Bozo_no_no must be the greatest!!!**Ali voice** LOL! :D Great clip.
Why was there any reason to hate Jirov? He was a fairly humble guy who came from a shitty background and worked his way to the top of the cruiserweight division through grit and toughness.
Don't tell me it's because of the way he fought either...guy came into the ring to FIGHT every time. He gave us a classic with Toney and just made a mistake by jumping up in weight.
Oh did you not get the memo where Jirov said he suspected Toney of being on steroids when they fought? Is that an excuse or just sour grapes? Either way, why say it?
:D it would be a great fight if tarver would make a fight of it. jirov 3 or 4 years ago no contest. he wins. but jirov has been in so many wars i.e. james toney and the like he is tired and maybe should retire.
Wow, Jirov beat him in a 3 rounder. I'm impressed. Not really. Jirov is one of those guys I was glad to see go down the toilet; meanwhile, Tarver is on top of the world. Funny how things work out, isn't it? :D

Is this the hilglight of the fight?! Or is this antonio gassed?
lol, a little bit of both. It was fairly sloppy, but Tarver was out of gas in the 3rd and Jirov kept coming.
There wasn't anything overly exciting in there, I just thought some people might like to see them in the ring as they never fought as pros.
