Tarver vs Rocky!


Wednesday, October 26 2005
ESPN Hollywood has reported that Antonio Tarver is slated for the role of Mason Dixon in the new movie "Rocky Balboa." Despite rumors that Roy Jones Jr. had the part, Tarver claims on camera, "You're looking at Mason Dixon. I'm the heavyweight champion of the world and unfortunately Rocky's got to come back to see me. ..I want to dispel a rumor Roy Jones may be in the film. We will need folks to knock out along the way but that's the biggest part he'll get, ha ha.
On shoot date: "I believe we're gonna go around December 1st. I believe that's gonna happen. Very very aware that start date is a real possibility."
On filming: "We are doing this reality style. We'll be filming in Las Vegas the weekend of the Jermaine Taylor Hopkins fight after they jump off the scale, we'll jump on, after they do their presser, then we'll do ours."
On his 10-year friendship with Sylvester Stallone: "He's the director, he wrote the film so he told me he wrote it with me in mind, that's a big compliment."

hmm

This will only be good if Tarver ends up getting KO'd. The dude needs to be smashed even if it is only on film. He's a good fighter but I'm getting tired of seeing him everywhere.

Prime Rocky KO1 Tarver.

It cannot be denied that Tarver is a huge fan of Roy and is slightly obsessed with him...maybe more than slightly. These corny ass jokes never stop. Less talk and more action is what we need. No matter what Tarver does, Jones is always bigger than him.

I still think Tyson would have been a much better choice.. But his voice messed him up for the part...

Hopkins is too skinny for Stalone.. but so is Tarver


Evander would have looked NICE! but he is just too old However with the magic of Holywood, they can make him look 25 again

Best comment Tarver laid on Roy was after the Kentucky Derby of 04 he said he bet on Jones to win...SMARTY JONES!! He had all the commentators rolling while Roy sat on his couch and pouted. Tarver owns Roy.
