Antonio Tarver, Chad Dawson Interview Transcript

[Flawless.]

Tarver's eloquence shows a higher iq and much better verbal mastery.



“Tampa, get ready because here we come, ... It's going to be an electric night of boxing, and once and for all we will put the nail in Roy Jones' coffin. May he rest in peace.

”Beyond a shadow of a doubt, Do you have any excuses tonight Roy Jones? And seven punches later - seven is the number of completion - seven punches later is Roy Jones no more. So you have to look back, it's a powerful, powerful statement. I told Roy Jones when he was the heavyweight champion, You're not even the best fighter in Florida. And I got to prove it. So it's a spiritual thing when you think about it, man. And I'm just so thankful. Going through the transition from amateur to the pros - they can't deny me no more. I refuse to be denied. And I told the world that it will recognize, before it's all over, they will recognize. And now they do.”

Who gets excited by this??

[Flawless.]

It’s not all about vocabulary, it’s about timing and how you say it. Mayweather knows how to do that perfectly, hence why he gets so much hate.

People with intelligence and mastery of the English language.
He ain't gonna do **** is like a pimply faced high school kid teasing his buddy on the short bus

Who gets excited by this??

You're just reading txt so the words don't carry the tone of confidence and conviction carried as opposed to hearing and seeing him say it. You actually know this dude believes every word he says and Tarver isnt the type of fighter to retract what he says after the fight, he'll say dude was a good fighter etc, but he spoke what he felt was the truth and people respect that. If you get more excited about what Floyd does knowing that its just for show, then more power to you. But for fans like me, someone who believes what they say and are genuine about what they say is much more interesting.

That **** was priceless. Forever will it be included in boxing highlights.

The LHW division today badly needs some new blood and Chad Dawson is one of those new bloods. I think he has all the talent and skill to bring life back to the LHW division. Yeah I know their is some doubters judging from Dawson's previous fight with Glen Johnson, but I think that was just an off night because of the change of trainers.

If Dawson is good as some people says he is, then he should be able to beat Tarver. I mean hardly anyone was talking about the LHW division until Dawson became champion. If Dawson beats Tarver on October 11, he should pursue a rematch with Glen Johnson.

Also, if anyone cares to observe, Tarver hardly ever uses fillers such as "umm". He speaks really fluently which is a sign of education and intellegence. (no ****)

He is better educated and smarter than Mayweather, but Mayweather brings people to the show and bring hate out of them. They pay to see Mayweather lose and Mayweather can hype up any fight. Mayweather is smarter in the ring that is a plus

Hop and Toney used to go on rants that were hilarious.
I don't see that stuff as much maybe because I am spending more time here than those other sites where they showed videos of them.
Maybe some guys are just mellowing out with age, who knows.

I always say to each his own.
