      he narrowly lost to Jones the first time. He is far too overrated. Beating Johnson will do nothing. Tarver is a phony. People want to call him great because he has a fan friendly accesble personality. **** him.

        Tarver is good, great... i haven't seen enough to believe it. i think he'll beat Johnson, however, i'd rather see Johnson win. Everyone is taking it for granted that Johnson is a bum and Tarver will walk right through him. Maybe so, maybe i hate Tarver for Koing RJJ ( i don't hate tarver, i just don't like him ). Sorry guys, i like Glencoffe Johnson, maybe the Jamaican hasn't found his prime as fighter until now

            He showed he had no heart in his loss to a past prime jones and got his ass beat by harding. only real claim to fame is his loss to jones then of course the knock out win. The KO of jones looked impressive until a tough journeyman did it again a few months later. Tarver is way overated.

              I dont think Tarver will ever be considered "Great".He'l be known for being the first to KO Jones Jr but thats about all he'l be known for because Johnsons whoopin Tarver December 18th!


              IMO,the winner of Tarver-Johnson should be named FIGHTER OF THE YEAR

                  Wow. What a hater. He beats RJJ convincingly and he sucks? I guess that means RJJ really really really sucks.

                  Glen Johnson isn't anything great, but he's the No. 1 contender out there and the next logical fight for Tarver.

                  If Tarver were Roy Jones, like after RJJ beat Toney, he'd be fighting competiton like Rick Frazier, Otis Grant, Derrick Harmon, the milkman, the guy at the barber shop and the hobo catching the train.

                  If Tarver is dog****, what does that make Jones for losing to him and getting KTFO'd by him???

                  I dont think Tarver is great. Just good. Greatness comes over time that has to be earned.
