    Comments Thread For: Tarver vs Wlodarczyk in Play For April 28 on Showtime?

    According to promoter Andrzej Wasilewski, there is a "75% chance" that a deal will get closed for a cruiserweight unification between champions Krzysztof Wlodarczyk (46-2-1, 33KOs) of the WBC and Antonio Tarver (29-6, 20KOs) of the IBO. Wasilewski says the negotiations are "moving in the right direction and we could very well sign a contract in the near future."

        regardless of the paper titles involved, the best fighting the best is good news, and Tarver beating Green makes him one of the best, no matter which belt he grabbed in the process

        don't forget the last 2 lineal heavyweight champs was/is carrying the IBO title around

          WBC ordered him to rematch Palacios. Why he would face Tarver? Did beating Green earned you a title shot? WTF?

            Agreed, at least somebody in the world of boxing is trying to unify some $ hit.

              This fight can get Tarver into the mix as a top cruiserweight, provided he wins. I think his skills will be too much for Wlodarczyk.

                TARVER beat GREEN more convincly than DIABLO(he was under on points over all three judges' cards before the KO);ANTONIO can outbox and punish KRYSTSZOF really easy also at 43y;i'm a fan of DIABLO but TARVER is better...

                  I'll be watching Hopkins-Dawson II anyway. I am actually very interested in that fight. I'll record this one probably.
