After the Johnson-Jones fight, Tarver said that Roy was washed up and should never fight again. Now, who's jumping at the chance to fight him!

Money speaks alot louder than words.

Exactly and besides, if he KO's roy again it will make him look even better.

If he looses well everyone would just expect that because the old roy jones showed up.

If he KO's Roy, then Roy really is shot. If he loses to Roy, then something was wrong with Roy the other two fights, and he proves that in his top form he's still the man in the division.

Either way, I think this is a good fight for Jones, as long as he doesn't lose a decision.

that's pathetic when roy's fans make excuses for him. rjj is extremely talented, but tarver is talented as well. to deny tarver's skill shows some lack of boxing knowledge from how i see it. first fight should've been a draw. neither of them won by a decisive margin.

revenge match was purely tarver's. perfect shot combined with perfect timing.

i'd say they're fighting on the same level, which should make this rubbermatch very interesting.

Tarver said it to cheapen Johnson's win. He wanted to be viewed as the only one to beat Roy Jones "when he was good."

Tarver's a ***** and knows that Roy's loss brought him attention at his late age. Then his victory was cheapened/lessened when Johnson did the same thing to Roy but in more spectacular fashion.

I wouldnt go as far as to say it was more spectacular.

Sure he worked and worked and worked on Jones all night and didn't let up, but it was pretty obvious Roy wasn't all there.

Tarver KO'ed RJJ with the only meaningful punch he threw in that fight. I thought that was spectacular when I saw it.

When I saw him loose to glen , I just gave the win to a shot RJJ, not the workrate of GJ.

I agree Tarve is a ***** though

Well, I think Tarver only threw like 8 punches that night. I wasn't impressed at all because he was losing the fight.
