    Well he is 46 years old. He's not gonna have prime Manny Pacquiao footwork at this age. But yeah, Cunningham is up there too, 39.

        You know that's the plan. Haymon didn't sign Tarver for nothing.

        PBC fighters. In-house.

        Age against youth.

        The draw kinda killed the luster though.

              im so glad the golden era of heavyweights is back and the US is back on top

              wilder vs tarver will be a hell of a fight! finally a break from the eurobums and a return to nba level skill

              two true world class slick athletes (starts masturbating) clashing for the heavyweight title at last! sweet slick suga

                Haymon had Tarver LOOOOOONG before he had Wilder.

                  So it works out perfect!

                  My theory was Haymon paid Tarver's ******** debt and got him out of jail to set him up for Wilder.

                  I could be wrong but that would be a fight he could recoup his money from.

                  Antonio Tarver has just been released from a Florida jail ... and tells TMZ Sports he plans to hit the gym tomorrow to restart his boxing career so he can pay back his $200,000 debt. Tarver was locked up in FL on a warrant from Nevada -- stemming from allegations he never repaid the Wynn Las Vegas on a $200,000 gambling marker from a 2012 gambling binge.

                    I think what really showed was that flabby gut and that terrible conditioning. I thought Tarver was gona take a knee he was hunched over so bad second half of the fight. In his defense he was never really hurt, but idk if that's a testimate of his good chin, or Cunningham's lack of punching power. I think I'll go with the latter. Don't think Tarver can stand up to a top class heavyweight.

                      Theres a fine line between the lower weight heavyweights and cruiserweights. I agree he was a great cruiserweight, but the CW division is becoming packed with some real bad@sses. I wasn't surprised Huck got knocked out tonight. And Glowacki isn't anything special compared to what is coming/already here at CW. And I thought Huck beat Povetkin. I'll eat my words if I'm wrong. Eastern Europeans man. Maybe it's the economy. Lol
