..in the boxing gym for the first time in months.
"I was just shaking loose, but can I tell you something? It feels like I've never left and that not very good for Mr. Tarver."
Tarver is scrawny because its how he looks for light heavy...isn't tarver 200+ walking around? I think Tarver may surprise us all here with KO over Tyson, but my gut is telling my Magic Man isn't going to pull that rabbit out of the hat...sorry bad joke.. : /
I see Tyson being really competitive in the first four rounds and if he wins its going to be in that time anytime after that its most likely gunna be tarver
Tarver is such a scrawny guy that I can see him getting steamrolled by a natural heavyweight like Tyson in a few rounds. Even Holyfield, the smallest man Mike has lost to, was a physically strong man. Tarver is a stick. Does he have what it takes to even survive long enough to impose his will on Tyson?
I am not a Tyson fan at all but this fight intrigues me.
Tyson needs that one last fight, just one more, and it has to be a win. For his own sanity. Tarver is a fairly safe fight. As faded as Tyson is I give him a punchers chance. If he gets Tarver quick..1st rnd ko, he will fight again. If Tarver lasts say 3-5 rnds and then Tyson nails him I think he'd be satisfied with that and call it a day. Just gonna have to wait and see.
man mike tyson has QUIT! in his last 2 fights (yea yea he "hurt" his knee vs williams) he would get dominated by tarver for the entire fight and his only chance of winning is by a miracle punch that i believe could very well happen since it is Tyson but i wouldnt bet on it, KO/TKO or Decesion for Tarver
Hows Tarver's body going to react when Tyson hits it? Can Tarver take a Tyson right hand? Tarver got stunned by an uppercut in the third Jones fight. Can Tarver take a Tyson uppercut?

Anyone?
Didn't know it was that hard to find someone who would favor the Iron Mike Tyson to dismiss a light heavy
Tarver is a world class light heavy and Tyson doesn't even care for the sport anymore ( his words not mine ).
They'll be an idiot to take your bet though, so many Tyson nuthuggers out there...
He beat him 2 out of three times? Yes, he is better than RJJ in 2005.
Are you suggesting Taver is as good as Roy? I mean he did beat him but that has to do with styles not overall attributes...
has anybody seen tysons last few fights?
tarver is the best fighter he will have faced since lennox.
does anybody truly believe that both mcbride and williams are more challenging than tarver at heavy?
tarver isnt that small, he is 6'2 and will be at around 210-215 pounds for the fight. he is a lefty, good speed and skills, and has good pop. at this point in his career id say tysons chances at beating tarver are very slim.
I disagree but I see your points. And its also clear you really believe Mike will lose. Your not just saying that to be like everyone else...

Toney is doing just fine at heavy and Toney is older than Tarver and has more fights.
PS: Jones did pretty well at heavy. No reason Tarver wont do just as well.

until this fight is officially signed, press conference, etc. i don't really have a serious desire to follow this story because there are too many other exciting rivalries going on (hopkins/taylor, morales/pac, lacy/calzaghe) for me to concentrate on at the moment, hope this develops tho.
What the hell...
1 Bil points on Tarver. Anyone taking Tyson?
PM me please
Anyone?

Wake up! Tyson doesnt even have a change. Kevin "C level" McBride took the best Tyson could offer...
Sit down...
McBride was 6'6 280 pounds! :eek: Tarver is a 37 year old light heavyweight who has never tasted heavyweight power in his life. By the way I think Tyson always has a slight chance, the guy can punch. :)
on second thought, i don't think i'l have an opinion on this fight, the two guys we're talking about are probably 2 of the most unpredictable at this point in their careers, which = very good PPV buys
but i will say i agree that Tarver's probably never gone up against this kind of power before.
