Hahaha I know. And that moron TheMachine says a prime Jones beats Tarver in one round. Too bad a young Jones got murked by Tarver in the amateurs, an 'undefeated' champ Jones got absolutely ****ing crushed in two rounds by Tarver, and a shell of Jones (thanks to Tarver) got bitch slapped around the ring. Man In Black in the house, whats up my man?
Jones beat Tarver in a close, disputable fight in the AM's.
In the first fight Jones was weight drained and was NO DOUBT 60% of what he used to be from then onwards...

Roy Jones defeated Tarver in the amateurs.
Jones by KO1
Yall musta forgot

tarver is a great fighter, but resume wise, and accomplishments wise, you gotta know roy is better?
Based on what moron? The fact that he got his ass handed to him by a past prime Tarver 3 times?

The hate Tarver gets is wrong. Tarver was a very good fighter, and styles make fights hence his blitzing of Jones, and him taking a ass whipping against Hopkins.
my opinion is that tarver just had the style to beat roy. some guys that roy beat would run over tarver (toney, hopkins, ex.). but styles make fights.
and i'm rooting for tarver tonight, hope he wins.
Tarver talks a really good game> I really believe he will look better in this fight than the first one. He's @ 172 that means something nad his career is one the line he's not just going to rollover
Dude you are a moron, if you talk about a legend like this you should be ashamed to call yourself a boxing fan.
Your opinion has been taken into account...and discarded.
Jones didn't handle any version of Tarver period.
And Tarver did something Jones couldn't do, handle Glen Johnson.
/Thread....thanks for coming out kids.
Classic dicktuck. Pull your skirt down like Roy did after Tarver punched a hole right through his head and his legacy.
Dude you are a moron, if you talk about a legend like this you should be ashamed to call yourself a boxing fan.
Johnson was a shell of his former self when he fought Tarver?? Yeah, RJ really took it to him. That earthquake from Roy's head hitting the canvas really ****ed up Johnson's knees. Just like RJ was washed up when Tarver handed him his ass as an amateur and in the pros. A RJ fan shitting on Tarver is as ironic as it gets. THE GUY HANDED ROY HIS ASS. You should be singing Tarver's praises.
So was Reggie Johnson
Eric Harding
Clinton Woods
Montell Griffith.
Man those guys sucked (all top 10 in the division)
Yeah...I mean Tarver destroyed Jones in two rounds, destroyed him in the third fight, and then convincingly beat Johnson in the rematch (the same Johnson that put RJ in a coma)
egreezy...Tarver is one of my all time favorites. So is Hopkins. But the hate Tarver gets and the lack of respect is pathetic.
This the hardest I seen anybody ever ride for Tarver. Gotta admit he's got a point w/ the amateur/pro wins over Jones; and his willingness to fight Chad when Hopkins was reluctant.
What a joke. Jones fought Tarver in November, then again in May and he was weight drained yet continued to fight at that weight. So he was weight drainined in November and 6 months later.
Hopkins had a good fight. Tarver was concentrating on his fame at that time. Can't blame him for that.
I know...the guy is a fool. I'm glad to see somebody around here isn't jealous Tarver looks better at 40 than they did at 20. ****in haters.
Roys legacy shits all over Tarver... Roys a top 50 atg... tarver doesnt crack the top 100...
tarver took advantage of roy after he came down from heavyweight...
When he finally faced a fighter that wasnt drained.. he was BRUTALLY outclassed by hopkins.
I forgot Glen Jonson was weight drained. Idiot.
This shit is poetic man. Classic.
You have the gift that Tarver has a sharp and a quick wit
Much respect. It's hilarious the way people try to shit on Tarver and his legacy because they have a personal grudge against him.
And Reed, you don't get it, you're punch drunk like your idol. At least when Tarver does an interview he's coherent and can speak properly.
;5251746']did'nt jones beat tarver when they were kids?
Tarver handed him his ass as an amateur and even Roy admitted it...I think Roy won the points though (controversial as always) but Tarver might have even won. The bottom line is he ****ed Roy up. He talked about it before the first pro fight.
