Tarver: "Bernard Hopkins is Living Off My Name"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Antonio "Magic Man" Tarver is still gunning for a rematch with Bernard Hopkins. Hopkins dominated Tarver over twelve-rounds in their 2006 light heavyweight showdown. Before he can think about Hopkins, Tarver must overcome IBF light heavyweight champion Clinton Woods on April 12 in Florida. [details]

[-Antonio-]

A blown up LMW did better.

Here is a question I once asked Antonio Tarver. You make your own mind up.

********: Antonio, if not being in the ‘Rocky’ movie meant that you would have beat Hopkins, what would your decision have been on playing that part?

Tarver: I am no dummy. I think anybody would have cut their right arm off to be in a position to co-star in a major motion picture, a franchise as big as ‘Rocky.’ That is a no-brainer. If I had it to do all over again, I would do it the same way. I do not think I lost anything but a fight and I am always able to redeem myself and put myself in position to have a rematch. But it is once in a lifetime playing in ‘Rocky.’ Ten years from now, I do not think people are going to remember me (for) losing to Bernard Hopkins. I think they are going to forever remember me for playing in ‘Rocky Balboa.’ You can always go get the DVD.

My god.
This man is so ****ing delusional its quite sad.

Hopkins is already a legend,why would he live of Tarvers name?Tarvers gotta be the most big headed boxer in the sport today,i hate the guy,he needs to worry about Woods,and hope he loses,because if Dawson gets passed Johnson,he'd do to Tarver what Jones couldent

[Mr. Ryan]

If Tarver was being serious in that interview, that is eternally sad. His own self exaltation comes before being a serious champion.

[jbin333]

Tarver Please Shut UP!!!!

If anyone's living off of anyone's name it's Tarver. His one punch knockout did wonders for Mr. Tarver. Prior to that win no one outside of Florida knew who he was. So Tarver needs to rethink his ****** statement and direct it towards himself. The best Tarver has looked since the JOnes knock-out was in last Rocky movie. Tarver is a clown and will get exposed once he fights a credible opponent. He had his chance against B-Hop and folded. So Tarver Please SHUT UP!!

Im honestly shocked that anyone can be that delusional.
To hear him speak u would think he is as smart as the next guy. Maybe its just a fame thing.

When ur in the midst of a big hyped up movie deal things get greatly distorted.

Its ****ed that he says in one breadth he will prove he is one of the greatest LHW of all time, then say no one will remember that he got his ass kicked by Hopkins!!
