According to aussies, "you become a legend by beating a legend". Green beat a 40 plus Roy and now a 40 plus Tarver beat Green! Oh wait...Tarver already beat Roy twice almost 10 yrs ago!!

Sorry aussies! lol

I'm very happy for Tarver, I was getting sick of Green.

Much props to tarver at least he has the balls to go up to heavyweight and cruiserweight and heavyweight to fight. For my money Tarver has the greater legacy then bhop-less he was the first man to knock off rjj and was the light heavyweight king and he when up to cruiserweight and got a ko. bhop-less is scared and been avoiding James Toney request of a catch-weight fight at 200 pounds and he ducked Danny green and was constantly ducking Dawson until Dawson suffered a close lose to pascal but I saw that fight as a win for Dawson. Toney and Tarver KO bhop-less

Much props to Tarver I’m thinking he's head and shoulders above bhop-less in legacy comparison. It's rare in this day an age that an African-American fighter gets a k.o over a guy that is considered in the top of their division. Thanks Tarver for actually walking the talk, now can you go knockout Floyd Punkweather for us.

Amazing Tarver. I never expected this after his last fight, great performance.
One step up to far for Green i'm afraid.

Did anybody actually see the fight? Antonio Tarver's fights are usually pretty boring with a few big shots here and there. I'm glad for him though. I've come to like him much more as a commentator then I ever did as a fighter. He seems so much more down to earth and realistic as a sportscastor.

Btw, in the 2nd picture (I think it's the 2nd) - it looks like Tarver was pushing Green down. Was it a legit knockdown or did Tarver help him to the floor with a shove?

By memory, that pic is misleading, that is not the KD they got caught up and Green when down on a knee, the action just continued.

The genuine KD was the second of the round, Green landed on the ropes and should have been called a KD, moments later came the KD that was officially called.

Tarver got two KD's in that round.

second and third, same scenerio
that was in rd 1 and it wasn't counted
but in the same round tarver did send green reeling to the ropes which could have easily been scored as a knockdown

Yep, that what happened.

The first one should have been called as well because the ropes barely held him up, the second was definitely legit.
