    Can I get some Respect?

    He has complained on and off again about gaining credibility. Yes we all know that he gave Roy Jones Junior all he could handle in thier trilogy, went twelve rounds with the Executioner, bested Montell Griffin, (Eric Harding and Glen Johnson in rematches)....So why hasn't Antonio Tarver gained any sort of credibility? Should he be seeking to fight (December 1, 2007) an under-serving character by the name of George " Honey Boy" Blades (recently K.O'ed, courtesy of Zsolt Eredei, June 16, 2007)? Since the lost to B-hop Tarver has come back to beat Elvir Muriqi (O.K tune up fight) in a 12 round MD. What does Tarver need to do to gain the credibility and notoriety that he seeks?

    Tarver's just one of those fighters I love to hate. Something about the guy just irks me in the worst way. He's overtly ****y and hasn't earned the right to be taken seriously IMO. Chad Dawson will tee off on that milk-dud looking head of his if they ever meet in the ring and stop bull****ting.

    Once Chad beats his ass Tarver will retire and go back to smoking crack.

      I can't see Tarver ever regaining credibility after the Hopkins loss... there's nothing worse than a fighter with no heart.

        I can't stand Tarver and it doesn't help he won't fight Dawson. That would have helped him gain credibility.

          Tarver is ducking Dawson the same way he accused Roy jones of ducking him when he was at the top. He is a hypocrite and deserves to exposed as such.
          Thinking that you're too good for a prime top light-heavy if a ***** move.

            Zsolt Eredei the Light Heavyweight champ from Germany is another fight to consider.

                Your name keeps reminding me of stepmom for some reason. I guess its the lettering.

                    You can change your username by paying points. Goto vbplaza menu, then most sold and look for the "change username" option.
