    Is Tarver Crazy like a fox....or just crazy???

    "I think I have so much more to give to the game. People are dying for a guy in the heavyweight division who has a face and a name and has some credibility. That's what I bring to the table. You look at the American landscape and we don't have anything out there. So I will give it a try until they beat me. I look at it like I am undefeated at heavyweight. And I am not fighting a dead man. Aguilera is a credible guy and I will see where I stand right off the bat." Antonio Tarver


    Being the face of HW??? doubt it.........but he could make some noise in a weak ass div..........

    I wonder what weight he plans on being at... maybe 210 - 215?

    I can't see him putting that much muscle mass on, he's never been a real musclar kind of guy, and he's over 40 years old.

    He's gonna have a gut, and he's gonna be a lot slower and his pop isn't going to register well at heavyweight IMO.

        205 - 210 tops.......can't see him coming in any heavier and being effective.....he is gonna have to rely on being faster than everyone at HW and play the "D" game...and out box kats....and try not to get hit.......get most wins by UD...highly unlikely??? yeah.......but not impossible........

          If you're not fighting the K bros or Haye in the HW division than anyone has a chance to make some noise. It's mainly past-it's and lazies scattered from 4th to the bottom of that division.

          Ask Adamek. He's making millions exploiting the hell out of it.

              This is like Chris Byrd going to light heavyweight but in reverse.

                He was a big LHW who could easily have been a CW so probably no more than what you are suggesting.

                Though he may not be a heavy hitter at HW he is still reasonably fast and would be faster than many of his opponents in addition to having good technique.

                I wish him the best and look forward to seeing what he can do, he has got my interest that is for sure.

                  Tarver is a victim of TBS showing too much Rocky VI. He's believing his own reruns.
