Is Antonio Tarver in trouble?

[Xecutioner]

tarver doesnt like people crowding his space, hes much more comfortable against people who try to out box him. johnson is definately going to give him fits once he gets in close but tarvers one punch ko power just might save his ass again. that left is just too devastating for me to pick against

[Mr. Violence]

I think Tarver wins this one, he seemed the more accurate/crisper puncher against Roy.

i agree with you there, tarver is the cleaner fighter

Tarver will win this fight by a KO. Johnson takes too many punches flush. He was almost out on his feet against Jones in round five of their fight. I see Tarver taking him out if he gets a clean opening. This will be a fight I've been looking forward to since Johnson beat Jones. It will be good.

Clearly Tarver's the favorite going into this fight.When Johnson is done beating Tarver Saturday night,what excuses will you all make to not give Johnson the credit he deserves?

4days away

Hopkins says Johnson isn't a hard hitter. I don't think he can hurt Antonio Tarver enough to take full control of the fight, if he doesn't knock Antonio Tarver out, Antonio Tarver will knock him out or win it on the cards..

Johnson will surley come to dance, but I think Tarver will be just to good for him. I'm thinking it could be a pretty good fight though.

I agree on that one although I want to see Johnson win!

Tarver will beat him decisively.....either by UD or late round stoppage.


Johnson is a journeyman with one decent fight under his belt. He beat RJJ while RJJ wasn't even letting his hands go. Johnson is an average fighter at best....and Tarver is better than people give him credit for. He does talk alot......that's why people root against him. He'll beat RJJ again too.

I agree Tarver wins this fight but Johnson was in no way almost out on his feet against Jones.

[scramwarrior]

I pick Tarver by decision. Tarver is the more proven out of the two and at this point, that is all I can use as my basis for the fight.

BTW,Johnson never went down in his fight against a primed Hopkins.DLH got Kayoed by a B-Hop bodyshot,Johnson got hit with way more of those bodyshots and never went down.

thats cause johnson is a hell of alot bigger that DLH.
