    I've been hit plenty of times with a Forearm and a punch from the same people...punches hurt a lot worse, even with gloves. Hell, when someone lands a foreman on you, you kind of feel relieved he just missed with his fist.


    Ok, have to go rebuild my brain-cells after this conversation.

      You are starting to get a little bit pathetic.

        come on man stop covering for your boy...tarver got hit, he stumbled off balance, put his glove on the floor, and took an 8 count...if he was that devastated, why didn't your boy follow up and go for the finish?

            Pardon me but isn't that suppossed to happen when you move up in weight. I don't think its common for someone to move from mw to hw and still have the same impact..I could be wrong of course.

            That's part of what makes it so challenging right?

              Roy hit Calzaghe over and over with punches and Joe smiled at him that's a fact go watch the fight again. Prove me wrong. Roy elbowed Calzaghe in the temple like some kind of wrestling move and even then the champ refused to fall until RJJ lean some weight on his neck.

                  Remember that time when mama came home late from her gentleman friends house when daddy was at the welfare office. She slapped you and knocked you into the wall. Ring any bells? Well that wall was like Tarver's glove it simply stopped him from being put down.

                    Roy hit Joe in the FACE, not the Temple.
                    Now what could have hurt him that is on the face? NOSE...and mabye chin. He seemed to hit them both.
