Comments Thread For: Antonio Tarver Wants a Homecoming Defense in Orlando

[TaurusJ27]

Wouldn't be surprised if he show's up at the hopkins-dawson fight.

How about he wins a legit world title before he gets a homecoming?

Seriously why is it that the IBO belt gets so much play at Cruiserweight? Danny Green was a fake ass bum of a champ and if Tarver wants recognition he should fight one of real champions at his weight.

real championS ?

there is only one champion at 200lbs, and that's Cunningham cause he already beat everybody

all of the other titles are paper titles under those circumstances, WBO, IBO,.. all the same

How about Steve Cunningham? He's been calling Tarver out, but Tarver seems to want none of it.

For good reason... USS would put on a clinic.

Cunningham lost to Adamek not a big puncher.

He was dropped a couple of times too.

If the Magic Man hits him, he won't get up.

Too bad Cunningham isn't a legend since Tarver would have another legend notch on his belt (Glen Johnson, Roy Jones, Danny Green).

Danny Green would beat Zsolt.

Not a chance. Zsolt would tax Danny Green's sorry ass. Wouldn't knock him out but he'd shut him out 12-0.

didn't Green have a rematch clause?

And... Cunningham still boxed Adamek's ears off and hurt him a couple times in that fight. There was a reason Adamek didn't entertain the possibility of a rematch... and I don't blame him.

"The Line" would get outboxed, easily. USS owns cruiser, I'd be surprised if Tarver looked in his direction.

Tarver will not fight anyone tough. at 43 years the marginally talented overrated pug has little chance of actually beating a contender at heavy or cruiser. But a pay check is a paycheck and who would actually buy a ticket to see the black slender emaciated thin pencil fight??

[vinny2006]

Cunningham, Hopkins or any fighter that has an aggresive fighting style will be able to beat Tarver. If the fighter gets physical with Tarver, he will wear him down and knock him out. Tarvers not going to be knocked out, because he will quit first. Remember against Hopkins, he said " Is my eye cut, I'll quit".
