What if Tarver had signed with Roy Jones?

[Moschino045]

"Roy Jones tried to sign me as an amateur," said Tarver. "I was on the phone with these guys from HBO and I told them, 'No, I can't sign with Roy Jones because I'm campaigning at light heavyweight. That's a conflict of interest.' When you tell a guy that in his face, in front of these guys, when I hadn't even turned pro yet, can they not see my vision?"

I heard RJJ and Tarver fought in da final of the 1982 Florida Games and RJJ won but Tarver thought he was really robbed and quit boxing til he was in his 20s or some **** (dinny get back into boxing til he saw RJJ at olympics and thought 'wot da ****, i was better than him once, i could do what he does')
