    You have no idea how much coke Ray was doing or when. As I pointed out, he started to fade long before the Norris fight.

    And if you thought Tarver won the 1st fight, you have no idea how a fight is scored. Even giving Tarver a draw in that fight is suspect with Roy sweeping the championship rounds.

    He looked faded in the 1st Tarver fight. Your notion that he needed to be KO'd in the 1st fight to have the weight be a factor in non sense.

    The weight was not specificly the reason, it just added to it. He was not the same fighter at 35 that he was years before, because like Ali and Leonard, he was a guy that relied heavilly on speed and reflex, and in both their cases they began to fade around the same age in their respective careers.

    And suggesting Roy looked the same in the 1st Tarver fight that he did in his previous 4 fights is utter non sesne. When you add that notion to your suggestion you thought Tarver won the 1st fight with Jones it's becoming more and more clear how much your opinion is worht here.
    Sorry you lost the argument. You're not making any sense now. For the last time, please do not mention Roy in the same sentence with Ali & Ray.

      You've had no response to the holes pointed out in the non sense you were tyring to say, and now you've resorted to just being petty.

      I thought you were leaving this site and not coming back Parodis. What ever happened with that?

        I messed reading your idiotic posts. Lol, you like to argue until the next day. Everyone that debates with you, they end the argument with you, because you will never stop, even if you get owned, you keep posting garbage after it.

        Guess what, this will be my last post on this thread.

          That pictures sums you up nicely.

          When you can't back up what you say, start in with the non sense.

          When that gets old, make a huge angry thread about how you're never coming back to this site.

          Wait 6 months, come back in hiding, and hope your original non sense doesn't give your account-in-hiding away.

          You've failed.

              Great quote by Tarver during the interview with Steven A on ESPN. Steven A was asking why Tarver snapped at Larry Merchant after the third fight with Roy, and Tarver said he's sick of everyone saying Roy is shot. Tarver said if Roy is shot, then he was the one who shot him, which is a great point. By the way, Tarver is essentially dropping down to Light Heavyweight from Heavyweight (like Jones did before the first Tarver fight), so if Tarver wins, you can't blame Jones' performance in that first fight on weight loss.

              On a side note, that interview was great. Steven A and Hopkins both bashed Roy. Hopkins said he wanted to fight Tarver because he is better than Roy and also said (whether it was a mistake or not) that Tarver beat Jones three times. Steven A said Roy blew his chance to be a great fighter when he let his ego get the best of him.

              what badasses...trying to deflate roy's accomplishments when hes not there to defend himself...the both know what happned/what would have happened if they faced roy when he was in his prime.

                First of all, Jones clearly beat Tarver in their 1st fight. Anyone who doens't think so is an idiot who has no idea how a fight is scored.

                2nd, Jones was at or near 200lbs with a very low body fat %. It was all muscle that he shed. He also dropped it and beat a hungry bigger natural Lt Heavy in Tarver.

                Tarver is dropping bulk weight (still remains to be seen how he handles it) to fight a 41 year old Middleweight.
                The fight was close but Jones clearly took it in the championship rounds. Anyone that scored it for Tarver must have got too excited when tarver got jones in the corner and awards him 10-8 rounds for that. Jones should have made tarver go to heavyweight to fight him then retire

                  Am I the only one who remembers Tarver closing his eyes and swinging for the fences? The punch was pure luck, watch it, slow it down, look at tarvers face, he closes his eyes swings away and braces for impact. Luckiest punch ive ever seen in my life. And the only reason Tarver won the 3rd fight was because Roy stopped fighting. If you watched it, When roy was throwing he was landing at will, i mean he slapped both his feet then punched tarver right in his mouth. That fight was roy's to win and he gave it away. Dont be surprised if you see Hopkins win this one decisevly. Tarver is the biggest coward in the sport. He desrves no respect or props for anything hes done. He's had one real victory against glenn johnson and now wont ever fight him again because he knows johnson would prolly floor him in the rematch.
