Antonio "ET Phone Home" Tarver.
Verno Philips beating Quartey on Saturday would be a big upset in many eyes,but mine.
Gatti beating Mayweather would be a big one.Other than that,I dont see many big upsets anytime soon.
I'm hearing Jeffy Lacy's next opponent Robin Reid aint too bad,maybe he can come out of no where and upset Lacy.That would be a big upset.
I don't think Phillips over Quartey would be much of an upset. It's a natural welterweight coming off a 5 year layoff who has 0 160 fights against a tough contender who has had success at 154 and has had 3 fights since 2004...
I think they are even money with an edge to Phillips because Ikes been gone for so long and this is a big step up in competition.
