    He's not really talked about a great deal over here. No casual fans will know much about him at all.

      Popular over here?

      I don't know anyone who knows him as Antonio Tarver, a few know of him as Mason Dixon

            He's only known by hardcore Boxing fans, I like the guy, seems very friendly outside of the ring. Pretty good fighter in his prime.

              He's know by boxing fans otherwise he would only be recognised by anyone who's watched Rocky.

                i was watching the primetime PPV and they had tarver give his thoughts on the froch-dirrel fight and it seemed like his personality appeals to the UK. it seems like they enjoyed having him there as a commentator

                    they are all drunk, course they liked him. Im half cut and i liked him to, just because he mentioned rocky....

                    I dont mind him, he talks sense.
