Did anyone score Tarver-Johnson?

I had it 117-111 giving Johnson the 5th/9th and 11th

I thought it was pretty close. Obviously Tarver's the much slicker, more skilled boxer - but then we knew that anyway. I thought the commentary team were a little harsh on Johnson at times, whose incessant pressure did earn him a few rounds.

I had him nick the first two, which were pretty even, and I had to score the sixth even. Tarver (if I remember correctly) did a lot of dominating work in the last minute - but Johnson had already been backing him up for the first two.

Add to this rounds 5 and 11 and I made it 115-114 Tarver.

An okay fight, but not as great as the first? Round Eleven was a classic though.



What's with Larry Merchant and his "final thoughts"? Has he always done this? He comes over like a dazed Jerry Springer - or should that be Jerry Atrick?

You score even rounds? You're a joke. Tarver won that fight 9 rounds to 3 on my card. Not even close.

Call me crazy, but i had it a draw. I scored the 12th for Johnson because Tarver didn't want to fight. I also gave him 5, 7(questionable, i know), 8, 9, & 11.

typical idiot fan who thinks Johnson is a pound-for-pound great or something

who are you and why do you exist. Put away the meth and take a bong hit, son.

There should be no third match here. Tarver won both fights, and improved the 2nd over the 1st by at least a 2 point margin in the scoring.

Larry Merchant, HBO commentator - scores even rounds.

I had this fight way closer than the HBO commentary team. I know I scored the first 2 rounds for Johnson then alot of the middle and late rounds for Johnson.

the HBO commentary team (i.e. jim lampley, harold lederman, and especially larry merchant) are biased and blind. i cant even exlain what or how they score.
