Tarver Weighs In At 172!, What does this mean?

Dawson by KO. Hope so, this fight sucks... Dawson just needs to get rid of him so he has big fights in the future, I mean why did they have to fight again? It made no sense... shitty contract!

I'll take that.:boxing: Sigged :boxing:

Chad is too good. Tarver has a chance, but Chad knows that and will be cautious as he wins rounds. We'll see though.

It means he's old and desperate to turn back the clock.

He knows what the critics are saying and he knows this is a pointless fight, but he doesn't care. It's a win/win situation for him, Dawson should give him a beating to remember.

Tarver looks jacked!!

Anyone wanna do my 10k to your 30k Tarver beats Dawson??

He won rematches against Harding, Johnson, and Jones because he was "game" in the first fights. You can even make a case that was he was weight drained against Hopkins. He looked like shit against Dawson and couldn't do anything to beat him, he won't do anything different in the second fight but be a little bit more competitive. Tarver was knocked down and had his jaw broken against Harding.

It means he probably hit his target weight a day ahead of schedule. Don't read anything into it, not a big deal. I love to watch (but not listen to) Tarver, he's one of the truly random events in the universe. On any given day....no, in any given second, he's capable of beating the best in dramatic fashion, or losing to the worst with a lackluster performance, and you just never know what the hell you're going to see until the leather starts flying. Gonna be glued to HBO tomorrow night. Just to say it up front, I think Tarver is going to be right with his Gods, and will put Dawson's lights out. Dawson is just better fighter, what did he show in the first fight that you think he can beat Dawson? The only way I see Tarver beating Dawson is if Dawson takes it easy on him, but this time Dawson is going for the knock out.

I know the photos you are talking about i saw the same thing, he looked prime and ready, dont count Tarver out of this one guys, his rematches are usually his best performances.

This has to be one of if not the lightest weight Tarver ever posted on the scale. Is he in supreme condition or is he weight drained?

I got almost all my points wrapped up in the Ward-Miranda fight or else id put a small wager on Tarver even, nothing big though since im just not sure :eek:

Gotcha.....i have a feeling Tarver may surprise with a decision. That'd be awesome. Nothing against Chad, but it would be another great storyline in modern LHW boxing. If the fight is more competitive, it will vindicate HBO for buying it. Did they see something 99% of forum posters didn't? :P

Ah I'm convinced Tarver will go 12, and do better than he did in the first fight. I thought you were thinking he'd get Ko'd. Nevermind so :boxing: Gotcha.....i have a feeling Tarver may surprise with a decision.

how bout 10k Tarver goes 12? Ah I'm convinced Tarver will go 12, and do better than he did in the first fight. I thought you were thinking he'd get Ko'd. Nevermind so :boxing:

He looked good in photos that I saw like he was in great shape I know the photos you are talking about i saw the same thing, he looked prime and ready, dont count Tarver out of this one guys, his rematches are usually his best performances.

Or just in awesome shape? He looked good in photos that I saw like he was in great shape

I think so. I've said a few times I have a feeling Tarver may win, or at least it may be more competitive. I could be way off though :sad: No i think your right, Tarver knows this is the last chance, i think he trained his ass off and is taking this extremely serious ALA Roy Jones 2.

Yeah I'll take a bet with that if you want. I dunno, 20K? Or were you speaking generally lol how bout 10k Tarver goes 12?
