I am definitely trying to make it seem like anything other than the fact that before he even made the olympic team Antonio was patterning his career after the guy he would eventually make his name off of. In 1995, at the same time he was quoted as saying that, I ran into Antonio at a post fight party. It was the night Roy beat Tony Thornton and the party was in the parking lot of Roy's gym in Pensacola. Antonio hadn't even made the olympic team yet but there he was watching RJ up close and personal. Then eight years later he ends up beating the man. THAT is what I was getting atComment

I don't see anything prophetic about that at all. They knew each other practically their entire lives.Comment

Plus Tarver called Roy out his entire career. Who else could he make his name off of at that point?Comment

OF COURSE they knew each other all that time... but they both knew many other people, too... and the fact that Roy was even still there as the top dawg EIGHT years after Tarver made his remarks is somethingComment
